Restaurant-quality dining in your villa

A private chef for villas on Palm Jumeirah and Emirates Hills, penthouses, yachts and desert events in Dubai. Tasting dinners, residencies for visiting families and large celebrations.

I bring wild ingredients and ancient techniques together with the flavours of the region: dates, saffron, cardamom and dried lime, hammour and other Gulf fish, and slow-cooked dishes in the spirit of machboos. Drinks are arranged in line with local rules for each venue.

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.
