A private chef experience is a fully customized service that includes menu planning, ingredient sourcing, prep in my professional kitchen, travel, equipment, on‑site cooking, service, and more. Because of the time and work involved, I don’t offer any private chef service under €100 per adult for a dinner, and that is the very lower end.
Long‑term private chef contracts begin around €1,000 per week.
I work closely with clients in their homes, and the experience only works with mutual respect. I expect the same courtesy I give my guests, and I don’t take on clients who are rude or dismissive, regardless of budget. Good manners cost nothing, and they make the entire process smoother for everyone — including the person preparing your food.
To address a common misconception: Hungary being “cheaper” does not mean the work is cheaper. The ingredients, the prep, the skill, and the hours are the same as they would be 200 or 2000 miles away. If someone expects Western European quality, it comes with Western European pricing — geography doesn’t discount the craft.
To respect everyone’s time, I only take inquiries from guests who are genuinely considering booking. If you’re unsure about budget, please review the pricing before reaching out.
