Private Chef
One of Marna’s Catering top private chefs will become your
personal chef for a day. After a brief consultation, your chef
will create a menu specifically tailored around your culinary
wishes. Your chef will then provide you with an estimate of
purchases and personal time and, depending on the
requirements of the event, arrange for any necessary service or
bar staff. You will then be able to relax and enjoy the company
of your guests, while all culinary tasks are masterfully handled
by your chef. At the end of the meal we guarantee you’ll
already be planning your gourmet Marna’s chef’s next visit .
