Prices

Personal Chef Services

Once I've discussed what you want I will calculate a price and ask you to confirm it is acceptable. There are also fixed price options listed under set menu options , fixed price menus, and the Tapas menu.

You can if you wish choose to set a budget, in which case I will try to design a menu around that.  

If you require me for a whole day the maximum charge for my time is £200.

Where the total charge (time + ingredients + travel expenses) is greater than £100, a deposit is required to cover the cost of ingredients.

Cook With The Chef

I charge for the time I am with you at £20 per hour. In addition there is a £10 administration fee to cover the time I spend preparing for each visit, which can be considerable. I do not charge VAT.
So a 4 hour coaching session will cost you £90 (plus ingredients). If you are sharing the session with friends or family there is no extra charge (it makes no difference to me, in fact it can be more fun!). 

Ingredients, whether purchased by yourself or by me, are in addition to my time. If I am buying the ingredients on your behalf there will be a £10 charge for doing the shopping. I will present you with the till receipts on request.

Travel Expenses

Travel within the St Ives and Huntingdon areas is included at no extra. If I need to travel more than 15 miles one way to your home or cottage then I charge for the full distance travelled at 25p per mile . See example charges below.
