Q: What other expenses can I expect when I hire an FFK private chef in Baltimore?

Simply put, none! Our prices are all-inclusive, meaning the meal preparation, service, equipment, and cleanup are all part of the cost. We even provide insurance in the unlikely event of a mishap. We really mean it when we say there are NO hidden fees when you book with FFK. Click here to learn about our recommendations regarding gratuities.

Q: Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Whether one or several of your guests require different dishes due to dietary restrictions, your culinary professional is happy to accommodate. At the time of booking, just note the needs under “Special Instructions”, and you can discuss your options when you speak with your chef. Vegan, gluten-free, kosher, and allergy-avoidance are just a sample of the dietary needs our chefs meet.

Q: Are there menu selections for kids?

Most of our Baltimore private chefs include menu options for the younger set so children can enjoy the exciting culinary adventure, too. You can select this as a filter when you begin the booking process to ensure you only see chefs who offer children’s meals.

Q: What is your cancellation policy?

We understand that plans may change, and we strive to balance client and chef needs. We offer full refunds up to a week before your party and 50% refunds thereafter. However, to protect the work your Baltimore personal chef has done in preparation for your event, no refunds are available within 48 hours of your event.

Menu: Chef's Favorites

STANDING OVATION! 👏 Chef Brittiney knocked it out of the park! The food was absolutely delicious! She was personable, engaging, took the time to explain each dish and even shared some personal stories of why and how she prepared each course. We felt like we were in a five star restaurant, with the Chef taking the time to come to our table and personally introduce each course! We had a wonderful time! Thank you, Chef Brittiney for making our evening a FABULOUS and MEMORABLE occasion that we will not soon forget!

Definitely recommend Chef Benjamin! He was easy to coordinate with and arrived promptly. It felt very comfortable having him in our home as we wrangled all the kids to go to bed before dinner. The food was DELICIOUS - everything lived up to expectation and it made for a very special evening while on vacation with friends. Having a foodie experience at our Joshua Tree rental home was everything we'd hoped for!

Menu: Mediterranean, Please

Chef Emily was absolutely amazing! She prepared a birthday dinner for 20 guests, and every dish was outstanding, with truly exquisite flavors! What impressed me most was that her assistant canceled at the last minute, and Emily handled everything herself without missing a beat. She was incredibly organized, efficient, and professional, and left my kitchen absolutely spotless! Her talent and dedication are exceptional. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Menu: Lets give 'em something to Taco bout!

Chef Kevan was fantastic. Communication was top notch prior to the event. He showed up on time, made a fantastic taco bar with all of the fixings, plus a tasty salad and yummy churros. My whole group raved about the food and I would not hesitate to hire him again. And, he and his wife left my kitchen spotless!

Menu: Steakhouse

Chef Michael helped me curate a delicious fall menu for a dinner party at my home. We started with a pomegranate lemonade mocktail infused with rosemary (as our guests do not consume alcohol) paired with bruschetta appetizer followed by butternut squash soup topped with pumpkin seeds and creme fraiche then entree of Filet mignon & scallops cooked to perfection. The bread pudding desert with butterscotch chips topped with vanilla bean icecream and sprig of mint was heavenly. Michael and Jenna were on time, professional and warm, effecient, and catered to our every need. I look foward to future endeavors with Chef Michael and will not hesitate to refer him to family and friends.

Menu: Girl's Night In The Mountains

We had Chef Jackson come to our cabin in Blue Ridge for a private dinner celebrating my mom’s birthday, and it was such a wonderful experience! He worked with us ahead of time to create the perfect menu, and everything was absolutely delicious and beautifully plated. The entire evening felt so special, and it was so nice to relax, enjoy our time together, and not have to worry about cooking or cleaning up. Chef Jackson was great to work with from start to finish, and I would absolutely recommend him for any special occasion or group dinner!

Menu: Modern Italian Table

Holy cannoli! Chef Cody is THE BEST. This dude is a top tier chef. All 4 of us in the party agreed it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. We all had a favorite dish. Personally, I liked the savory cannoli best, but everything we ate was phenomenal! Chef Cody is also personable and easy to talk to.
