Chef Lucian Dunn

Private Chef In Dubai

My passion is to see people's faces light up when they try my food. That’s been the case since before I became a professional chef with 10 years of experience, managing kitchens in 3 cities. Ever since I was a child, I’ve been cooking for my family and friends; there was no better feeling for me than to see them amazed by a delicious meal. I’ve chosen the career path of my passion and this speaks through my dishes. Book Chef Dunn and get a taste of my passion.

For me, cooking is...

For me cooking is, the most fundamental form of caring for someone. Since the dawn of humanity we’ve been cooking for each other.

I learned to cook at...

I was fortunate to start learning to cook professionally at. HCHS in Jamaica the renowned culinary College. I further my learning with experience.

A cooking secret...

My secret in the kitchen is to let nature take the lead. The ingredients has magnificent complexity all on their own my job is to not spoil them.

Chef Lucian is amazing

Cheff Dunn is amazing, my husband and I enjoyed the experience. He is very easy to communicate with and loved the menu he created for us 10/10, his food is scrumptious. Very happy to have used his services and looking forward to try new menus from him soon.

Chef Lucian explained the menu very well and presented the dishes in a beautiful manner as well. His Jamaican menu was not only different but had a lot of intriguing flavors in them. Will certainly have him over for more dinners and parties going forward at our home.

Great service and choices in terms of menu / cuisine. Chef rooster is great

My First time in take chef amazing expirience all’ very very good thanks chef

Chef Lucian did not only provide an incredible experience to us and our guests, but also captured us by his passion for his profession. It is very rare to have all the dining courses spot on but with him it was definitely a 10/10 for all what he served (quality, taste, presentation and overall service). On the personal side it was definitely a joy to have him around and interact with him.

Best experience ever!! Che Lucian did an incredible job and menu was impeccable! Every course was delicious and you could taste the heart and soul put into it. The journey from menu curation till execution was top notch. Attention to detail with the dietary requirements and all fresh ingredients! We couldn’t wish for a better surprise private dining experience. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lucien was brilliant from start to finish, he worked with us to creaye a menu that worked for our guests, including adapting for vegetarians, he was friendly, professional and the food was absolutely outstanding .. highly recommend

Very responsive to proposal and menu changes, provided other menu options as well. Excellent chef !! Would use again if I came back to Dubai

Thank you one more time

One of the most incredible meals I have ever had. I couldn't recommend Lucian enough; his depth of knowledge and incredible skill in the kitchen is something to behold. 10/10 experience.
