1. Do you sell gift certificates?
Yes! In fact, a Your Home Bistro gift
certificate is a great gourmet gift. It is a wonderful
alternative to overpriced, often stale, gourmet gift
baskets. My gourmet gift certificates are great for
hard to shop for folks who seem to have everything, new
parents, and people recovering from surgery or illness.
Gift certificates for Personal Chef Dinner Services, In-Home
Cooking Classes and Interactive Dinner Parties are
available.
2. Do you have to be rich to hire a
personal chef? How much does it cost?
My personal chef dinner service is
surprisingly affordable. A standard dinner service
includes five dinners, four servings of each and costs $375.
The price will increase if food costs are high, for example
if a client requests all organic ingredients or likes
frequent filet or lobster dishes. Unusual diet requests that
require significantly more time to research and plan menus
will also increase the cost. Additional servings can
be added for $80 per person. All groceries are
included in the price. In-Home Cooking Classes begin
at $45 per person. Interactive Dinner Party prices are based
on the menu.
3. Where are your services available?
I travel throughout the St. Louis,
Missouri metro area.
4. My kitchen is small and I have very
little cooking equipment. Will you still cook for me?
Of course! I have had no problem
cooking in even the tiniest apartment kitchens. I bring all
of my own equipment, so no need to worry about your supply.
All I need is your stove, oven, counter, sink and
refrigerator.
5. Do I need a big freezer?
No, a standard top/bottom or side by
side refrigerator freezer is fine.
6. Will you cook the meals in your home
and deliver the finished product to me?
No, it is not legal for me to cook in
my home and deliver the food because my home kitchen is not
a commercial kitchen.
7. Do I select the meals I want from a
menu?
No, menu planning is time consuming
and I know that your time is limited. I design all of the
menus based on your food preferences. If you are in the mood
for a favorite dish I will include it in your menu. You have
final menu approval and can request changes to the proposed
menu. The menu is not complete until you are happy with it.
8. Great logo! Who designed it?
Why thank you! My sister, Linda
McCool, a Kansas City artist designed it for me!
9. Who took the photos shown on your
web site?
My teenage son, Scott took all of the
photos.
10. Who designed your web site?
My site was designed by Carlos Arnavat
4, and I highly recommend him. You can reach him at carlos @ arnavat.com.
