Milwaukee Personal Chef

Tastefull


Services



Weekly Meal Preparation


     The personal chef service is just that, you get your own personal chef.What it entails is this: the chef will plan your menu with you, designing it to your tastes and dietary needs. Chef Ben will shop for the ingredients in which ever way you prefer, be it your favorite grocers like Sendik's or local co-op or even from the farm down the street. Then he will bring the groceries to your house and cook for you according to the meal plan you and he designed. He will clean up the kitchen and leave you with your meals in the refrigerator and /or freezer with a full set of rewarming and storage instructions.  Tastefull offers a wide range of meal plan options, please see the pricing page for an estimate on some of the meal plans offered.The beauty of personal chef is that it's personal. Chef Ben Zang believes that he is here to help enrich your life so with this in mind he is always open to discussing how to make his service work for you.


Catering


     The main difference between  a catering company and in-home catering provided by Tastefull is in the experience. It starts with menu. Traditional catering has limitations as to what dishes can be served. Those dishes have to be able to be transported, hold up in a warmer or reheated, and typically have to be able to handled by the person. From personal experience with most catering companies in Milwaukee, their range, flavor and service for small to medium size size events have been lacking. 

      Party and event catering experience with Tastefull is radically different. It can be like peeking inside your favorite restaurant kitchen to see how the magic on your plate has been prepared, without having to leave your home. It's simply having virtually any menu served fresh from the stove, so all the crunchy, delicate or temperamental dishes that have to be immediately served (such as steak) are now an option.

      Size of event is also a consideration. Tastefull will prepare food for your special occasion, from only 2 people for a truly intimate and romantic experience, and all the way up to 120 people, depending on your event, location, etc. Is it a family or company BBQ or a birthday party, a family reunion, a graduation party, a bridal or baby shower,  an open house or just a get together with friends, we'll be happy to make it magical, and something your guests will be talking fondly about for a long time. 



Cooking Classes 


    Are you a food enthusiast with a passion for learning? Let us help! Is there a recipe you are afraid to try and would like some professional back up? No problem. Do you just want to sit back and learn some new twist, while chatting with friends? Allow the chef to entertain you. There can also be an earnest desire to fulfill some deep seated yearning for culinary greatness; chef Ben can help with  that too! If the wind blows from the East and you have got to learn how to make the best clam chowder on this side of the Atlantic, he has got the recipe. Whatever your curiosity, a cooking class is a great deal of fun, plus grading the food is the best part. Chef Ben prefers a very hands-on approach to teaching but if you are more in the mood for just a demonstration, he can do that too.



Kids' Cooking Parties


    Kids are amazing! So with this in mind a kids' cooking party is a great birthday party for that kid with the culinary passion. These parties are interactive and educational for the whole family. It is a great idea to develop this life skill early in your child's life, because being a good cook is a lifelong skill that will serve him or her forever.

These picnics are designed to be a treat for the senses. The chef and you will design a picnic basket for you to enjoy with your loved one. This picnic is to help you in sweeping  that special someone off his or her feet, whether  you take your beloved to that favorite spot in the woods or to the bedroom, the basket is there to help in your endeavor.
