Private chef for hire in Yorkshire, Lancashire and the Lakes
The Cook in the North ‣ Chef's Diary ‣
Two years ago I threw some wildflower seeds around the garden to encourage pollinators. This is the beautiful display of oxeye daisies at the moment, and we’re rewarded with strawberry, redcurrant, apple, pear, tomato and pea plants all in fruit thanks to our six-legged friends. All of the veg peelings and plant-based packaging from cooking trips comes home with me to our compost bins, helping to nourish the soil, grow new foods and keep biodegradable waste away from landfill.
Enjoy a freshly cooked meal in the comfort of your own home or holiday cottage:
I do the shopping, bring all of the ingredients and my own equipment, cook, serve and clear up!
I charge a set amount to travel to you plus a price per person for the meal. For an estimate, you can get an instant quote
The cost is fully inclusive - it includes the shopping, prep, travel, cooking, service and cleaning up, leaving the kitchen spotless.
A £100 deposit books and secures the date. Half of the remainder is due a fortnight before the meal, with the balance payable on the night, either when I arrive or after the meal.
