Your Private Chef
Prepared meals · Fresh · Ranked #32 of 32
A Melbourne catering business that runs a weekly fresh and frozen home meal service on the side, best suited to households who want chef-cooked food and event catering from the same supplier. Anyone tracking calories or macros, or wanting transparent per-meal pricing, will be better served elsewhere.
Best for: Melbourne households wanting chef-cooked weekly meals alongside event catering
No per-meal or box pricing published for the weekly home meal delivery range; prices sit inside a separate catering ordering cart and are quoted per item or per event

Scored on published data only: customer ratings from independent review sites, whether macros and a real ongoing price are disclosed, price against similar services, menu size, ordering flexibility and delivery reach. We could only score 75% of the criteria for this provider, so the remainder are excluded rather than counted as zero. Paid placement never changes this score.
What works well
- Fresh and frozen weekly home meals come from a working Melbourne catering kitchen, with the same chefs behind corporate events
- Dietary labelling across the menu for gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, vegan, halal and kosher friendly options, plus a special dietary individual box for complex allergies
- Repeat orders can be set up at checkout, and pickup from the Caulfield kitchen is available
- Low weekday minimum of $40 plus delivery, so you are not locked into a large weekly box
What to watch
- No published per-meal pricing, so you have to work through the ordering cart or request a quote
- No calorie or macro information published, which rules it out for calorie counting or macro tracking
- Weekly meals are delivered on Tuesdays only, with orders closing the Friday before
- Delivery is limited to Melbourne metro and selected suburbs, with higher minimums on weekends
