What is a Freelance Chef?

While many chefs cook for one restaurant, freelance chefs are culinary free agents. They work on a contract basis and have very flexible schedules. Freelance chefs typically have a number of clients that they cook for on a rotating schedule. The advantage of being an independent chef is the scheduling autonomy and the variety of environments in which to cook. These chefs could work at high-profile events, award ceremonies, or even private yachts.

The duties of a freelance chef vary from client to client. Some clients are restaurants that need a menu designer or some extra help catering a large event. Others hire independent chefs to cook for their families at home and pay them to buy groceries. Some freelance chefs can find themselves remodeling kitchens and cleaning cooking equipment.
