My cooking
“Flavour is all in the details: a spice, a fresh herb, the right seasoning… can transform a whole dish!”
Seasonal, varied, unpretentious and full of flavour, with a soft spot for homemade. From refined to good old French comfort food, light or more indulgent: what matters is that it’s a pleasure to eat.

what they say
Tried and tasted
“I highly recommend Cheffe Megh: from starter to dessert, delicious dishes where it’s a joy to discover a new ingredient or a new combination every time!”
“An absolute treat! Special mention for the cherry tomato flan and the lemon tart. In short, it’s seriously indulgent and I recommend it.”
“We enjoyed all the dishes, which were very good. Because they keep well, we were able to spread them out.”

questions I’m often asked
Your questions, answered
How much does a private chef cost in Lyon?
My one-off packages range from €140 for 3 dishes to €200 for 5 dishes, with 4 portions per dish: that’s €70 to €100 after the tax credit. Subscriptions are quoted individually, with lower rates the longer you commit.
Do I really get 50% back as a tax credit?
Yes, on weekly meals, if you pay tax in France: I’m a registered home services provider (no. SAP941205908). With the URSSAF immediate advance scheme, you only pay half, straight away. Event catering doesn’t qualify.
What happens during a session?
I come to your home and cook the dishes you’ve chosen in your kitchen. I pack them into labelled, dated boxes in your fridge, with a guide to storing and reheating them, then I wash up and clean the kitchen before I leave.
Who does the shopping?
With the shopping option (+€20 per session after tax credit), I arrive with the ingredients and you reimburse them against the receipt. Otherwise, I send you the shopping list beforehand.
How many portions do I get per dish?
Each package includes 4 portions per dish. Extra portions are €5 each after tax credit.
Which areas do you cover?
Lyon itself, neighbouring towns such as Villeurbanne, Caluire-et-Cuire, Bron and Vénissieux (+€10 per visit after tax credit), and the outer suburbs as far as Limonest, Montluel and Mions (+€20 per visit after tax credit).
When do I need to choose my dishes?
At least 5 days before the session, from over 120 recipes on my menu. The meal planner helps you build your week or month, see the price and send me your selection.
Do I need to be at home?
For the first session, yes: it’s a chance for us to meet and for me to get to know your kitchen.
Do you cook vegetarian dishes?
Yes, part of my menu is meat- and fish-free (though not vegan), and some dishes come in several versions. I adapt my recipes to your tastes and dietary needs: just let me know when you send your selection.
What about a birthday or a drinks party?
I prepare drinks and nibbles, sweet or savoury buffets, birthday teas and family meals in your kitchen, for 2 to 30 people, on a quote basis.
