Look for Y Hangry on AmazonFull story →Y Hangry pitched a private chef booking platform in series 18, with founders Siddhi Mittal and Heinin Zhang after one hundred thousand pounds for ten percent of the business, a deal that went to Peter Jones and Tej Lalvani together.
Older accounts describe the platform announcing a new partnership this year.
A Two-Sided Marketplace Problem
The platform pairs diners with private chefs for everything from a casual weeknight meal to a genuinely high-end dinner, and marketplaces that connect two different groups tend to succeed or fail based on how fast they can build up the harder side of that equation, in this case the chefs rather than the customers.
Having a large, varied bench of chefs willing to take bookings through the platform was reportedly the real make-or-break factor, since demand from diners tends to be the easier half of that equation to generate.
Still Signing New Partners
Notes on file describe the platform, now branded Yhangry, running live booking pages on both sides of the Atlantic, with a partnership announced this year alongside Luxury Cottages to widen private chef hire further across Britain.
Signing a fresh commercial partner years after a television debut is a meaningful sign a marketplace is still active.
