    When you travel, the standard of the table should travel with you. We fly Michelin-trained private chefs to villas on the Côte d'Azur, charter yachts through the Cyclades, ski chalets in Verbier and Courchevel, beach houses in Barbados and country estates across Europe — so the cooking inside your address feels every bit as considered as the restaurant you would have chosen in town.

    Every menu is written from scratch around your destination, your guests and the rhythm of your week. Markets walked on arrival, day-boat fish at the door, sommelier-paired wines on request and a kitchen left spotless each night. Travel, accommodation and visas are coordinated quietly in the background; the only thing you think about is the evening itself.

    Quick Answers

    Worldwide at a Glance

    Why hire a private chef abroad instead of dining out?

    A private chef abroad gives you the standards of a top restaurant inside the privacy of your own villa, yacht or chalet — without the table-time, the travel back at midnight or the compromise on menu. Your party stays together, children are fed properly, dietaries are handled invisibly and the wine is your own.

    Where in the world can you send a chef?

    We regularly send chefs to France (Côte d'Azur, Saint-Tropez, Provence, the Alps), Italy (Lake Como, Tuscany, Sardinia, Amalfi), Greece (Mykonos, Santorini, the Cyclades), Switzerland (Verbier, Gstaad, St Moritz), Barbados, Mustique, St Barths, the Hamptons, Ibiza, Mallorca, Marbella, Dubai and the Netherlands.

    How does travel and accommodation work?

    Flights, transfers, on-site accommodation and per diems are itemised transparently inside the proposal. We coordinate directly with your villa manager, captain, EA or family office, so logistics never reach your inbox.

    Total privacy — your party, your villa, your night

    There is no other table next to yours, no service window dictating the pace and no other guests. Your chef cooks for you alone, in the rhythm your evening asks for — drinks on the terrace pushed to ten, a course held back while the children finish swimming, a long, slow finish to the night under the lights.

    A menu written for the trip, not a fixed card

    Every menu is built bespoke around your destination, your guests and the week you are spending together. Light Mediterranean lunches by the pool, a long sommelier-paired tasting on the final night, a children's table that quietly mirrors the adults' — your chef writes it all from scratch, and rewrites it as the week unfolds.

    Michelin-trained chefs — anywhere your address sits

    Every chef we send abroad is Michelin-trained, fully insured for international travel and used to working inside private homes, yacht galleys and chalet kitchens. They land, they walk the local market, and within hours the cooking inside your villa is indistinguishable from the best restaurant on the island.

    Full-service teams on request

    Add a sous, a sommelier, butlers or front-of-house service for larger parties and milestone evenings. We've staffed birthday weeks in Saint-Tropez, charter weeks through the Cyclades, family Christmases in the Caribbean and New Year residencies in the Alps — quietly, properly and to the standards your household expects.

    Zero planning, zero compromise

    We coordinate travel, accommodation, visas, provisioning, equipment hire and on-site logistics directly with your villa manager, captain or family office. You share the dates, the address and the brief; we deliver a chef who arrives, cooks beautifully and leaves the kitchen spotless every night.

    Sourced locally, finished to restaurant standards

    Day-boat fish from the harbour. Tomatoes, stone fruit and herbs from the morning market. Regional cheeses, local wines, the right olive oil. Specialist ingredients — truffles, caviar, dry-aged beef, native lobster — sourced through trusted international merchants and flown in where the destination doesn't deliver.
