A private chef for your family vacation

Everyone at one table, nobody stuck in the kitchen, and food the kids actually eat. We cook family reunions, milestone birthdays and the one big dinner of the week, in the house you rented.

Nanny care during dinner

While we cook and serve, insured nannies from our partner agency can look after the children, so the grown-ups get a proper dinner.

  • One nanny for every four children
  • Every newborn has a nanny of their own, and the other children are looked after by another nanny
  • $40 per nanny, quoted with your event
  • Insured, through a third-party nanny agency we work with

Add nanny care when you build your event, or mention it when we call to confirm.

From families we've cooked for

Chef Jojo was absolutely amazing! I felt like we made a new best friend and her food was phenomenal. She took care of everything from prep, cleaning, and putting away leftovers. We felt like we were at a five star restaurant (definitely recommend the yogurt parfait) while in the comfort of our house.

Family questions

How do you price children?

Children aged 3 to 12 are $35 each, food included. Under-3s eat free. Choose smaller portions of the main menu or a proper kids' menu.

How does nanny care work?

We arrange insured nannies through a third-party agency: one nanny for every four children, and a nanny of their own for each newborn. It's $40 per nanny and is quoted with your event.

Grandma has dietary needs. Can you help?

Yes. Heart-healthy, low-sodium, diabetic-friendly, soft foods and every allergy can go on your event order before we shop. We're chefs, not doctors, so please follow her doctor's guidance and tell us exactly what it is.

Can you set up a celebration?

Yes: birthday and specialty cakes, a decorated table from $250, printed menus and balloons indoors or poolside.
