private chef

Your villa is already beautiful. The right dinner makes it unforgettable.

If you’re considering hiring a private chef in Tuscany, here’s what it actually looks like: I arrive before your evening begins, take over the kitchen, and handle everything, from sourcing the finest local ingredients that morning to plating the final course and leaving the kitchen exactly as I found it. You don’t lift a finger. You just enjoy.

Every menu is designed around your preferences, dietary needs, and the season. A four-course dinner celebrating Maremma’s coastal flavors. A long Sunday lunch with hand-rolled pasta and slow-braised meat. A celebration that calls for something truly special. Whatever the occasion, nothing is generic, every dish is crafted for that table, that evening, those guests.

I’ve been working as a personal chef in Tuscany since 2013, first in the kitchens of Castello Banfi in Montalcino, then across private villas and exclusive retreats throughout the region. I know these flavors deeply and I know how to translate them into an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left.

This is not catering. It’s not a restaurant brought to your door. It’s something quieter and more personal than either.
