In-home dining in Keystone
Looking for a private chef in Keystone, CO? The Mobile Chef cooks four-course dinners on site in the rental home or condo where you are staying, so your group can come off the mountain and sit down to a meal without driving anywhere. We have cooked for visitors across Summit County since 1998, from our base in Frisco, and we specialize in smaller groups: families on a ski week, friends sharing a house, and small celebrations.
Private chef service in Keystone, Colorado
Keystone is a ski area and mountain town, and most visitors stay in rental homes and condos. After a day on the slopes, the last thing most groups want is to get everyone dressed, find a table big enough and drive back in the snow. Visitors to the Keystone area can enjoy more freedom and still enjoy terrific meals with personal, private chef service, cooked on site at your property.
Here is how it works. You call or email with your dates, your headcount and any dietary needs. We work out a menu with you. On the day, we arrive with the ingredients, cook in your kitchen, serve each course at the table and leave the kitchen clean. You pour your own wine, the kids can come and go from the table, and nobody has to drive.
Why groups in Keystone choose to dine in
Getting a group moving in the same direction is hard at the best of times, and harder after a full day of skiing. Dining in removes the logistics. There is no table to reserve, no one has to stay sober to drive, and the evening runs at your pace rather than a restaurant’s. Dining in also lets you pour your own wine or cocktails, at considerable savings. For families, it means the kids can eat, get up and play while the adults stay at the table as long as they like.
An in home chef in Keystone, CO: what to expect
Every menu includes four courses: a starter, soup or salad, an entrée and dessert. You choose from the dishes on our menus, which include contemporary, Mediterranean, family and Thai options. An evening might start with steamed dumplings with satay sauce, then a Greek salad with feta and olives, then arugula stuffed chicken breast with rice pilaf with almonds, and finish with tiramisu.
A condo kitchen is usually all we need. We cook with what is there and bring what is not. If you have questions about counter space, timing or what the evening looks like from start to finish, the guide on what to expect when a private chef cooks in your rental walks through it step by step.
We cook gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan dishes and work around food allergies. Tell us about everyone at the table when you book, and the menu is planned around them from the start.
Keystone catering for small groups
Not every occasion is a sit-down dinner. For a birthday, an anniversary or a get-together after a day of skiing, Keystone catering can mean a spread of platters rather than plated courses: a brie cheese and fruit platter, hummus with vegetable crudité, or a shrimp cocktail platter laid out for people to help themselves. Our guide to après-ski platters for your rental has ideas that work just as well in a Keystone condo.
Because we focus on smaller groups, the service stays personal. To see the full range of what we do, from dine-in dinners to platters, start with our private chef services.
