Private chef at home: how it works and what it costs

Yacht Aicon 82 Soaris con equipaggio in Sicilia

You do not need a boat to have a chef. A private chef at home cooks a dinner for a few guests, cooks every day in your holiday villa or signs the menu of an event.

How it works

  1. Tell us the occasion, date, place and number of guests.
  2. The chef proposes a bespoke menu, with your preferences and intolerances.
  3. The chef arrives with the shopping done, cooks, serves and leaves the kitchen tidy.

The cuisines

  • Mediterranean and regional Italian.
  • Fish, crudo and sushi.
  • Japanese, fusion and world cuisine.
  • Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free menus.
  • Grill, barbecue and pizza.
  • Pastry and celebration cakes.

The occasions

  • A romantic dinner or an anniversary.
  • A week in a villa with the chef every day.
  • Birthdays, parties and corporate dinners.
  • Lunch on board during a charter.

What it costs

The price depends on menu, number of guests and duration. A private dinner usually starts from a per-person price including ingredients and service; for a week in a villa we agree a daily rate. We always send you a clear quote before you confirm.

Request a chef from the Private chef page: you can do it even without booking a boat.
