Job description:

We are seeking a highly skilled and health-focused Private Chef for a private family based in Pelham, just north of New York City.

The family’s primary goal is to follow a cholesterol reducing diet, so the chef must be experienced in creating delicious, balanced meals that are low in fat, sodium, and sugar. Knowledge of plant-based cuisine, low-carb approaches, and the use of sugar replacements is essential.

The chef will prepare mostly lunches and dinners for two guests, working a few days each week. The family prefers international cuisines such as Indian, Korean, Chinese, and broader Asian influences, with less focus on traditional American cuisine. Presentation is very important, and the chef should have the ability to make healthy food visually appealing as well as flavorful.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about nutrition and wellness, and skilled in making healthy food taste exciting and satisfying. Strong organizational skills, a creative approach to menu planning, and a warm, professional personality are all important for this role.
