We are professional Chefs with the maturity, talent, experience and discretion to handle your short-term needs with panache whatever they might be. TemporaryChef is ready to be of service when your need is immediate.

Anywhere in the world.

Any time.

If you employ a private Chef who becomes indisposed – we are packed and prepared to travel.

A restaurant needing time to find a replacement Chef, or corporate provider with a client to satisfy? We can help.

We have backgrounds in all aspects of food service from large hotels, to boutique restaurants, corporate cafeterias, catering operations, resorts, private yachts and more.

Above all we are discrete and confidant with no ego issues to rock the boat during a transitional period. In short – we are pros. We have pride in providing you with exceptional service. Consistently.

Culinary Outsourcing

It can be a huge problem when a temperamental chef decides to take his/her ego and flounce through the door on a busy night. It is the height of unprofessional behavior , but it happens.

A tight situation can lead to a hurried replacement decision. Don’t rush into a rash appointment, call TemporaryChef and an experienced, mature and talented Chef is available to keep the kitchen on an even keel during the interview process affording you the time to find the perfect fit in a key management position.

A short term special event is another reason to use the services of a temporary Chef rather than leaving a gap in another part of your operation over the course of a couple of weeks.

Vacationing for two weeks in an idyllic retreat ? We’re ready to take the cooking chores to any level you desire. We are career professionals. It’s what we do. For us food is a consuming passion. Vegan ? Ethnic cuisine ? Hand-crafted hors d’oeuvres ? Fancy or down home, we can do it.

TemporaryChef.com is prepared to step into the breach with Chefs of extra-ordinary talent and dedication for corporate outsourcing or private situations requiring discrete personnel. We have handled on & off premises catering, banquets for 1000 people, worked in large hotel kitchens and event venues as well as small boutique restaurants and private yachts.

We are mentors, certified HACCP & ServSafe® instructors, with the experience and confidence to calmly and effectively administer culinary projects of any size – anywhere.

Our specialization is linking very talented Chefs with corporate and private temporary opportunities worldwide. We are, as a group, adherents of local foods, culinary ethics, sustainability, and organics and espouse a mentoring style of management to encourage those we work with to be actively involved in the husbandry of our planet.

We are currently seeking Chefs that are available for occasional gigs and would like to hear from you.

An Evolution

Paul Green — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 11:32:41 +0000

My vision when I conceived the idea for temporarychef.com was as a link for senior Chefs to find opportunities needing their considerable talents and experience on an occasional basis. I’m not trying to be an agency. Rather, I see a consortium of Chefs with passion and knowledge finding further possibilities for the practice of their craft.

Shortly after launching the site, a friend who is a Personal Chef mentioned that there were seasonal downtimes for his business and he would be available. I hadn’t considered that aspect but I agree that it’s a good fit.

There may be other applications or areas of interest. I welcome comments, suggestions, thoughts, and ideas concerning the possibilities here. We are promoters of planetary awareness through philosophical, practical, and community sharing. Be a part of the evolution.
