Chef Mika Tolkachev

Private Chef In Dubai

Have been shared the vision of the fine dining with:

- The Ritz Carlton Hotel

- Le Duck French restaurant Michelin Starred

- Radisson Collection Hotel

- FIVE Palm Jumeirah

- FIVE Jumeirah Village

Just a bit of magic in hands, miracle ingredients and fairy techniques and we are ready to awake your inner gourmet.

Pay 50% amount at the end of the dinner - derive the pleasure from rewarding Chef after distinguished dinner.

For me, cooking is...

...a conversation with God

I learned to cook at...

...the kitchen of Le Duck French restaurant under direction of Michelin starred Chef Jerome Koustillas.

A cooking secret...

Kitchen is my life, there are no secrets. Just do what you love and you will be loved by people you do it for.

Miko was a great chef. From the moment he arrived, you know you're in good hands. He took charge, didn't let us move a finger to help. From the various dishes he prepared, to the plating - everything was really really good. His knowledge for food was top, and he was really nice to talk to. Would definitely be calling him again, and would highly recommend him!
