Marketplace for private chefs
We built a platform where people can book private chefs for social occasions at home with a few clicks. Customers get a 3-course meal for around $40 per person, and chefs can earn significantly more than in restaurant kitchens by reaching new customers directly through us.
We live and operate in London, England, and after YC the company would remain based here.
London has a large and diverse food scene as well as a sizeable customer base interested in private dining experiences. It's also where we have our chef network and the initial traction, so it makes sense to keep the company here.
