Dining in Manhattan

Fine dining, plated in your kitchen

Restaurant-level cooking does not need a restaurant. In Manhattan, a private chef plates every course by hand in your kitchen and serves it at your table.

You choose the menu from the proposals you receive. Your chef shops, cooks, serves and cleans up, so all you do is host.
