2. Then, within 24 hours, you will get proposals from 2-5 Private Chefs.

Each proposal will show a clear menu of what the Chef is proposing to prepare and the total price to you – making it easy to compare proposals. The pricing is always all inclusive of ingredients, preparing the meal, cleanup and tip.
