Your Private Chef enjoys its first few weeks in our new office in Elsternwick!
An (almost) new year called for a new office for the Your Private Chef team! We are excited to share that we have moved from a home office to a wonderful new space in Glenhuntly Road, Elsternwick.

Why the new office?
We have always had our commercial kitchen in High Street Prahran, but we started Your Private Chef’s office and warehouse the way many other great companies begin: in the garage! After bursting at the seams in props and staff, we made the much-needed decision to move to a dedicated office and warehouse space.

This is a big move for us and our staff, and a big change to be away from the family home! No more dogs and babies disrupting our phone calls (although we secretly do miss that!)
What’s happening in the new office?
Essentially, all the “non-cooking” tasks get done in the new office.

How Your Private Chef Helps You with Office Catering
If you’re planning Office Catering in Melbourne and want it handled properly, we make it straightforward. You tell us about your event — guest count, date, location, dietary needs — and we design a custom menu around your guests. Our chefs cook everything in our Caulfield commercial kitchen and we deliver it beautifully presented in eco-friendly platters, ready to serve.
You don’t need to source ingredients, hire a chef, or worry about cleanup. You take the lid off, use your own tongs, and serve. For larger events (typically 80+), we can also arrange chafing dishes, grazing styling, and service staff — quoted separately based on your event.
We’ve spent fourteen years catering Melbourne events — corporate functions, weddings, milestone celebrations, family dinners, and everything in between. Over two thousand events served, four hundred verified customer reviews, full public liability and food safety compliance. The food is the same restaurant-grade craft every time, because our chefs stay in the kitchen rather than getting shipped to events one at a time.
