Thanksgiving Catering Service: Private Chef Feast, Cooked in Your Kitchen
$2,820.00
This Thanksgiving, skip the grocery runs and the dishes. A CHEFIN private chef arrives at your home, office, or venue to cook a full holiday feast from scratch — golden roast turkey, classic sides, all the trimmings — then serves it family-style and cleans up completely. It’s the caterer’s convenience without reheating a single tray; just a fresh, chef-cooked Thanksgiving dinner, from your own kitchen.
What’s Included:
- 3 entrées, 3 sides, 2 salads, and 2 desserts — all designed for sharing
- 1 Private Chef traveling to your location
- Full kitchen-to-table service by your Personal Chef
- All premium, locally sourced ingredients and seasonal produce
- Shopping, preparation, cooking, serving, and complete cleanup
- A multi-course menu customized to your preferences and dietary needs
- Optional holiday table styling upon request
The price is for groups of 6–10 guests and includes ten large, shareable dishes served family-style. If you’re hosting fewer than 6 or more than 10 guests, please inquire for a custom proposal.
