Chef At Home in Tel Aviv
Get to know me better
“Private chef creating in-home dining experiences inspired by South African braai and Mediterranean flavors.”
I’m a South African–trained chef with a strong background in hospitality and live-fire cooking.
My style is generous, seasonal, and ingredient-driven, inspired by traditional South African braai and Mediterranean flavors.
I specialize in private in-home dining experiences, cooking everything fresh in the guest’s kitchen and leaving the space clean and discreet afterward. I enjoy creating relaxed but memorable meals — from bold, fire-led braais to refined comfort and sharing-style menus.
I currently work in professional hospitality while building my private chef business, bringing restaurant standards, calm service, and personal attention into every home.
Kosher options are available, and menus are always tailored to the guests and the space.
