Every number and every sheet your kitchen runs on — recipe costing, menu engineering, prep, rosters, inventory and HACCP — in one fast app. Built by a working chef, for chefs.
Tap any dish for the live recipe, its food cost and margin — then pull a complete cost report and a PDF. Full power on your phone, not a watered-down view.
Bump an ingredient price on your phone mid-service, and the food cost on every recipe, every menu and every cost report recalculates — on the pass, in the office, on any device.
Pull a cost report, share a read-only cost link with the owner, edit and send a menu — full power on mobile, not a watered-down view.
You know the chaos: a dozen Excel files that don't talk to each other, recipes trapped on one office laptop, formulas that break the second a supplier price moves. ProChefDesk replaces all of it — update one ingredient price and every food cost recalculates, print a kitchen card mid-service, plan a 200-cover banquet in twenty minutes, track allergens, scale portions and keep HACCP logs, all in one place.
Start free. Upgrade when it pays for itself. Your data is always yours — export anytime. Just a toolkit that respects how chefs actually work.
The actual tools you'll use on the line — each one built to kill a job you currently do on paper or in a spreadsheet.
Sections, prices, allergens and live margin — then print or share a public link in two taps.
Plan the week with leave codes and departments — labour cost totals add up as you type.
Temperature, cooling, receiving and holding logs on your phone — print the monthly binder in one tap.
Scale to any cover count, allergens highlighted, A4-printable — readable across a hot, busy pass.
Covers booked, dietary counts, the 86 list and tonight's specials — a colour-coded board the whole brigade reads at a glance. Build it from blocks, print A3 for the pass.
Theoretical usage from what you sold against what you actually used — the dollar variance per ingredient, so silent losses stop hiding in the spread.
Auto-estimated from each recipe's ingredients — calories, protein, carbs and fat. A fast guide for specials boards and guest questions, from public USDA & FSANZ data.
Log spoilage, trim and overproduction with its real cost attached — a running total that turns waste from a feeling into a number you can act on.
Build the menu, set the head count, and watch food cost, revenue and profit land in real time — then pull a shopping list and deduct stock in a tap.
Banquets, weddings and caterings in one list — guest count, venue, food cost, revenue and profit on every card.
Per-guest food cost, profit against the customer's budget and the full dish list — quote the function with the numbers in front of you.
Covers, ticket price and live food-cost % on every buffet — green when it's healthy, amber when it needs a second look.
Per-guest amounts, realistic pickup rates and expected waste by station — so you cook enough for the room, not double.
Tap any recipe for the full spec: the plated photo, live food cost and margin, scaled ingredients and method. No office laptop, no laminated printout.
Easy on the eyes at 11pm, crisp on every screen. The same tools and the same numbers — dressed for the pass after dark.
I'm Ahmet — a head chef in Perth with fifteen years on the line, from fine-dining restaurants in Istanbul to hotels and resorts across the Gulf, including Marriott multi-property banquets during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. For years I ran my kitchen the way most of us do: a mess of disconnected Excel files, recipes and food costs stranded offline on a single computer, formulas I rebuilt by hand every time a supplier price moved — and I was the only one who could make sense of any of it. So I built ProChefDesk for my own kitchen: one place where recipes, costs, menus, prep and HACCP live together and stay in sync on every device — plus kitchen cards I can print so the whole team works from the same page mid-service. No more spreadsheets fighting each other, no more being chained to one laptop. It's the tool I now use every single day on a real line — and I'm putting it in the hands of chefs who'd rather spend their time cooking than wrestling formulas.

Three things ProChefDesk does that a notebook and a spreadsheet can't.
Live food cost % on every recipe and menu. Update one ingredient price and every dish recalculates — so you spot the plates losing money before service, not after the quarter.
Audit-ready records — daily temperature logs, cook & cool, receiving and hot/cold holding. Log in real time on your phone, print the monthly binder in one tap.
Send your boss or accountant a private, read-only link showing price and food cost % — no login, no app, works on any phone. Numbers stay where they belong: with the people who need them.
