Questions from Balaton hosts
How long is the chef there?
About ninety minutes on the grill, plus setup before and a cleanup of the cooking area after.
Our group in Balaton is pretty big.
Large parties get a second chef and grill so supper comes out at about the same time for everyone.
Do you cook in winter?
On a mild day in an open garage, yes. The grill never goes in a closed space, so January is usually out.
Can you come to the cabin?
You bet. Send the fire number or address and tell us about the road; travel is figured from there.
Should we tip?
Up to you. It's not built into the price.
What proteins can we get?
Chicken, steak, shrimp, scallops, salmon or vegetable tofu. Filet mignon costs $5 extra and lobster tail $10 extra.
