Private Chef Frincu Alexandru

I’m a fine dining private chef with 11+ years of professional kitchen experience across Romania, Italy, Austria and the UK. Trained through demanding kitchens and high-pressure service, I bring refined technique, consistency and attention to detail to every table. I create elegant private dining experiences centred on seasonal ingredients, clean flavours, precise plating and seamless service. Each menu is tailored to the occasion, guest preferences and dietary requirements, delivering a polished experience from intimate dinners to larger private events.
