Chef Dina Ousmand
Chef At Home in Surrey
Get to know me better
I bring a refined yet soulful approach to private dining, rooted in both technique and global inspiration.
With over a decade of experience in the hospitality industry; my culinary perspective has been shaped by extensive travel—having explored over 20 countries and lived in five—giving me a deep understanding of diverse flavours, ingredients, and cultural traditions.
From Mediterranean coastlines to vibrant Asian markets, these experiences have influenced a style that is both versatile and intentional, blending bold flavours with thoughtful presentation. I specialize in creating curated, multi-course dining experiences that feel personal, elevated, and memorable, whether inspired by a specific region or a fusion of global influences.
Each menu I design reflects not only my professional background, but also the places I’ve lived, the people I’ve cooked for, and the stories I’ve gathered along the way—bringing a unique and immersive dining experience to every table.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
community—an expression of culture and storytelling through tradition, where flavours connect people and create meaningful, shared experiences.
I learned to cook at...
childhood, shaped by a lineage of passionate home cooks—my grandmothers, dad, and mom—who inspired my culinary journey.
A cooking secret...
there are no exact measurements, only a feeling that tells you when it’s enough.
