# Which countries and cities is ChefMaison available in?

ChefMaison chefs are active across **30+ countries** — we're present wherever we have chefs and requests, so our coverage keeps growing every week. Our strongest markets today include **France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands**, each with dozens to hundreds of chefs already active, alongside a fast-growing presence across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium, South Africa, Germany, and Greece.

ChefMaison works differently from a fixed directory. Even if your exact city isn't one of our best-known hubs yet, it's always worth requesting a quote:
* Many chefs are happy to travel beyond their home city or region for the right occasion.
* New chefs join every week, so availability in your area may already be better than it looks.
* Requesting a quote costs nothing and puts your event in front of chefs who can see it and respond directly.
## How to check availability for your location
The most reliable way to know if a chef is available near you is simply to search your city or submit a request — this gives our chefs (and our matching system) the chance to respond directly, rather than relying on a static list that can't keep up with how fast we're expanding.
> 💡 If you're ever unsure, just request a quote. It's free, it's fast, and it's the best way to find out what's actually possible in your area right now.
