Planner's guide
ERIKA TROCCA PERSONAL CHEF - Event Planner Insights
Best For: Intimate dinner parties and private celebrations, corporate executive lunches, upscale residential gatherings, customized multi-course dining events
What planners usually like:
- Personalized menu development that works directly with the client's preferences and dietary requirements, reducing back-and-forth communication
- Professional service standards combined with flexibility for smaller, more intimate events where larger catering companies may have minimum requirements
- Direct access to the chef for menu consultation and modifications, which typically results in better alignment with event vision
Things to clarify before booking:
- Confirm minimum guest count requirements and whether they accommodate smaller intimate gatherings (under 15 people)
- Discuss whether the service includes setup, plating presentation, and cleanup, or if these are separate line items
- Verify availability for your specific date, as personal chef services often manage limited event capacity simultaneously
- Ask about ingredient sourcing preferences, specialty dietary accommodations (gluten-free, vegan, allergies), and advance notice required for custom menus
Common questions
Does Erika Trocca work with events outside of Barra da Tijuca, and is there a travel fee for locations across Rio de Janeiro?
Yes, the service covers events throughout Rio de Janeiro. However, you'll want to contact them directly at +55 21 96958-0234 to confirm travel logistics and whether travel costs are included in the final quote for your specific location.
How far in advance should I book for a personalized menu consultation and event catering?
Personal chef services typically require 2-4 weeks advance notice for menu planning and custom preparations. Contact them during business hours (Monday-Saturday, 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM) to discuss your timeline and confirm availability for your desired date.
Are they equipped to handle dietary restrictions and specialized menus (vegan, gluten-free, allergies, cultural cuisines)?
As a personal chef service, customization is their core offering, so they likely accommodate dietary needs and specialty requests. Clarify specific restrictions early in the consultation to ensure they can source ingredients and develop appropriate menu options.
What's included in their catering service—just food preparation, or also service staff, setup, and cleanup?
This varies by package and event type. You'll need to discuss whether the quote covers food only, food plus service, table setup, plating presentation, and cleanup to understand the complete scope and actual total cost.
How is pricing structured—per person, flat rate, or based on menu complexity?
Since pricing requires direct contact, expect to discuss guest count, menu selections, service level, and event logistics during your consultation. Request a detailed breakdown so you understand what's included at each price point.
Can they accommodate last-minute bookings or rush orders for events within 1-2 weeks?
Personal chef services often have limited availability for short notice. Call directly to inquire about flexibility, though expect premium rates or potential unavailability for rush bookings during peak seasons.
