As a private chef, I specialize in creating personalized, gourmet meals tailored to my clients' tastes, dietary needs, and preferences, often preparing dishes in their homes for intimate gatherings, family dinners, or special occasions. I bring culinary expertise, attention to detail, and a passion for quality ingredient to ensure a memorable dining experience, all while maintaining professionalism and discretion. Whether crafting menus for health-conscious clients or indulging in luxurious, decadent dinners, I aim to elevate every meal into an enjoyable and customized culinary journey. Additionally we will always have a waiter or waitress on hand to assist with the service, cleaning up and ensuring guests can relax and enjoy their evening.

For me, cooking is...

Pretty much all I know, been doing in and around kitchens and food since a little kid

I learned to cook at...

Bridge Street Kitchen, The Gallery, Gleneagles, Roux.

A cooking secret...

Using and treating each ingredient with the attention and care needed

Our experience with Callum was great, polite friendly and engaging food was fantastic, thank you

Chef Callum was lovely! Arrived and served the food in perfect time - accompanied by a lovely waiter who helped the evening flow seamlessly. Would absolutely recommend (special shout out to his scallop and steak dishes…they’re AMAZING!!!)

Callum was a 1st class professional He engaged, communicated throughout the whole process and delivered the most amazing experience for my group of 8 Americans The food was outstanding and an experience that they will all never forget A truly magical time

Chef Callum has been great to work with! He’s been attentive to my celiac husband and my preference for fish; willing to collaborate on menus. He’s communicated timely, arrives when he says he will, and is overall engaging. We are looking forward to our next meal prepared by Chef Callum!

Callum was brilliant from start to finish. Great communication, super easy to deal with, lovely food. A fantastic experience all round.
