Passionate about high-quality cuisine made from fresh, local produce, ensuring you and your guests enjoy a unique and unforgettable dining experience.

I am a professional chef with over 25 years of experience, starting in Milan and then moving to London in 2004 where I worked in high-end restaurants mainly in the Mayfair and Chelsea areas. After 15 years I relocated back to Sardinia, where I grew up, and I am now pursuing a career as a private chef to combine my passion for cooking and the Sardinian way of life.

Andrea is a fantastic chef. Highly recommended!

Andrea Cornaccio is an exceptional Sardinian chef. He produced 3 dinners for us, shopping for the best local ingredients and delivering one feast after another. No dishes were repeated and the entire spectrum of Sardinian cuisine was covered. Carefully conferring with us in excellent English, he made, among many other dishes: zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta and anchovies, a specialty Sardinian pasta with potato and mint, local small red shrimp risotto, tender and perfectly grilled tuna and swordfish, a citrus and fennel salad, and indescribably delicious tiramisu. These are only a few of his offerings, but know that he was respectful of all dietary requests by the ten guests. His were the best meals we had on the island, I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Chef Andrea Cornacchia delivered an excellent culinary experience to us and our 14 guests at our villa in Porto Cervo. He was punctual, extremely helpful and well organised from helping us in choosing the right menu for the occasion, a friendly buffet style dinner, and also went above and beyond in helping us with selecting wine, making dessert, providing wine glasses and even beautiful linen napkins. Menu was fish based, very fresh and tasty, and using mostly local Sardinian recipes which all the guests loved. The "Pentolo" was the star of the evening, a self standing big pan where Andrea coocked "live" a special fish and pasta dish in front of all of us. After dinner everything was left spotless and tidy. Truly a 5 Star experience from beginning to end. Bravo Andrea!
