FAQs
- Is a private chef worth it for two people?
- Date-night bookings are one of the most common requests on HieChef. You see real per-person quotes before you book, so you can decide against a restaurant night with the numbers in front of you.
- Will the chef stay in the room the whole time?
- Chefs pace courses from the kitchen and check in when you want them. Tell them in the brief if you’d like extra quiet — they plan around that.
- Can I surprise someone?
- Yes. Add a note in your request. Chefs are used to proposals, anniversaries, and “just because” nights and will keep the reveal discreet.
