Private chef in London

Restaurant-quality dining in your residence

I cook in private homes and townhouses in Mayfair, Belgravia, Chelsea, Kensington, Notting Hill, Hampstead and out to Richmond. Restaurant-style tasting menus at your own table, birthday dinners and weekly cooking for busy households.

London lets me shop the best of Britain: Cornish fish, Colchester and West Mersea oysters, English asparagus in May, Yorkshire forced rhubarb in winter and farmhouse cheeses like Montgomery’s Cheddar and Colston Bassett Stilton. I cook them in a modern way, with smoke, ferments and wild garlic or elderflower when they are in season. English sparkling wine from Kent and Sussex makes a fine aperitif.

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.

Questions

Private chef in London: good to know

Can you cook in a small London kitchen?

Yes. I plan the menu around the kitchen I will be working in and do as much preparation as I can before I arrive.

Can you cook for a dinner party of 20 or more at home?

Yes. I cook alone for up to 12 guests, and for larger parties I bring a hired team.

Do you serve wine as well, or should we choose it?

You choose and supply the wine, and I am happy to suggest pairings for each course.

Weddings

Getting married in London?
