Chef Pedro Fernandez

Chef A Domicilio en La Santísima

*English*

Hello! I am Pedro Fernández, a Spanish Chef proudly based in Mexico for the past 10 years. Through my culinary project, "The Lemon Experience," I invite you to travel through my dishes—a reflection of the diverse markets and cultures that have shaped my career.

This journey has been a true gastronomic adventure, leading me to collaborate with renowned chefs and restaurants across Puerto Rico, Peru, and Mexico. Whether hosting exclusive Chef’s Table nights, private events, or hands-on cooking classes, my mission remains the same: to champion local ingredients by reinterpreting them through a lens of Spanish and European techniques, blended with the authentic traditions I’ve gathered throughout a decade of exploration.

*Spanish*

¡Hola! Soy Pedro Fernández, chef español. Tras 10 años viviendo y aprendiendo de la cocina en Mexico, te invito a un viaje sensorial por los mercados y sabores que han marcado mi trayectoria.

Mi cocina es el resultado de una aventura gastronómica que me llevó a recorrer y colaborar con chefs en Puerto Rico, Perú y, por supuesto, México. He transformado esas vivencias en experiencias exclusivas: desde cenas Chef's Table y eventos privados, hasta clases de cocina personalizadas. Mi filosofía se basa en el respeto absoluto al producto local, reinterpretándolo mediante la precisión de las técnicas europeas y españolas, enriquecidas con los secretos aprendidos en cada uno de mis viajes.

Para mi la cocina es...

Without a doubt, it's my passion and way of life. My kitchen is my office and the place where I spend most of my time :)

Aprendí a cocinar en...

Formados en Pais Vasco (España) en la escuela de hostelería Aiala de Karlos Arguiñano y en Akelarre (San Sebastian, 3 estrellas Michellin)

Un secreto...

Respect the product and only use fresh, seasonal products, supporting local products from where we live.

Chef Pedro was awesome! The food was amazing and we could not recommend him more for your next chef!

Pedro was attentive, personable, professional, happy, kind, thorough, and passionate about providing us a lovely experience. We are so glad he was our chef.

Absolutely the best decision we made during our trip, the food was incredible, the service was exceptional and I can't even think of a single thing I was disappointed with. 10/10 would hire again

Amazing dinner with pedro! Highly recommended

Amazing!! Everyone enjoyed the food! :)

Chef Pedro was great. Would definitely reccommend him to anyone I know travelling to Tulum.

Chef Pedro cooked five days of amazing dishes for our family of 24. He was a constant professional and was willing to make changes if necessary. It was truly a great experience every morning. We highly recommend his services.

Had a great meal tonight with Pedro! Absolutely delicious food and great company. Would suggest to anyone wanting a wonderful dinner.

Chef Pedro was amazing! The food was incredible and really reflected how much Chef Pedro puts his passion into his cooking. We were absolutely thrilled with the flavor and texture combinations he curated. My personal favorite was the “Corn Cake” (Cheese Cake infused with Corn) — absolutely the best desert I have ever had. We will definitely rebook this experience! My only regret is not being able to try all of his outstanding menus :)

Pedro cooked us a fabulous dinner! Whole experience was top notch! Private Feedback: Thank you Pedro! Delicious dinner!

Great all around! Food smelled so good to start with, Pedro was awesome and food was great.

Chef Pedro was amazing! He came prepared, was personable, cook a DELICIOUS meal, and cleaned up. I should also mention we had 1 person with food restrictions that he carefully catered to. I would absolutely book him again! Private Feedback: Chef Pedro, while I am sad that not everyone was able to enjoy your meal due to weather conditions, everyone raved about how wonderful it was! You were the highlight of the trip :)

This was such a great experience - we booked Pedro for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a bachelorette party and he did not disappoint! He was extremely accommodating for our vegetarian diet and helped curate the menu for our dietary restrictions, including gluten free options. Each meal was presented so nicely, and the quality of the ingredients and food was a highlight. Everything in the kitchen and dining area was cleaned after each meal and even leftover food was kept properly in the fridge. I highly recommend Pedro if you are thinking to book a private chef experience, this will always be a highlight of our trip!

Pedro was fabulous! We were two families of 4 celebrating NYE! He and Enrique were punctual, professional, flexible (we were late) and helpful. The menu was agreed upon and the execution was fabulous. Everything was very tasty! Clean up left the kitchen spotless. Couldn't recommend more!

Chef Pedro was great! Food was delicious, we had an excellent experience!

It was a great dinner experience. Thank you!

There’s no better way to end a vacation! Pedro was super professional with the perfect blend of being personable. Each menu is tailored to a special part of him/his journey in life, and that’s what makes food even more enjoyable. You can feel the love that he has for his craft in each bite. Any time I am in Mexico, without a doubt, he’ll be the first person I call!

Amazing experience, food was great, Chef Pedro was so accommodating

Pedro was super personable and professional. We really enjoyed our meal.

Pedro was fantastic and so were his assistants. Presentation was fantastic and the food tasted as good as it looked. He get everything right as described and left all the leftovers in nice containers. 100% would recommend
