Private chef in Copenhagen

Restaurant-quality dining in your residence

A private chef for homes in Frederiksberg, Østerbro, Christianshavn and up the coast in Hellerup and Klampenborg. I cook Nordic tasting dinners at home, relaxed family meals, and weddings and parties of any size.

Nordic produce is home ground for me, and I know its techniques well: fermenting, curing, smoking and cooking over embers. Here I cook with Limfjord oysters, langoustines from Læsø, new potatoes from Samsø, ramsons from the beech woods in spring, and elderflower and sea buckthorn later in the year.

I have spent a decade in Michelin-starred kitchens, as Sous Chef of R&D in the Noma group and Head Chef at Kokkeriet, and I bring that standard to every table I cook for. My story.

Private chef in Copenhagen: good to know

Can you cook a New Nordic tasting menu at home?

Yes. I cook a seasonal tasting menu built on wild and fermented ingredients, served course by course at your table.

Yes. The woods and shores of North Zealand have ramsons, elderflower, sea herbs and mushrooms in season, and we can cook them together.

Do you cook in North Zealand summer houses too?

Yes. Travel and accommodation are added to the quote, and I plan menus and shopping before I arrive.
