Private Chef Placement for Texas's UHNW Families

From the established fortunes of Houston to the dynamic tech hubs of Austin, Montclair Chef provides an unparalleled culinary service for the most discerning families in Texas.

We offer full-time private chef placement for Dallas estates, seasonal chefs for Hill Country ranches, and temporary chefs for high-profile events.

Our deep understanding of the state's unique UHNW landscape allows us to source the perfect culinary professional for a residence in River Oaks, a modern compound in West Lake Hills, or a traditional family home in Highland Park.

Proven Success in the Lone Star State

Case Study: A prominent Dallas family in Preston Hollow required a highly discreet chef with expertise in both Southern entertaining and complex dietary restrictions.

  • The Challenge: A time-poor tech entrepreneur based in West Lake Hills, Austin, required a single culinary professional with extreme versatility. The role demanded a chef who could execute high-stakes investor dinners, prepare healthy, kid-friendly meals for the family, manage specific dietary needs, and travel at a moment's notice between their Austin estate and a vacation home in Aspen.
  • Our Solution: We looked beyond traditional restaurant chefs and focused on candidates with proven experience in dynamic, multi-faceted roles. We placed a highly adaptable chef who not only possessed a Michelin-starred background but also had experience working with families with young children.
  • The Result: The chef seamlessly integrated into the family's demanding schedule, flawlessly executing high-end business dinners that impressed clients and creating low-key family meals that the children loved. The principal gained back valuable time and peace of mind, knowing their culinary needs were handled with absolute precision, whether in their West Lake Hills home or on the road.
The center of Austin is home to our UHNW clients in Texas, using our private chef services.
