Can you help a family with diverse dietary needs?
There are several ways to satisfy a family with diverse dietary needs. The menu
can be created where separate meals can be prepared solely for those with
strict dietary restrictions and the remaining meals can be prepared to the
palate of the rest of the family.
Where do you shop?
We will shop for groceries at the store you select. If you do not have a
preference, then we will shop at one of the local markets and specialty
stores. When groceries are not included in the professional chef service, it
gives you more flexibility and control of the type (organic, free range) and
quality of the products being used.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are insured for $1 million in general liability and an
additional $1 million under an umbrella policy.
How do you transport my groceries and meals?
|
Your groceries and
meals are transported in a commercial van under refrigeration. This van is
solely used for this purpose. Personal vehicles will never be used to transport
your food
|
|
|
because we could not ensure proper food handling practices especially
during the scorching Arizona summer.

Why don’t you cook in my home?
My commercial kitchen is equipped with commercial appliances that heat faster
and cool quicker which produce a better and safer meal. With us
delivering, you can maintain your privacy and not be held captive in your own
home while we cook. Our goal is to make your life easier and less
stressful.
When do you deliver?
My clients are able to select a one-hour window they would like their meals
delivered but traffic will some times dictate the delivery time.
Do I have to be home when you deliver?
No, you do not need to be home but we will need access to a refrigerator.
Some clients give us a key or the garage door opener to their homes. This
will require the inner garage door to be unlocked or a refrigerator in the
garage.
Can you deliver to my office?
Yes, but special
arrangements will have to be made to ensure freshness and proper food handling
practices are met.
Are you a caterer?
The Culinary Craftsman Personal Chef is a personal chef. We cook for one
family and one entree at a time. There will never be an assembly line of food
in the Culinary Craftsman kitchen.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
No, you do not sign a contract with the Culinary Craftsman. We are a
service business looking for clients that want to form a long-term
relationship. When you have a long-term relationship with a personal
chef, we will better understand your tastes and needs and will exceed your
culinary expectations.
What is ServSafe? Why is it important?
ServSafe is a food safety training program that is recognized by more federal,
state and local health jurisdictions than any other program in the United
States. The ServSafe program provides the resources to help keep food safety as
an essential ingredient in every meal. ServSafe training is the one commitment
to food safety implementation that we should all share every day.
