Personal Chef & Private Dining FAQs in Benahavís
What is the difference between a personal chef and a private chef in Benahavís?
In Benahavís, people use both terms to mean the same thing: a chef for hire who comes to your home or villa and cooks for you. “Personal chef” often implies ongoing help during a stay, while “private chef” is frequently used for a special private dining experience, but the service can be tailored either way.
Can a chef cook at my home or holiday villa in Benahavís?
Yes. Our private chefs cook directly in your kitchen in Benahavís, bringing ingredients and planning everything in advance. We adapt to the equipment available, and we can also arrange any additional hire items if needed for private dining at your property.
What types of private dining can you do in Benahavís?
Private dining in Benahavís can be as relaxed or as formal as you want: romantic dinners, tasting menus, family-style sharing, paella and BBQ nights, sushi at home, or elegant plated service with wait staff. We design the menu and service style around your occasion and guests.
How much does it cost to hire a private chef in Benahavís?
Pricing for a private chef in Benahavís depends on guest count, menu complexity, service style (drop-off, on-site cooking, or full service), and dietary requirements. Send your date, number of guests and the type of private dining you want and we will quote quickly.
Do you offer private chef hire for a single night or for a full week in Benahavís?
Both. We do one-off chef at my home bookings in Benahavís (birthdays, celebrations, romantic dinners), and we also provide multi-day or weekly personal chef packages for villa stays, family trips, golfing holidays and corporate groups.
Can you handle allergies, gluten-free menus, vegan or vegetarian private dining in Benahavís?
Yes. Our personal chefs in Benahavís can create allergy-aware menus and offer vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and other special diets. Share any requirements in advance so we can plan ingredients, avoid cross-contamination risks and keep service smooth.
Do you provide staff and table service for private dining in Benahavís?
Yes. If you want a full private dining setup in Benahavís, we can add wait staff, bartenders and additional kitchen support. If you prefer something simpler, your chef for hire can cook, serve, and leave your kitchen clean and tidy afterwards.
Do you bring ingredients, and do you take care of shopping in Benahavís?
Yes. For private chef services in Benahavís, we can handle the full process: menu planning, ingredient shopping, cooking at your home, and clean-up. If you already have ingredients or preferences (brands, organic, specific wines), we can work with that too.
How far in advance should I book a personal chef in Benahavís?
For peak travel periods, booking a private chef in Benahavís earlier is best, especially for weekends and larger groups. If your date is soon, still message us. We can sometimes accommodate short notice depending on availability and logistics.
