Chef Stipe Vujević

We had the immense pleasure of having Chef Stipe cook for our group of 7 adults and 5 kids on Friday evening, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment he arrived, Chef Stipe brought not just his culinary expertise but also a warm and friendly demeanor that made everyone feel at ease. His passion for cooking was evident as he effortlessly prepared a delicious meal that delighted our taste buds. The menu was perfectly crafted, balancing flavors that appealed to both adults and children. Each dish was beautifully presented and tasted even better than it looked! Everyone was raving about the risotto, tiramisu, and the various types of meat prepared on the grill. What impressed us the most was Chef Stipe's attention to detail and ability to cater to various dietary preferences within our group. He took the time to ensure that everyone had something special to enjoy, which made the evening even more enjoyable. In addition to the fantastic food, Chef Stipe left our kitchen spotless, which was the cherry on top of an already fantastic evening. If you’re looking for a talented chef who can create an amazing dining experience, look no further than Chef Stipe. Thank you, Chef Stipe, for an incredible meal and a delightful evening!

Outstanding!

Stipe was a brilliant chef and the food was delicious, we booked him as a 30th birthday treat but loved it so much we would like to do this every holiday! The food was so delicious, amazing quality and the portions were huge we even had some for lunch the next day! I would 100% recommend

What a wonderful experience! Definitely a highlight of our trip to stay in the comfort of our lodging & have an authentic professional meal cooked for us. Every dish was delicious. Very accommodating to any food allergies & every need we had. Would 100% recommend!

Had Chef Stipe and Andrija come to our villa to do some food for final night of a stag weekend. Everyone thought the food was delicious, they were the perfect balance between engaging and giving us space and they adapted perfectly to the space and environment of the villa. Best thing - just two really decent guys! Really made a special end to our weekend. Would very highly recommend.

Chef Stipe is a great chef, we had a lovely night with great food and perfectly matched with our group. Also the dishes were big enough and the quality of the food was really high. Once again thank you chef Stipe!

The experience by Stipe and Andrija was the highlight of our trip. The quality of food and paired cocktails / wines was unbelievable and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They catered for a group of 8 at our villa and everything was absolutely perfect. The attention to detail and enthusiasm for delivering a high quality service was very clear. Thank you again to you both.

We had chef and co come in for a hen do of 11 women! He was in contact the weekend before up to the day confirming all details. They provided incredible service. From table decor, to waiter services. Very kind and friendly. Just brilliant. Highly recommend. Thank you for making 11 women very happy!

Chef Stripe was perfect for our girls weekend in Split. He was accomodating, creating a personalised menu within our budget, he was professional, kept in touch and had excellent communication skills. On the day he arrived promptly, served the most incredible food which was delicious and there was plenty of it! He gave a good background to the food, letting us know more about where it had come from and the background, creating a professional and personable touch to everything. We couldn’t recommend him more!

Chef Stipe and his Sous Chef, Andrea, were absolutely incredible and delivered an experience that surpassed our expectations! We asked for a menu of local Croatian food and a sampling of local olive oil and fresh bread. To our absolute delight, we were treated with gorgeous fresh bread that was made personally by Chef Stipe in the morning. He and Andrea also sourced some exclusive and fantastic olive oil samples from local farms - what a treat! It only got better from there. We enjoyed an amazing smoked fish spread, truffle pasta, and a sampling of meat and vegetables that they grilled right in our very own barbeque pit! If you haven't been to Croatia, a barbeque is a large outside fireplace that requires precision technique to both get the fire going and also break it down to get the coals just right for cooking. The barbeque effort created a fun dinner-theater atmosphere and our group of 10 enjoyed every minute of it. It's also important to note that both Chef Stipe and Sous Chef Andrea are very knowledgeable when it comes to Croatian wines. Our villa was stocked with some good wines but the chefs were masterful with pairings. If this wasn't enough, our desserts were sourced from an incredible pastry chef who is very well known in Split. There were options for everyone - chocolate, cream, fruit - absolutely delicious. I'm a huge fan of French pastries and desserts and every single option was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. Now - we expected a nice meal but the chefs were both very personable and really went out of their way to make our evening special. And their work ethic is amazing. The chefs spent days sourcing and prepping for our event, which was evident in the quality of the food and their presentation of each dish. Additionally, they travelled from Split by ferry to Brac and back, with lengthy drives required to reach both ferry crossings, on the day of our event. But one final detail will absolutely blow your mind. Sous Chef Andrea had become a new father to a baby girl the day before our event. He took care to make his wife and baby comfortable with relatives but then joined Chef Stipe in working incredibly hard to make our evening incredibly memorable. I sincerely can't thank them enough for all the energy, quality, and attention to detail they put into our event. We will absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a talented Chef and a great event experience.

Everything was perfect for my honeymoon and my wife’s 30th bday. Professional and everything tasted perfect. The kitchen looked like no one was in it cooking after they cleaned and left. The chef regaled us with the origins of the food, and was kind enough to provide recommendations for the rest of our trip. The level of service and accommodation provided was far beyond our expectations.

Great service, we loved it!

Fantastic dinner with fresh local ingredients including tomatoes from chefs home garden. Highly recommend this local chef duo for any occasion - we will be using them again!

Our chef was incredible ! We had such a great experience.

Chef Stipe was amazing! Every course was better than the last. Many people said it was the best prosciutto and pate they had ever had. Would highly recommend!

Stipe is professional and very polite I had a wonderful evening celebrating my 60 years birthday

Chef Stipe and his assistant Andre (sp) were AMAZING! From the time they arrived they were very friendly engaging and attentive to our needs. They created such an amazing atmosphere for us to celebrate our anniversary. Their food and wine knowledge was impeccable. The food was to die for and the portions were huge! The entire experience was second to none! I will be getting in touch with them again the next time we are in the area!

We are so happy we went for Take a Chef and the incredible Chef Stipe! The food was really amazing! The Chef and the waiter made us feel very relaxed in our home. We had bought some wine ourself and while we were getting ready, and the chef was preparing the food, the waiter had read about the wine and paired it perfectly to our food. They were funny, attentive and very friendly and the food was SO good!! The experience made us feel special and it was truly an incredible experience!

Everything was great. Food, service, wine.. much food, Chef and staff where wonderful people.

The overall experience was incredible. Chef Stipe’s food first and foremost was the highlight of everything. Each course was better then the next. The communication was easy and attentive. I highly recommend the wine paring also. The portions were huge and it would be impossible to leave the meal hungry. Everyone on the trip agreed it was the best meal we had on the trip and that included a Michelin starred restaurant we ate at earlier in the trip. The kitchen was left spotless. Chef Stipe and the Sommelier even stayed after dinner for a drink to tell us about the area. If you are in the Split area don’t hesitate at all to go with Chef Stipe and his team. I couldn’t recommend the entire experience more highly.
