Private chef in Skagen

Restaurant-quality dining in your villa

A private chef for summer houses in Skagen, Gammel Skagen and Hulsig, at the very tip of Denmark where two seas meet at Grenen. I cook seafood dinners in that famous light, every meal of your summer stay, and weddings in the dunes.

Skagen is a fishing town, known for its prawns and the fish sold at the harbour, with plaice, cod and langoustines from nearby Læsø. I add sea buckthorn and rose hips from the dunes, new Danish potatoes and smoked fish, and I cook over embers on the beach when the wind allows.

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.
