About Cheffe Helene
As Cheffe Helene, I am your personal vegan chef. Cheffe Helene is a one-woman business — and in real life, my name is indeed Helen.
​
Personal chef simply means: I come to your home and cook for you. I bring the restaurant experience to you, offering everything from simple, everyday meals to elaborate multi-course menus — 100% vegan and as organic and locally sourced as possible.
​
I prepare delicious vegan dishes that are not only full of flavour, but also satisfying and nourishing. Whether you'd like to be cooked for on a single occasion or have your meals prepared for the next few days — I'm here for you, bringing fresh, creative and balanced vegan cooking straight to your home.
​
I gained my experience over 17 years at the Beizenkollektiv Hirscheneck in Basel — complemented by cooking for large groups at surf camps and mid-sized groups at the Atlantic Surf Lodge in Vieux-Boucau.

I speak German, French, and English.
How does it work when I book an offer?
Option: Enjoy!
You have booked and chosen a vegan meal or multi-course menu. I will arrive with the groceries I've bought, approximately 2-3 hours before your desired meal time. Upon my arrival, please show me the clean and tidy kitchen and everything I need to cook for you. Then you can settle the remaining balance of your booking. You can then leave me alone until about 15 minutes before the meal begins. I will cook. You set the table. If you wish, I can plate the first course. You will plate the remaining courses yourself—if multiple courses have been agreed upon. That's why I need to be there 15 minutes before the meal starts. I will show and explain everything to you and leave you a note in case anything is unclear later. I will leave you with a clean kitchen—except for the pots and pans that are currently being used. Washing the dishes after the meal is your responsibility. PS: The "I don't feel like it" option differs in the process only in that you've already done the shopping. I'll come to you and cook with what you have.
Option: Efficient
You chose the Efficient option, which means Ill be preparing three vegan meals for the days ahead. We'll arrange a time for me to come and prepare everything. All three meals will be refrigerated in containers for later use. You'll provide the containers. Please note: you'll need plenty of space in your refrigerator! I'll arrive at the agreed-upon time, and you'll show me your clean and tidy kitchen, the storage containers, and anything else that might be needed. You'll pay the remaining balance, and then you can leave me to cook. You'll receive a document describing the three meals and what you need to do to prepare them. I'll leave your kitchen clean and tidy.
Option: Join in!
You've booked a cooking class. We'll meet at your place at the agreed time, and I'll bring the groceries. You'll show me your clean and tidy kitchen and pay the remaining balance. Together, we'll prepare the chosen vegan menu/meal. At the end, I'll explain the final steps so you can serve your meal. I'll clean up the kitchen. You set the table. If you'd like, we can plate the first course together. Then I'll leave, and you're the boss for the evening. P.S. Up to 3 people can participate in the cooking class, cooking for themselves or a group of up to 8 people.
... a personal chef?
As a personal chef I come to your place to prepare you a meal. I cook exclusively vegan dishes. My services are primarily designed to meet your everyday needs. When you don't have the time, energy, or inclination to cook, I'll come to your home. I will prepare a delicious lunch or dinner for you, saving you the effort of planning, shopping, and preparing. Whether the food stays in pots or is served in bowls is entirely up to you. If you wish, I can also plate a first course, but I won't stay to plate all the courses. Setting the table and washing the dishes afterward is your responsibility. I'll leave you with a tidy, clean kitchen and depart before the meal or once the first course is on the table. I'm not the chef in a stiff white jacket, creating elaborate decorations on your plates... unless, of course, you specifically request that (the decorations, not the white jacket). I'm the cook who will prepare something delicious and satisfying for you, and perhaps even surprise you with new ideas and dishes. Do you have specific requests, occasions, or interests, but don't see what you're looking for in my menu? Then let's talk and see what's possible.
Requirements..
Your kitchen needs to be equipped for cooking. An oven would be great, but it's not essential. Pots, pans, a cutting board, cutlery, and cooking utensils should be provided. I need a sink and a work surface. Your kitchen must be clean and tidy. I'd also appreciate it if you had a basic supply of groceries like oil, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper (otherwise, I can provide these for an extra charge).
How much does it cost?
The price depends on the chosen option and the number of people (dining). The "from" price shown for the offers is determined by your menu (for example, a pasta menu is cheaper than an asparagus menu). At the time of booking, you make a deposit (via SumUp link or Wero). You pay the remaining balance in cash or by card at the beginning of the actual cooking session at your home.
