Who exactly is showing up to my home?

Every chef on our roster is trained, background-checked, and food safety certified. We carry full liability and workers comp insurance and run food board analysis on every event.

What's included in the price?

Everything. Shopping, prep, cooking, plating, service, and cleanup. One number. No surprises. We suggest a 20% gratuity, but that's the only thing not baked in.

What does it cost to hire a private chef in Denver, Colorado?

Private chef dinners start at $150 per person for a custom four-course meal, $1,200 minimum. Catering runs $75 per person for buffet, $100 for family style, $125 to $150 for plated. All-inclusive either way.

Do you travel to mountain towns and resort areas?

We're already there. Chefs stationed across Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and Arizona. No travel fees. Ever.

Can you cook in a rental kitchen you've never seen?

We do it all the time. We come fully prepared. For bigger events we might ask for a quick photo of the kitchen ahead of time, but we show up ready.

How far in advance do I need to book?

Ideally a week. We can move faster for smaller dinners. We also have events booked two years out. Whatever your timeline, let's talk.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?

There's nothing we can't or won't accommodate. Kosher, halal, any allergen, any lifestyle diet. We love a good challenge.

How many people can you serve?

One person to 150 to 200 guests. We try to stay under 120 for most events to keep quality exactly where it needs to be.

Can a private chef do a proposal dinner?

Absolutely. MileHighCook has executed dozens of proposal dinners across Vail, Aspen, Scottsdale, Park City, and Jackson Hole — private, perfectly timed, and completely managed so you can focus entirely on the moment.

Does MileHighCook cater bachelorette and birthday parties?

Yes. Private chef service for birthday parties, bachelorette gatherings, girls' weekends, and celebration dinners is one of our most requested services, especially at vacation rentals and ski chalets across our markets.

Every Occasion

What Are You Celebrating?

💑

Anniversary Dinners

A multi-course dinner designed around your relationship and your palate. Whether it's your first or your fiftieth, the table should feel as significant as the occasion.

💍

Proposal Dinners

Perfectly timed, completely managed, and designed to be unforgettable. We handle every culinary detail so you can focus entirely on the moment. We've executed dozens across Vail, Aspen, Scottsdale, and Park City.

🎂

Birthday Celebrations

From intimate milestone dinners for four to larger celebration gatherings. Built around the guest of honor's tastes — their favorite flavors, favorite dishes, favorite memories.

🥂

Bachelorette & Girls' Weekends

The best bachelorette dinners don't happen in restaurants. A private chef at a Scottsdale estate or a Vail ski chalet, with a menu built for the group, is a completely different experience.

🦃

Holiday Gatherings

Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Eve. Let us handle the most stressful meal of the year so you can actually be present with the people around your table.

👶

Baby Showers & Life Events

Baby showers, graduations, retirements, gender reveals. Any occasion worth gathering around a table is worth having a chef build the menu around.

Why Not a Restaurant

The Difference When It Actually Matters

No One Else in the Room

Your table, your space, your guests. No neighboring tables, no ambient noise, no one rushing you for the next reservation. The entire experience belongs to your group.

The Menu Is About You

Your anniversary dinner is built around you — your favorite ingredients, the dish from your first date, the wine from your honeymoon. A restaurant menu is built for the general public. Yours isn't.

You're a Guest at Your Own Table

No running to the kitchen. No coordinating the meal. No cleanup. The chef handles everything from arrival to departure. You focus on the people across the table.

The Story Is Better

"We had a private chef at our ski chalet in Vail" is a story. "We went to a nice restaurant" is not. The experience itself becomes part of the memory.
