Chef Christian Briner

Chef At Home In Anchorage

With over two decades of hands-on culinary experience, I specialize in private chef services, remote high-end hospitality, and dynamic food operations. My journey has taken me from luxury yachts and remote Alaskan lodges to elite hunting clubs and international villas. I thrive in versatile environments, whether I’m leading a team, crafting bespoke menus, or managing full culinary operations in off-grid settings.

My approach blends rustic authenticity with refined technique, always guided by seasonality, sustainability, and a deep respect for ingredients. I’m comfortable adapting to a wide range of dietary preferences and cultural cuisines, and I bring a calm, confident presence to both front- and back-of-house dynamics.

Notable highlights include:

• Charter Chef for Sea Wolf expeditions through Alaska’s Inside Passage (2025)

• Private Chef at Palisade Flats Hunt Club, an exclusive invitation-only destination (2025)

• Culinary Lead for TerraNova Equestrian Center during seasonal events (2025)

• Lead Chef for high-profile clients across the Caribbean, Europe, and the continental U.S.

I value collaboration, precision, and creativity in every kitchen I enter. With a strong logistical mind and deep culinary roots, I’m ready to support high-level operations or serve as an adaptable solo chef wherever needed.

For me, cooking is...

Food is my life, cooking and creating is my passion, nature is my inspiration. Food is the first medicine, I am a holistic culinary alchemist.

I learned to cook at...

Reared in my Grandma’s catering business, I learned proper work ethic and sense of urgency very young. That's where it all began, and ritually no end

A cooking secret...

-that there are no secrets, food & nature is to medicine as inspiration & creativity is to truth, the breaking of bread, all is to be shared with all.
