Our private chefs can discuss steps to reduce allergen cross contact, such as checking ingredients, cleaning preparation surfaces, and using separate utensils or cookware when appropriate.

You can request a menu that excludes specific allergens, such as dairy, peanuts, wheat, or shellfish. Your chef can explain which ingredients and substitutions may work.
