Excellent experience, menu was great, all of my guests were very happy with the food! Would be happy to have back

¡Una experiencia gastronómica increíble! La comida estuvo deliciosa y el sabor de cada platillo fue impecable. Además de una presentación impecable y muy cuidada, el chef se tomó el tiempo de explicarnos cada plato detalladamente, lo cual hizo la velada aún más especial. Sin duda, superó todas nuestras expectativas. ¡100% recomendado!

She was amazing and so was the food. We were very hally with her and my 1 year devoured everything.

Simone was very professional and communicated with us throughout to make sure every dish was exactly to our expectations. He came to our villa for a pasta-making class, which was such a fun experience for everyone. Afterwards, he cooked and served the pasta we had made, and left the kitchen spotlessly clean. We highly recommend Simone and would definitely book him again next time we’re in Tuscany!

Chef Carlos was wonderful. The food was fresh and delicious. My party and I appreciated his positive nature and ability to pivot and adjust to a shortened time frame.

Chef Elena was great from the start. She was communicative and cooperative. She came up with great ideas around our budget. The food was excellent. Thank you

Excelente servicio y calidad de la comida. Muy satisfechos

A brilliant dinner with friends – very generous portions and exquisite food. Teodoro made us the best ravioli we’ve ever tasted. Thanks again to the chef, who even bakes his own bread and makes his own breadsticks.

We had a wonderful experience. Lots of clear and responsive communication leading up to the dinner. Our supper for 15 was loved by all.

Chef Stefania exceeded all of my expectations from a food perspective and her engagement. From the moment she got to our home until she left we had great conversation while she prepared wonderful dishes. My wife and I will never be able to eat Italian food the same way again. Everything she made was top tier. She made us feel pampered the whole way through. Stefania is a wonderful person and we can’t wait to hire her again.

Todo exquisito y Álvaro muy agradable.

Incredible food and presentation!

Maeva a été top, nous avons passé une très bonne soirées. Merci

Fantastic experience! We would definitely recommend... an incredible relaxing evening and the food was delicious. Exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much!

Elia (and her assistant, Regina) were both outstanding. Elia's communication from the start, in terms of curating a menu that suited a wide mix of tastes, was great; on the evening itself, Elia was lovely to deal with, extremely professional, and produced high quality canapés, starters, mains and desserts which was enjoyed by all. This was a 19 person event, ranging from kids to octogenarians, and featuring vegetarians, gluten-free and allergies, and everyone felt that the evening was a huge success - and Elia was absolutely core to that. Thank you!

An amazing service provided by Darren! He arrived on time, brought all his own equipment, plates and cutlery and left the kitchen cleaner than when he found it! We have an open plan kitchen/diner and he was very discreet. He explained the dishes well and the food was INCREDIBLE. Would 1000% recommend Darren to anyone looking for a chef experience!

Sarah Jane was a joy to have. It was our first experience with a chef at our holiday villa & everyone in the party of 10 loved it. It was very easy to organise & we would definitely do it again.

We had a lovely evening with Sam. The food a fresh and well prepared. He was very responsive and collaborative during the preparation and really a joy to have in the kitchen. He did a lovely table service and the kitchen was cleaner after he left than before. Highly recommend!
