Who We Are

Private Chefs, Inc. was established because we believe there is a real need for an agency that specializes solely on personal chef placements run by people who, themselves, have experience working in the hospitality industry and private homes.
A private chef needs to have a service-oriented mindset, be a team player, think on his/her feet, adjust quickly to ever-changing plans and last-minute requests, and adapt to the varying needs of our clients. What PCI chefs do extremely well is accommodate those needs.

At PCI, we believe that placing a chef in a residence, estate, or yacht is a service that needs specific attention by specialists who have a unique grasp of what is needed to satisfy the client’s and chef’s needs to make a perfect long-term match.
