Chef Pierre Gaudin

Private Chef In Ultimo

I have been Sydney based for 10 years where I have met passionate people, great produce and a vibrant coffee community.

I am a French Chef with 20 years of experience in fine restaurants and hotels. Born and raised in the surroundings of Paris – I have always been keen to travel allowing me to discover new food and meet people. I worked overseas which has enhanced my culinary curiosity and my adaptability – as well as my will to share my French skills.

I aim to pick seasonal produce and organic ingredients with local farmers and suppliers. My food target is to cook healthy and dynamic dishes to be more energetic and have a better effective mind.

Pierre was fantastic. Great food, service and would highly recommend. Can’t wait to use him again

We will always remember the lovely night we had in our garden with Pierre serving his fantastic food up to us, far more personal than being in a restaurant - and such a lovely change to be at home and not have to lift a finger! Thanks Pierre the whole evening was fabulous. Love that entree especially - satay powder - who’d have thought!

This experience exceeded all of our expectations. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner served by Chef Pierre. He was punctual, dressed the table so we felt like we were in a 5* restaurant, the food was incredible quality and the service throughout the meal (keeping drinks topped up etc..) was faultless. The kitchen was left incredibly clean when he left. We would book for Chef Pierre to visit us again without hesitation.

Chef Pierre is a highly professional executive chef, who has the very highest standards. His dishes were gorgeous and presented beautifully. Our evening was absolutely wonderful and of the highest calibre thanks to Pierre. Our guests from Melbourne & Sydney all want to do this type of event themselves! Thankyou Chef Pierre!

Pierre was wonderful - great food and great service. He helped to make a special occasion even more special. Thank you, Pierre!

Pierre was very attentive to our requests, ensuring that the menu is suitable for the family. The food was amazing, lots of flavour, and quantity was perfect. it was a fantastic experience. Loved it.

Pierre was absolutely amazing! Our meal was spectacular and seamlessly catered to all guest dietary requirements. We could not has asked for anything more!

Absolutely amazing! It was very special to have a fine dining experience at home with Chef Pierre. Chef Pierre is a consummate professional who prepared and served dishes that were beautiful and complex, each bite had unique textures and explosion of tastes, as one guest said on the night “Pierre this dish is like a piece of art”, it is clear Chef Pierre has worked in the kitchens of Michelin Star restaurants in France. Throughout the evening Chef Pierre was gracious with guests when they asked him questions, introduced each dish and made it look so effortless when a professional photographer I hired followed him capturing photos of him cooking, preparing and serving dishes to guests. All of the 9 guests who came to dinner could not stop talking about the outstanding food and how special the night was for them and as my husband said “it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life”. Thank you Pierre for making my husband’s 40th birthday incredibly special and memorable!
