A Culinary Change: Restaurants vs Private Chefs in Philadelphia

We aren’t saying that restaurants are going away permanently. In fact, we love the restaurant industry and wish that it would return to its glory of the pre-COVID era. They offered us a place to learn unique skills, build amazing relationships and embark on incredible journeys related to food and cuisine. They also offer the public a nice way of breaking bread together and enjoying each other's company.

But, now there's a better option and consumers are discovering this new way of dining. That new option is having a private chef in Philadelphia that offers in-home cooking services. Our chef services have been incredibly well received, and Philadelphia has been one of our largest booking locations since we started this journey a few years ago. 

Philadelphia, a city renowned for its culinary diversity and innovation, is embracing the new trend that's changing the way people dine with family and friends. From private chefs crafting personalized gourmet experiences to personal chefs cooking dinners for daily custom meal preparation, the City of Brotherly Love is witnessing a culinary revolution.

Servis Events: Redefining Private Dining in Philadelphia

Servis Events, nestled near Philadelphia, offers unparalleled private dining experiences, tailor-made for a special occassion or for discerning individuals with a desire for gourmet. Nic and Steve Servis, the masterminds behind this venture, collaborate closely to curate one-of-a-kind  menus each month. Their emphasis? Fresh, locally-sourced ingredients that culminate in dishes that are as unique as they are delicious.

From cozy dinners for two to grand weddings or a birthday dinner, Servis Events is setting new standards for luxury dining with their personal chef in Philadelphia. A growing clientele is choosing our private chefs for their events, echoing a sentiment we've observed: there's an increasing preference for these personalized, intimate culinary experiences over the conventional restaurant outing.

Gone are the days of fighting for reservations, only to be seated in a bustling, often crowded dining space with babies screaming at the table next to you. With Servis Events, culinary enthusiasts and their guests can relish exquisite meals in the comfort of their own homes, enjoying service that often surpasses what many restaurants offer.

The COVID-19 pandemic undeniably left a mark on the restaurant landscape; one that we (and many experts) believe will be permanent. We witnessed, with heavy hearts, the closure of many family-owned  eateries - some of which were our former workplaces. As the world grappled with the new norms of social distancing, a swift return to crowded public spaces wasn't on the cards for many, even as the pandemic's grip began to wane.

Yet, in the midst of this, a silver lining emerged. The confinement rekindled the cherished tradition of family meals. But while the joy of communal dining returned, the enthusiasm for meal planning and cooking didn't quite follow suit, especially for those hosting a dinner party. This gap became Servis Events' canvas, allowing their private chef service to truly flourish and showcase its brilliance.
