National Personal Chef Day

National Personal Chef Day honors both women and men working as personal chefs. One of the reasons for this holiday is the confusion between professions. Many people confuse a personal chef, who works with different clients, and a private chef, who works in the home of one client. Every year on July 16, we honor our personal chefs. They work directly in a client’s house or restaurant, or the dishes are delivered to the client’s home.

History

National Personal Chef Day was proposed by the Association of Personal Chefs. In America, the demand for these culinary specialists is growing every year. The number of personal chefs who are members of the Association is increasing annually. Membership in this organization helps chefs develop, organize their business, undergo training, and take part in conferences.
