90 Gift Ideas for Chefs

From Affordable Chef-Approved Knife Sets to Connected Air Fryer Ovens

— December 13, 2019 — Lifestyle
This list of gift ideas for chefs caters perfectly to those who enjoy spending time in the kitchen creating new and delicious dishes. One of the standout options to give this holiday season is by TheChefClub -- its new set of premium kitchen knives would make a great addition to any household.

The knives are made from Matric powder steel and high-quality stainless steel held together with SLS, which is a selective laser sintering. It is then polished and coated in another layer -- this time, titanium in order to give the knives a sleek minimal aesthetic. Another great gift option for chefs this season is the extravagant LG InstaView ThinQ capsule of kitchen appliances. It is an air fryer oven that integrates artificial intelligent technology.
