Private chefs in Cinque Terre

We loved having Chef Nicolas cook for us. He was amazing and the food was exceptional. We highly recommend him! He was charming and his food was authentic Italian and made our evening feel so special!!

We had the most incredible dinner cooked by Chef Nicolas . He was highly professional, communicative, and tidy. Most importantly the food was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. I would highly recommend his services to anyone wishing to arrange a private dinner for a special occasion.

Chef Alice gave us a truly astonishing and delicious experience. Her menu was the perfect fusion of old italian with a modern spin. She served several courses from a mini-appetizer through dessert. The serving sizes were perfect so that we had plenty of amazing food but did not end up overfull as so often can happen. She was personable, efficient, deeply talented and a genuine pleasure. She communicated promptly, always answering my emails and texts quickly and thoroughly. Crafted such an interesting and special menu that I didn't change one thing on her initial draft. She treated our home with care and left our kitchen spotless. We will only be in Rome for another month or so but we will absolutely hire her again and give her the highest recommendation. You won't be disappointed - she is magnificent (no exaggeration)!

Great Experience!!!!

Chef Enrico was fantastic! Personable, professional, and cooked amazing food. Several of our guests said it was the best pasta they’d ever had! Highly recommend.

I cannot recommend Chef Adolfo enough! The whole process was super easy and smooth. He read my requirements and prepared the perfect menu from the very beginning. On the day, he arrived on time and was super friendly. It was like our private cooking class!!! And then, THE FOOD! The food was next level! Everything was fresh, delicious and perfect. Please book Chef Adolfo for your private inner, you won't regret it.

Giuseppe e il suo team sono stati molto professionali, gentili e preparati. I piatti erano fantastici e all'altezza delle aspettative. Un'esperienza fantastica!

Chef Sabrina was delightful. She set a lovely table, complete with candles and a charming menu . Warm artisanal bread that she had baked herself awaited us. We enjoyed the leftover buns the next day, toasted for breakfast. The main dish of sea bass was served with yellow and red tomato tartare made with tomatoes from her own garden--a nice touch. Chef Sabrina served the many courses seamlessly and we felt we were in a fine restaurant. Our favorite dishes: the bronze drawn spaghetti with wild caught clams with pesto of clams and courgettes was amazing. We had never tasted those tiny, sweet clams before and they were a real surprise! This was one of the best dishes we had in our entire trip to Sicily!! For dessert, Chef Sabrina prepared her own version of the traditional cassatina, constructed of cake, raspberries, chocolate bits and sweetened ricotta, frosted with marzipan and garnished with fresh raspberries and finely diced candied fruit. Perfect for my birthday! Our criticisms are few. Overall, the dishes were served only slightly warm, rather than hot, which may have been as they were intended to be. The starter of grilled giant orange prawns was disappointing as the prawns were very mushy in texture. Overall, we had a wonderful evening and we recommend Chef Sabrina wholeheartedly. If you are not accustomed to eating so many courses or you wish to have the temperature of your selections a bit warmer, you should make your requests known and I am sure she will accommodate you.

Un savoureux dîner dans une ambiance chaleureuse ! Nous avons passé un délicieux moment aux côtés du chef Picard lors d'un repas entre amis. Ponctualité, excellente sélection de produits locaux pour l'élaboration du menu niçois, hygiène impeccable, je recommande vivement le chef Picard qui est de plus, très sympathique.

We loved the dinner experience with Chef Hortense. All courses were well-balanced, from amuse bouche all the way to dessert. Her wine recommendations worked really well for the different courses. Our dialogue and interaction from quotation, ordering, arrival at our place and then her work was perfect. Communication was easy when we discussed food choices, allergies, exact timing. She did a great job observing our food preferences as well as on presenting each course, alternating between French and English. As we had an open kitchen, we could follow the artistic process. We remained curious about what we ate and Hortense did a great job presenting the four courses we had, how she had prepared them, cooking style, etc. We can absolutely recommend her for a dinner party.

Absolument incroyable. Raffinement, saveurs, présentation, originalité, tout est concocté avec brio et élégance. Une expérience des plus savoureuses. Romain Mariani est doté d’une belle personnalité et cela se retrouve dans ses plats. Une très belle rencontre et expérience à renouveler pour régaler nos papilles.

Vous pouvez faire appel au Chef Johann Schopff les yeux fermés! Une très belle expérience pour un anniversaire de mariage (7 personnes). Les plats sont très biens présentés, bien travaillés et les produits de qualité. Nous nous sommes régalés. Un très bon rapport qualité prix. Bref : au top, à renouveler!

Wilco, is een geweldige kok die in elke huiskamer past. Hij heeft voor ons voortreffelijk Italiaans gekookt en wist heel veel van de wijnen maar ook van de producten af wat hij op tafel voor ons uit serveerde. Het was voor ons een avondje uit in onze eigen huis. Complimenten!

Nous avons passé un excellent moment grâce au chef Dehaye. Tout s’est très bien déroulé, des premiers échanges via l’application, en passant par le repas en lui même et la cuisine nickel après le passage du chef. Gérard est très agréable, discute volontiers avec les invités, donne des explications sur les plats servis, tout en sachant se faire discret. Il ne fait nul doute que Gérard est passionné par son métier et a à cœur de faire plaisir avec sa cuisine généreuse et gourmande. Nous ferons appel à lui sans hésiter a l’avenir.

Afgelopen week hebben wij als familie een chef aan huis laten komen. Er was wel reden voor een feestje en met 2 jonge kinderen leek dit voor ons de ideale manier om samen een avond uitgebreid te dineren. Deze manier van een chef aan huis ontvangen was zeker een topkeuze! Vincent stond in de keuken en heeft ons de meest heerlijke gerechten geserveerd. Gabriel wist daar de juiste wijnen bij te serveren en zorgde ervoor dat de rest ook op en top geregeld was. Mochten we dit nog eens doen, dan vragen we deze twee heren zeker weer! Het was een gezellige avond met heerlijk eten en drinken. En niet onbelangrijk: de keuken is brandschoon achter gelaten.

We had the best night with Terenzio. He is very kind and made sure we had nothing to worry about during dinner. During the preparations it was nice that Terenzio offered different options for the menu, so that all dietary requirements were taken into account. The food itself was great, very high quality and more than enough for everyone. Afterwards he left the kitchen cleaner than how it was before he started. I would definitely recommend Terenzio.
