Why myCHEF
A managed company — not a freelance hub
Freelance chef platforms connect you to an independent cook, then step away. myCHEF is different: we own the whole experience — chef, sous chef, service staff, ingredients, equipment, and quality control — so the result is consistent whether it's your first booking or your twentieth.
- Every chef is background-checked, HACCP certified, and trained in-house
- Fixed, transparent pricing — no hidden grocery markups
- One WhatsApp number for everything: menu, booking, and day-of coordination
- Full accountability — if anything is wrong, we fix it
- Insurance-covered for villa events and large catering

Local knowledge
Why myCHEF in Ubud
Our chefs know Ubud — its villa layouts, the villas that have great kitchens, and the local suppliers that make the food genuinely fresh. That knowledge comes from cooking here hundreds of times, not from a listing on a marketplace.
Ubud has 300+ boutique villas scattered across rice terraces and jungle ravines. Most are intimate 2–4 bedroom properties with outdoor kitchens or pavilions — perfect for private dining.
Wellness travellers doing a yoga retreat or meditation programme, cultural tourists wanting to eat authentically Balinese, and creatives on longer stays who want consistent plant-based or whole-food cooking.
