Chef Nicholas Bianchini

Nicholas was personable and lovely and our dinner was delicious. Highly recommend!

We had the pleasure of having Nicholas, as our private chef, and the experience was absolutely exceptional! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The food was nothing short of amazing—each dish was expertly crafted, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. Beyond his culinary skills, Nicholas was a delight to have around. His warm personality and professionalism made the entire experience even more enjoyable. It truly felt like we had a friend cooking for us. We couldn't be more satisfied with our experience and highly recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience. Thank you, Nicholas, for making our event so special!

Great experience with Nicholas! Private dining for 7 of us on our last night in Italy and the food was absolutely wonderful. It was a very special experience. Would recommend to anyone.

Chef Nicolas was amazing ! We had the pleasure to have him with us for 3 nights and it was magical. He can do classic italian foid or fusion and everything was perfect ! + he is such a nice human ! Book him !!!

Nicholas was a wonderful addition to our Tuscany experience. He was highly organized and efficient. His dishes were well presented and very tasty with a nice variety in flavors and texture. Nicholas was very personable and provided a nice description of the food and its history. He also left the kitchen in impeccable shape. We really enjoyed the evening and would highly recommend Nicholas.

I’ll be very honest; This service is incredible. I was apprehensive using a booking service like this, especially from another country. The ease of booking, prompt communication, quality of service, and food was far better than I expected. Our Chef provided a menu weeks before the day of service and took into consideration both dietary restriction and allergies for our group of 25+ people. He was thoughtful with the menu choices and presentation, and his staff did a great job with cleaning afterwards. I would use this service again in a heartbeat. It does what it advertises and with the quality you are hoping for.

Absolutely thrilled with our experience! We highly recommend Nicholas Bianchini, he was very flexible with our plans and menu, he gave us a story about each dish, and the food itself was incredible!

Right on time in the countryside - profesionelle and with a smile Very very tastefuld an delicius food He left the kitchen Very tight It was a pleasure having him around He was polite and amazing Young ????

We loved Nicholas! And we are a fussy group, not easy to please with high standards. His proposal exactly matched our ask, he was adaptable and flexible - right up to the last minute. He arrived early, created a charming table, was not fazed by our old Italian kitchen, and the food was wondeful. He helped make our family reunion in Tuscany even more memorable. I had multiple proposals from different chefs and so glad I chose him!

We had a wonderful experience, the food was delicious, local and well balanced. We were a group of 19, including 10 children and everyone had a great time.

Great guy and an amazing chef with a passion for food and local produce. Would definitely recommend!

Nicholas was a great choice for our special family dinner in Tuscany! He cooked typical Tuscan dishes, told us the story of each one and they were all VERY delicious (ps: We had the best Tiramisu ever!). He is also very polite and kind. It was a pleasure to have him cooking for us!

Nicholas was wonderful - he was professional and clearly passionate about presenting local Italian foods. He catered very well to individual dietary needs and the food was absolutely delicious. While everything was good, the highlights for us were the appetizer meatballs and deconstructed tiramisu. He was great to chat with, however if we had not wished to converse with him would have remained very discreet. Would use again.

Chef Nicholas provided an unforgettable culinary experience during our stay in Tuscany. His vibrant energy was palpable in every dish he prepared, each showcasing a delightful blend of local cuisine with a modern twist that truly worked wonders on the palate. What stood out most was Chef Nicholas's unique approach to storytelling through food. Each dish was not just a culinary masterpiece but a narrative woven with tales of its origin and the inspirations behind its creation. It was fascinating to hear about the local ingredients and traditions that influenced his cooking, adding a deeper appreciation to every bite. Beyond his culinary skills, Chef Nicholas was a joy to have around. His infectious enthusiasm and ability to gauge the mood of our group made the whole experience delightful. Whether sharing anecdotes about Tuscan culture or simply enjoying the moment with us, he effortlessly slotted into our gatherings, enhancing our overall enjoyment. I cannot thank Chef Nicholas & Samantha enough for making our time in Tuscany truly special. His passion for food, coupled with his engaging personality, left an indelible mark on our group, creating memories that we will cherish forever. If you're looking to elevate your culinary experience in Tuscany, Chef Nicholas is undoubtedly the chef to call upon.

Chef Nicholas was absolutely spectacular! We hired him for a cooking class, a wedding rehearsal dinner and post-wedding brunch. We could not have asked for a better chef or a better experience. He was professional and fun. Our group loved engaging with him. The dishes were outstanding. The presentation was outstanding. He handled our large group of 20+ people flawlessly. I would highly recommend Chef Nicholas for any occasion.

Our family had a wonderful experience with Nicolas! He taught us how to cook a few delicious traditional Tuscan dishes. He not only explained how to prepare the dishes, but the stories behind them. He was very engaging with the whole family. He had a vast knowledge of the dishes he prepared. All of the food was delicious, and we have discovered some new favorite recipes. It was a special night of food, laughter, and good conversation that we will remember for years to come. Cannot rate Nicolas highly enough.

Nicholas went above and beyond to give us a perfect Italian dinner experience. He was so friendly and easy to talk to. He answered all of our questions about Italian culture, food, travels, his cooking experiences…everything. The food was DELICIOUS! It was exactly as he had explained it in the menu beforehand, and the flavors were the best we’ve had in Italy yet. We especially all loved his sauces and want to recreate them when we return home! And then the dessert. It was unbelievable. Everything about our experience was perfect and we would absolutely recommend to anyone the Take A Chef service, and we will definitely want Nicholas to cook again when we return.
