O Chef adaptou a ementa ao momento de forma muito personalizada e criativa. Foi muito atento aos pormenores e momento que descrevi como contexto para o jantar e preparou uma experiência adaptada ao pormenor à estória que lhe contei. Foi óptimo. Nada a dizer de menos bom. Muito satisfeitos! Obrigado!

We booked Chef Adam for my mums 70th Birthday and what an experience from start to finish. The menu worked tremendously well, great flavours in all the dishes and beautifully presented. It was a pleasure when Adam served the meals to here more about each dish and he was happy to share cooking tips with the guests. Overall each course was excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thank you again Adam for making it a lovely day.

Experience formidable. Le diner a été super du début à la fin, le service et la présentation sont très appréciables. Le repas était excellent. le chef a laissé la cuisine très propre. Rien à redire c'était parfait. Je recommande le chef Jerôme.

Fred was completely wonderful and the experience was everything we could have hoped for. Delicious food, attentive service, and an engaging chef. We had one special request that was handled very gracefully. And he left the kitchen spotless!

We had an amazing experience! They took care of everything and the food was fantastic!

We had a great experience with Chef Mateus and his team! He provided a delicious meal that was beautifully presented and had a nice description of the origins of all of the regional dishes that he prepared. He communicated really quickly and was able to make gluten-free substitutions to accommodate one of our group who is celiac. Afterwards the kitchen was spotless! I would happily book him again and would highly recommend him to others!

Giuseppe was an absolute legend! From his quick and friendly communication style, to his reasonable pricing to his absolutely amazing menu, everything was fantastic! He even catered for my dad who is a fussy eater and our little son. If you get a chance to book Giuseppe, do so! You will not be disappointed :)

Absolutely amazing! Couldn’t fault a single thing as he was completely professional and accommodating throughout the entire booking of the event. He left the kitchen absolutely spotless and our clients were thrilled with the food and service. Couldn’t recommend more!

Chef Sakis was amazing. All dishes were very tasty and we all enjoyed the explanations and story behind each one. Would definitely recommend and it was a good way to end our stay in Crete

It was such an incredible experience. Our chef was extremely polite and kind and the food was amazing. We were there on a family holiday and this was a very special moment. Our chef catered the foods to our needs and everyone loved it. I would happily book again.

Sergi de Meià es un excel·lent cuiner i persona. Te molts coneixements del producte local Km0 de qualitat però també de la cuina internacional i dels condiments. Es una aposta segura per qualsevol esdeveniment.

Chef Huckleberry was amazing. The food was delicious. He spent a lot of time beforehand making sure the menu would meet our many dietary requirements. He was very friendly and professional. He cleaned up the kitchen so well, it was like he was never there! I would 100% recommend to anyone who wants a restaurant quality meal at home.

Luis ha sido un chef genial, me facilitó cada elección de produit y sobre todo me ayudó a bien escoger y a hacer de la cena una noche inolvidable. Gracias a él y su mujer

Many thank Lucas! It was such a delicious dinner, all of us enjoyed it so much. Highly appricate the communication in advance to cater the individual preferences. We had a wonderful mediterranean dinner as a birthday party surprise. Food and overall experience 10/10! Thank you!!

Chef Yvette and her two-woman team were incredible. It was such a pleasure to eat their delicious food. Preparation was efficient, and the food was delicious. I would recommend her to anyone who asks.

This was our first experience with hiring a private chef, and Sean did not disappoint. Sean was amazing. He kept in constant communication and answered all of my questions. Loved that Sean paid attention to specialty needs, and accommodated all request. Each course was described and absolutely delicious! I would definitely recommend Sean. Thanks Sean, you prepared a wonderful meal experience.

Chef Robby far surpassed any and all expectations I had for our planned evening. Not only was the food incredible, but the story behind each dish added so much context to the meal. He was incredibly easy to communicate with and worked to create the perfect menu for our dinner. All of our guests enjoyed spending time with him in the kitchen to learn about his preparation, the mix of flavors, and his own journey into cooking. It truly was as if we had invited another friend over to hang out… who also happened to be an amazing chef. All of our guests have commented on what an incredible evening it was. We will without a doubt use Chef Robby again.

Elia is as an amazing chef - she took care of everything, laying the table to clearing up at the end. The food was delicious - the Scottish beef fillet was melt in the mouth and cooked to everyone’s preference. Would highly recommend her - thanks for a wonderful evening!

This experience was 10/10! I booked a chef for a hen party of 20 guests in Crete. Chef Apostolis was very accommodating from the beginning as we had a few dietary requirements and I wanted to tweak the menu slightly. On the day of the meal, they messaged on WhatsApp with their ETA and got about preparing the food and laying the table straight away. The food was absolutely incredible, lots of different flavours, everything was cooked perfectly and presented beautifully. The portions were also very generous and they kindly saved and packed away any leftovers in the fridge. The waiter was very attentive, topping up our drinks without note, it was super. At the end of the meal, the two chefs cleaned everything away, they even mopped the floor - I’m sure the villa was cleaner after they’d left than before! They also recommended some places for us to visit in the local area which was a nice touch. What an amazing experience, I would definitely use take a chef again, it was absolutely seamless. Thank you!

We had an amazing experience! They took care of everything and the food was fantastic!
