Very professional and a genuine nice person can highly recommend Sergei Thanks a lot

Sergei was incredible. We hired him for a private rehearsal dinner at a villa for 15 guests. He stayed engaged to let me know he was on the way, and was very organized. They worked effectively and efficiently in the butler’s pantry, set the table and announced when dinner was ready. They also cleaned up very well. Now to the important part! The food….DELICIOUS AND WOWWW! The spring rolls with the sauce was my favorite- the textures and flavor, everyone talked about how delicious the food was for a while after dinner. The fruit was so juicy and the mango sticky rice was one of the best I’ve had. I highly recommend this chef, so happy we chose him, and will definitely choose him again in the future. He was so patient with us as well considering people were giving speeches during dinner, lengthening the dinner time. He was so nice and respectful. Not only was the food fabulous, he was great too. Thank you Sergei for making my rehearsal memorable and serving the guests one of the best meals!!!!

Sergei was an excellent chef. We had unique needs for what was to be done. Basically, I, an American, had rented a swanky Airbnb to impress a Thai lady I had recently met. I needed a blend of foods that would satisfy both her Eastern tastes as well as my Western tastes. Sergei came up with an excellent fusion menu, a set of new items that he had never created before. I gave him the freedom to create and he took full advantage of it. In the end, we got a meal that was enjoyable and delicious for me as well as my Thai girlfriend. As any foreigner dating a Thai knows, that can be very tough to do! Sergei did it, was professional, and great to work with. 10 out of 10, would eat again.

Great service

Chef Sergai was nothing but amazing and very lovely! Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted great! Highly recommend if you'd like a private chef for your stay in Phuket!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Sergei cook for us at our villa, and the experience was beyond exceptional. The food was simply delicious, with fresh and flavorful ingredients that elevated every dish. Each plate was a work of art—visually inviting and every bite was a treat for the senses. Sergei’s communication was excellent from start to finish. He took the time to explain each dish, adding a personal and thoughtful touch to the experience. The table was arranged beautifully, creating an ambiance that made the meal feel extra special. Not only was the cooking outstanding, but Sergei also left the kitchen spotless, handling everything with professionalism and care. Sergei truly made our day unforgettable, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. If you’re looking for an exceptional culinary experience, look no further!

Very convenient and practical service! Chef Sergei was professional and he delivered to our table exactly what we looked for! Thank you Chef Sergei!

Chef Sergei Muradian was great! He came up with a wonderful, varied menu which suited the needs for all of us in the group (both meat eaters and vegans). There was plenty of food for everyone and the flavours were very strong and delicious. He did very well to provide all of the ingredients and cleaned up so we didn't have to. Thank you for everything!
