Chef Danny Mowatt

With years of experience crafting exceptional dining experiences, I bring a passion for food, hospitality, and innovation to every meal I create. As a two-time James Beard Award finalist and 40-under-40 honoree, I’ve dedicated my career to elevating private dining, blending high-end culinary techniques with locally inspired flavors.

My approach to food is centered on seasonality, quality ingredients, and thoughtful execution. Whether preparing a multi-course tasting menu, an intimate farm-to-table gathering, or a refined comfort food experience, I focus on creating dishes that tell a story. Each ingredient is carefully sourced, every flavor balanced with intention, and every meal designed to leave a lasting impression.

My experience spans a range of settings, from luxury mountain retreats to exclusive private residences. I understand the nuances of tailoring a dining experience to fit the occasion, ensuring that every detail—from menu planning to presentation—is executed seamlessly. In addition to my work as a private chef, I offer pantry and wine cellar management services, helping clients maintain a well-stocked kitchen curated to their tastes and lifestyle.

For me, being a chef is more than just cooking; it’s about creating connections through food. I take pride in curating experiences that bring people together, spark conversation, and turn a meal into a memorable event. Whether you’re looking for a fine dining experience in the comfort of your home or a personalized culinary journey, I look forward to bringing my expertise and creativity to your table.
