What you can expect
Discover a unique dining experience with a dedicated Private Chef, right at your residence or in one of the selected partner locations. Perfect for couples, families, small groups, or intimate events, this experience turns every meal into an exclusive moment, with attention to every detail.
You can choose from Basic, Regular, or Premium seasonal menus, created with fresh ingredients and haute cuisine techniques:
Basic Menu: Starter, First Course (Pasta or Risotto), Dessert and Small Pastry
Regular Menu: Amuse-Bouche, Starter, First Course, Second Course, Dessert, and Small Pastries
Premium Menu: Amuse-Bouche, two Starters, First Course, Second Course, Dessert, and Small Pastries
All menus include warm bread with EVO oil or salted butter, and can be adapted to food intolerances or preferences. For those who want an even more exclusive experience, extras are available such as wine pairing, black or white truffle, caviar, tablecloths and fine tableware, as well as dining room staff for groups under 10 guests.
The chef arrives 30–60 minutes before the scheduled time to prepare the kitchen and the mise en place, organising everything in a fine dining restaurant style. During the meal, each dish is served with care and attention to plating, rhythm, and the overall experience. When you're done, the kitchen is thoroughly cleaned and the dishwasher loaded, ensuring a worry-free service.
This experience isn't just for dinners: you can organise breakfasts, brunches, lunches, tastings, and showcooking, making it perfect for any occasion. Cooking classes and tastings, such as those dedicated to Umami, fresh pasta, or cheese and wine pairings, add an extra level of engagement and learning.
The experience can take place at home or in selected partner locations, including villas, professional kitchens, and private rooms, and extends mainly from Lake Como to Ticino, with the possibility of a wider range for groups of up to 30 people thanks to dedicated logistics.
Every detail is designed to offer comfort, elegance, and signature cuisine, creating an intimate and personalised atmosphere. From casual brunches to full gourmet dinners, from business lunches to luxury tastings, this experience lets you experience cuisine like never before, with total flexibility and the security of professional, attentive, and impeccable service.
Choose your menu, customise the dishes to your tastes and needs, and let the Private Chef turn every moment into a memorable and refined experience.
