We have a lot of kids. Is that okay?
Absolutely. Kids under 12 are $30 each on two proteins, and large groups get a second chef so everyone eats together.
How long does the chef stay?
About ninety minutes of cooking, with setup before and a cleanup of the cooking area after.
Do families usually tip?
Some do, some don't. It's not part of the price, so it's entirely up to you.
What's the payment process?
Fifty dollars goes by Zelle three days before the party and is credited back on the bill. Settle up with cash or Zelle on party day; cards aren't accepted.
Does the dry heat or elevation matter?
Not in a way guests notice. The chef adjusts the flame; you handle the shade and the cold drinks.
What can each person pick?
Two or three from this list: chicken, steak, shrimp, scallops, salmon, vegetable tofu. Swapping in filet mignon costs $5 more; lobster tail, $10 more.
