How we keep the marketplace honest
Vetted chefs, visible on the page
Chefs on HieChef are reviewed by guests after completed bookings. Profiles that carry a verification badge have passed identity checks — we show that on the profile, not only in an internal flag.
You pay when you book
Messaging a chef and requesting quotes is free. Checkout is encrypted. You are not charged just for starting a conversation.
Plans change
Message your chef or speak with concierge. The cancellation window is confirmed when you book, so there are no surprise policies buried in a footer.
Reviews from real nights
We display guest reviews on chef profiles, including the ones that aren’t five stars. That is how a marketplace stays honest — and how review markup stays legitimate.
