How much does a private chef in Dubai cost?

Private chef experiences on splidu typically range from AED 200 to AED 500 per person, depending on the menu complexity, number of courses, and chef's speciality.

How far in advance should I book a private chef?

We recommend booking 3–5 days ahead for most occasions. For larger gatherings of 10+ guests, booking 1–2 weeks in advance ensures the best chef availability.

Can I customise the menu for dietary requirements?

Absolutely. Every menu on splidu is fully customisable. Communicate your dietary needs, allergies, or flavour preferences directly with your chef.

What does the chef need from my kitchen?

Your chef will bring all ingredients. A standard kitchen with an oven, hob, and basic utensils is usually all that's needed. Your chef will confirm specifics beforehand.

How many guests can a private chef cater for?

Most private chef experiences cater for 2–20 guests. Larger parties are possible with additional support staff — just let us know when booking.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellation policies vary by chef but typically allow free cancellation 48–72 hours before your event. Full details are shown during booking.

"The Carte Blanche was unlike anything I've had. Varun called us, listened to our story, and created a 7-course menu that felt like it was made entirely for us. Pure magic."
