Amuse Co. (Peter & Amanda) is a private dining concept based in the Okanagan, focused on seasonal, ingredient-driven cooking.

Each menu is thoughtfully designed around what is fresh and local, combining modern technique with a simple, refined approach to hospitality.

The goal is to create intimate dining experiences that feel effortless, elevated, and memorable—whether for a small gathering or a larger celebration.

For me, cooking is...

For us, cooking is more than a skill; it’s a passion and lifestyle. We love the power of food to bring people together, creating moments that linger.

I learned to cook at...

We learned to cook through experience, working in kitchens and building a style rooted in seasonal, simple food.

A cooking secret...

Letting each ingredient shine.We believe that great cooking is about highlighting the natural flavour of every element, allowing them to come together

Our chef Peter Keo was amazing. He was punctual and worked with us in developing a delicious meal without potatoes. Every meal was fresh, delicious and had beautiful presentation. We do wish the chef communicated in advance that Peter was coming instead of herself as it was a bit of a surprise. Other than that, fantastic meal to celebrate our bride to be!

Chef Amanda and her business partner Chef Peter were exceptional! This was a one-of-a-kind experience that brought us some of the best food we have ever had, as well as one of the best experiences we have ever had. We can't wait to do this again!!!

Chef Amanda was amazing! Thank you!

Peter and Amanda’s team work to provide an excellent dinner to me and our 6 friends was fantastic!! We could highly recommend them and will use the service again! Top notch!
