Private chef in Crans-Montana

Restaurant-quality dining in your chalet

I cook in chalets and residences across Crans-Montana, from the lakes and golf course of the plateau to Lens, Chermignon and Aminona. Winter brings ski stays below the Plaine Morte glacier, and summer brings long sunny lunches facing the peaks of the Valais.

The vineyards of Sierre and Salgesch sit right below the plateau, so Pinot Noir, Cornalin and Petite Arvine belong on the table. I cook with Valais raclette cheese, dried beef, saffron grown in Mund, Valais apricots and Alpine herbs, using fire and smoke to keep it light and modern.

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.
