Though your Chefs may be specialized in a cuisine or two, most of our chefs are “all-rounders” and able to “respectfully” make a variety of cuisines from across the continents. We at InstaChef are constantly training them on various cuisines and encourage them to learn by immersion from their fellow colleagues (Chefs!).
The menus under Cuisines are brief and are there just to give you an idea of the variety of dishes our chefs can make at your home. They are by no means an exhaustive list!
You can always ask your Chef for anything particular that you would like to get cooked and he would be more than happy to make it for you.
Yes, we do.
We operate 7 days a week, any hour you prefer between 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

Yes we do. In fact, most of our clients have chosen for the Chefs to go their homes while they are still at work and prefer food to be ready for them when they reach home. Please let us know where to get and return your apartment keys. You may also leave instructions inside your apartment or email it to us.

There are many dubious, unaccountable and unhygienic “illegals” and “part-time cooks” that are currently operating illegally in the UAE (putting you and your family’s well-being and health at RISK!) Also be aware that these (illegal) Cooks mostly do not have a visa or trading their wares without a relevant visa thereby putting you at RISK with the UAE authorities as well.
On the other hand, all our Chefs are legally employed on a full-time basis in our company. They are trained and groomed by us on aspects of cuisine, hygiene and etiquette.
Our Chefs cannot get a visa without passing a medical exam at a government facility. So, please be assured that all our chefs have successfully passed that stringent medical exam.
Yes with certain conditions. Please contact us.
