					<p>Bring your partner (or your favourite couple friends) together for a romantic, interactive cooking experience — without leaving home. CHEFIN’s <strong>Online Valentine’s Cooking Class with a Private Chef</strong> lets you cook alongside a professional chef in your own kitchen, creating a special date night that’s personal, fun, and genuinely delicious.</p>
<p><strong>Here’s how it works:</strong><br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f469-200d-1f373.png" alt="👩‍🍳" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Live Online Class</strong> – Hosted via Google Meet (or Zoom if preferred) and recorded so you can rewatch later.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f4e9.png" alt="📩" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Before the Class</strong> – You’ll receive a welcome email introducing your chef and the Valentine’s menu, plus a shopping list, recipe booklet, and simple prep guide.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f9c4.png" alt="🧄" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Prep Made Easy</strong> – Shop for ingredients and do light prep (washing, chopping, measuring) before the class so you can cook smoothly live.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f3a5.png" alt="🎥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Interactive Cooking Experience</strong> – Join the link, follow your chef step-by-step, ask questions, and pick up pro tips, plating ideas, and chef tricks along the way.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f491.png" alt="💑" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Perfect for Couples</strong> – Ideal for one couple or small groups (double dates). For larger groups, we can run sub-groups with additional chefs to keep it personal.</p>
<p>Whether you’re planning a Valentine’s date night, an anniversary, or a surprise “just because,” this online class turns your kitchen into the best table in the house.</p>

<p data-start="46" data-end="336">Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll share the class menu so everyone knows what they’ll be making. The chef will teach two canapes, one entrée and one main, with clear steps that are designed to be achievable at home. Dietary needs can be accommodated where possible — just let us know in advance.</p>
<h3 data-start="338" data-end="387">Can I choose a specific chef for our class?</h3>
<p data-start="388" data-end="646">Yes, where availability allows. After your booking is confirmed, we’ll match you with the most suitable chef based on your preferred cuisine, group type (team or private), and schedule. If you have a chef in mind, tell us and we’ll do our best to arrange it.</p>
<h3 data-start="648" data-end="700">How does booking a Virtual Cooking Class work?</h3>
<p data-start="701" data-end="998">Book online and you’ll receive a confirmation email with next steps.

On the day, you’ll join via Google Meet (or Zoom if preferred) and cook along live.</p>

<h3 data-start="1000" data-end="1043">Do you run classes for my group size?</h3>
<p data-start="1044" data-end="1246">Yes. Virtual Cooking Classes are ideal for less than 12 participants. For larger groups, we can run multiple sub-groups with additional chefs or facilitators to keep the experience interactive and personal.</p>
<h3 data-start="1248" data-end="1297">What do I need to prepare before the class?</h3>
<p data-start="1298" data-end="1593">Each participant will need their own ingredients, plus basic kitchen equipment and a stable internet connection. We recommend completing light prep beforehand — washing, chopping, and measuring — so everyone can cook smoothly during the live session.</p>
<h3 data-start="1595" data-end="1652">What time should we join, and how long does it run?</h3>
<p data-start="1653" data-end="1891">We recommend joining 5–10 minutes early to test audio and video. Most classes run for 60–90 minutes, depending on the menu and group size. The session can also be recorded so you can rewatch or share with anyone who missed it.</p>

	                <p>For families, this online cooking class with chef becomes a shared experience. Choose an early-bird session (around 4:30 PM) where kids help prepare the entrée — handmade pasta, dumplings, or cookies. Kids learn simple culinary skills using tasks that are age appropriate such as safe knife handling and simple baking science. Later, transition into a 7:30 PM adults-only session for the main. Start together, then finish with a candlelit date night while kids enjoy the dessert they helped create. Fun, educational, and genuinely memorable.</p>

					<h3><b>Who is this for? </b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The virtual meeting package is perfect for businesses, universities, and organisations conducting lengthy or all-day virtual meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams. </span></p>
<h3><b>Why get the virtual meeting package? </b></h3>
<ul>
<li><b>Morale boost. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">The virtual meeting package is the perfect morale boost for employees working from home. It can be tough to join an all-day meeting in front of a computer screen. Being treated to a box of delicious snacks will uplift your team and keep them engaged, energised, and enthusiastic. </span></li>
<li><b>Team building. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">It’s hard to maintain a sense of camaraderie and team bonding with all the distance created through working from home. Without being in the same space, employees can start to feel disconnected. Providing virtual meeting snacks to your team is a way to create a shared experience that can encourage bonding through distance. </span></li>
<li><b>Show appreciation. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">A simple gesture like providing catering for virtual meetings goes a long way in times like these. It’s a great way to show your team that they’re valued and thank them for the hard work they’ve been doing from home. </span></li>

<h3>What happens once my booking is confirmed?</h3>
<p>After booking, you’ll receive confirmation along with a brief questionnaire about your event, food preferences, dietary needs and any special requests. From there, our concierge team coordinates the chef, menu and practical details leading up to the day.</p>
<h3>How does CHEFIN choose the right chef for my event?</h3>
<p>We select a carefully screened private chef whose experience suits your location, preferred cuisine, guest requirements and style of occasion. Chef availability is also taken into account, and you’ll be introduced to your chef before the event.</p>
<h3>Can the menu be tailored to my guests?</h3>
<p>Yes. Your menu is developed specifically for your occasion rather than taken from a standard restaurant menu. Your chef will consider your tastes, dietary needs and selected experience, and you can provide feedback before the menu is approved.</p>
                        </div>
					                        <div class="column">
							<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>What facilities will the chef need?</h3>
<p>Your chef will usually require a clean, functional kitchen or suitable preparation space, access to power and running water, and enough fridge space for the ingredients. Crockery, cutlery, glassware and table settings are generally supplied by the host unless your chosen package states otherwise. We’ll confirm the requirements with you beforehand.</p>
<h3>When will the chef arrive at the venue?</h3>
<p>For most events, the chef arrives approximately 90 minutes before the planned dining time. This allows enough time to set up, organise the workspace and complete the final preparation. Arrival times may vary depending on the menu, guest numbers and service format.</p>
<h3>What is included in a CHEFIN private dining experience?</h3>
<p>Your chosen package may cover menu planning, ingredient shopping, food preparation, cooking, plating, service and cleaning of the kitchen area. The inclusions are outlined clearly before you book, so you know what is being handled and can spend the occasion with your guests.</p>

				                <div class="section-content">
					<p>Bring your team or friends together for an interactive culinary experience — no matter where you are in the world! CHEFIN’s Virtual Cooking Classes are a fun, hands-on way to cook alongside a professional chef from the comfort of your own kitchen.</p>
<p>Here’s how it works:<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f469-200d-1f373.png" alt="👩‍🍳" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Live Online Class – The session is hosted via Google Meet (or Zoom if preferred) and is also recorded so you can rewatch later or share with anyone who missed it.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f4e9.png" alt="📩" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Before the Class – Each guest receives a welcome email introducing the chef and dishes, along with a detailed shopping list, recipe booklet, and simple preparation guide.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f9c4.png" alt="🧄" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Prepare Your Ingredients – Before the class, everyone shops for their ingredients and completes the basic prep (washing, chopping, and measuring), so you’re ready to cook along live.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f3a5.png" alt="🎥" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Interactive Experience – On the day, join the live link, follow the chef step-by-step, ask questions, and enjoy expert tips, plating advice, and stories from the kitchen.<br />
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f468-200d-1f469-200d-1f467-200d-1f466.png" alt="👨‍👩‍👧‍👦" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Group Options – Ideal for teams or private groups of 6–12 participants.

<h3 data-start="0" data-end="45">What menu will I cook during the class?</h3>
<p data-start="46" data-end="336">Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll share the class menu so everyone knows what they’ll be making. The chef will teach two canapes, one entrée and one main, with clear steps that are designed to be achievable at home. Dietary needs can be accommodated where possible — just let us know in advance.</p>
<h3 data-start="338" data-end="387">Can I choose a specific chef for our class?</h3>
<p data-start="388" data-end="646">Yes, where availability allows. After your booking is confirmed, we’ll match you with the most suitable chef based on your preferred cuisine, group type (team or private), and schedule. If you have a chef in mind, tell us and we’ll do our best to arrange it.</p>
<h3 data-start="648" data-end="700">How does booking a Virtual Cooking Class work?</h3>
<p data-start="701" data-end="998">Book online and you’ll receive a confirmation email with next steps. Each participant will receive a welcome email introducing the chef and class menu, plus a shopping list, recipe booklet, and prep guide. On the day, you’ll join via Google Meet (or Zoom if preferred) and cook along live.</p>

<h3 data-start="1000" data-end="1043">Do you run classes for my group size?</h3>
<p data-start="1044" data-end="1246">Yes. Virtual Cooking Classes are ideal for less than 12 participants. For larger groups, we can run multiple sub-groups with additional chefs or facilitators to keep the experience interactive and personal.</p>
<h3 data-start="1248" data-end="1297">What do I need to prepare before the class?</h3>
<p data-start="1298" data-end="1593">Each participant will need their own ingredients, plus basic kitchen equipment and a stable internet connection. We recommend completing light prep beforehand — washing, chopping, and measuring — so everyone can cook smoothly during the live session.</p>
<h3 data-start="1595" data-end="1652">What time should we join, and how long does it run?</h3>
<p data-start="1653" data-end="1891">We recommend joining 5–10 minutes early to test audio and video. Most classes run for 60–90 minutes, depending on the menu and group size. The session can also be recorded so you can rewatch or share with anyone who missed it.</p>

We’ll send the menu to you for approval before the event, as well as a link to join the virtual meeting. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Before the virtual cooking class event, you and your guests will receive a welcome email introducing the chef and dishes, along with a detailed shopping list, recipe booklet, and simple preparation guide.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">When it’s time for your class, hop online to join the virtual meeting, meet your chef, and get cooking! Your class will include detailed instruction on cooking techniques, ingredients, and the history of the dishes you’re cooking. You can ask questions at any time throughout the class and get feedback on your progress. Make sure your cameras are working! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">After the virtual cooking class, you and your friends can enjoy your meals and have a shared lunch or dinner online. Your chef can also stay on to answer any questions, share stories, and offer more tips and tricks in the kitchen. At the end of the day, you’ll be glowing with a tummy full of great food and memories of a unique bonding experience with your loved ones!</span></p>

				                <div class="section-content">
					<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Definitely! A cook-off is a more competitive experience and the chef will be kindly judging your meals and providing feedback. You will still be guided through a set of recipes, only this time your chef will set a time for you to go off and prepare the meals yourselves. They will still be there to answer questions and provide guidance as you cook. While the chef won’t be able to taste your meals, they will judge them based on appearance, plating up, etc. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">A virtual cook-off is a fun, fast-paced activity. Don’t take yourself too seriously and just enjoy the ride! This is a great virtual activity for birthdays in quarantine, team-building exercises, or just general fun with friends and family who are far away. </span></p>

					<p><span style="font-weight: 400">A virtual cooking class is just as hands-on and informative as an in-person class. You have the opportunity to be directly guided by a private chef while participating in a fun bonding exercise with friends and family. Here are some benefits to taking an online cooking class: </span></p>
<ol>
<li><b> Learn menu planning. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">Your chef won’t just teach you recipes, but guide you through the entire menu creation process. You’ll then be able to design your own menus that are perfectly balanced with harmony from entree to dessert. </span></li>
<li><b> Learn cooking techniques. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">Cook and prep faster, better, and more efficiently with all the best kitchen secrets from your chef. This will include knife techniques, meal prepping, plating up, and more. </span></li>
<li><b> Learn ingredient combinations. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">The secret sauce to many outstanding meals is unique and intriguing ingredient combinations. Your chef will teach you how to turn an ordinary dish into a stand-out creation through the art of ingredient combination. </span></li>
<li><b>Personal guidance. </b><span style="font-weight: 400">In a virtual cooking class, the chef is dedicating all their attention towards helping you and your guests develop your kitchen skills. Ask any questions you have, voice concerns, and feel free to guide the cooking class as you wish. Everything will be paced per your skill level and customised to you and your tastes.</span></li>

<h3>What happens once my booking is confirmed?</h3>
<p>After booking, you’ll receive confirmation along with a brief questionnaire about your event, food preferences, dietary needs and any special requests. From there, our concierge team coordinates the chef, menu and practical details leading up to the day.</p>
<h3>How does CHEFIN choose the right chef for my event?</h3>
<p>We select a carefully screened private chef whose experience suits your location, preferred cuisine, guest requirements and style of occasion. Chef availability is also taken into account, and you’ll be introduced to your chef before the event.</p>
<h3>Can the menu be tailored to my guests?</h3>
<p>Yes. Your menu is developed specifically for your occasion rather than taken from a standard restaurant menu. Your chef will consider your tastes, dietary needs and selected experience, and you can provide feedback before the menu is approved.</p>
                        </div>
					                        <div class="column">
							<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>What facilities will the chef need?</h3>
<p>Your chef will usually require a clean, functional kitchen or suitable preparation space, access to power and running water, and enough fridge space for the ingredients. Crockery, cutlery, glassware and table settings are generally supplied by the host unless your chosen package states otherwise. We’ll confirm the requirements with you beforehand.</p>
<h3>When will the chef arrive at the venue?</h3>
<p>For most events, the chef arrives approximately 90 minutes before the planned dining time. This allows enough time to set up, organise the workspace and complete the final preparation. Arrival times may vary depending on the menu, guest numbers and service format.</p>
<h3>What is included in a CHEFIN private dining experience?</h3>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400">On the day, you will receive your meal prep package with each dish carefully prepared and packed, ready to finish off. Included are detailed instructions on how to finish preparing each dish and a guide on how to present everything beautifully.

The actual dishes themselves can be any cuisine of your choice, and if you have any ideas or specifications then feel free to let your chef know at the time of purchase.

The mains will be two extravagant chef-made dishes. Finally, there is dessert. </span></p>

				                <div class="section-content">
					<h3>When should I hire staff?</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">If you’re hosting a busy, large event and don’t want to do everything yourself &#8211; then you can hire staff to help you out! Our staff can be hired to wait tables, serve drinks, set up and set down, or give you a hand in the kitchen. Save money and time trying to source staff from recruiters and easily add staff on to your CHEFIN order. </span></p>
<h3><b>Hire event waiters</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">You can’t serve everyone yourself! If you’re hosting a wedding, gala dinner, expo, or any event with a large guest list, hire waiters to help you attend tables. Our waiters have been trained in hospitality skills and can work at all kinds of events including cocktail parties, seated dinners, boardroom lunches, and more.</span></p>
<h3><b>Hire bar staff </b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Our team of bartenders are fully qualified and experienced in handling common bar package beverages (beer, wine, and soft drinks). If you require more expertise with your bar staff, you can also hire sommeliers and mixologists to deliver a premium experience at your event. All of our bar staff hold current RSAs and have an in-depth understanding of alcohol licensing laws. They can be hired for events of all sizes, from small to large. </span></p>
<h3><b>Hire kitchen hands</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Need an extra hand in the kitchen? A kitchen hand can help assist you or a chef in executing basic kitchen tasks, including food preparation, peeling &amp; chopping, assembling platters, storing food, washing dishes, and keeping your kitchen looking spick and span. Our kitchen hands are experienced and can work unsupervised as well as follow directions diligently. </span></p>
<h3><b>What can I expect when I hire staff? </b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Hiring staff can help you execute a more successful event by giving an extra hand where you need it. Staff keep food and drinks flowing smoothly, ensure all guests are well looked after and their requests are met, and keep your venue looking clean. All of our staff come dressed in their own uniforms for a professional, well-groomed appearance, and have excellent communication skills. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Our bar and wait staff are all highly trained and have extensive experience working in a range of hospitality environments, including restaurants, functions, and board meetings. We make sure that all of our staff are well-vetted and have the appropriate qualifications required to perform their role with excellence.</span></p>
<h3><b>Help, I need last minute staff!</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">If you urgently require last minute staff for your event, we can get them to you quickly. Whether one of your staff has called in sick or you need more staff for your event than you initially realised, we can help you fill those positions ASAP! </span></p>
