Chef Marc Ozdemir Garnier

Private Chef in Cavalaire-sur-Mer

Following superb experience as a chef, acquired in the early 90s, as restaurant manager (5 years) in Niort (Deux-Sèvres region) and another with caterers in the “Paca Region” from 1995, I decided to create my own event catering. company since 2011.

Later, these same experiences would be reinforced by training as a cook in Aurillac.

I finally opted, as a signature or style, for fusion cuisine.

A great experience as a chef, on behalf of the French start-up “La Belle Assiette” brought me a lot at all levels.

I really like sourcing from all the local producers.

Rest assured that by entrusting the Chef with your private and professional events, you will have the ultimate assurance of a true culinary escapade.

I still continue to follow culinary training with the emeritus and multi-starred Chef, Mr. Régis Marcon, in the "Haute Loire" region, near Valence and Lyon mainly.

Now working for the startup Take A Chef, I have great meetings and experiences while pursuing my career as a chef throughout the French Côte d'Azur

For me, cooking is...

A real passion for others and all my guest!

I learned to cook at...

After the many formations at Régis Marcon Cooking School ( Saint Bonnet le Froid ), i followed my job on Luberon & French Riviera.

A cooking secret...

Chef Marc is a great professional! He was very flexible due a delay we had with the timing and the food was delightful! Very great experience, would recommend 100%

Chef Marc went out of the way to be nice to us. We were late getting back home on time and he waited patiently for us to come back.

Dinner was excellent, Chef Marc was on-time (actually early), and the food and presentation were both excellent. All of our guests were extremely pleased with the meal. My only small complaint would be to bring a helper when you are preparing for many guests. We had 14 people at a birthday dinner for a good friend that I hosted at a home that we rented for the occasion. Since my gift to my friend was his birthday dinner, I thought it was best for me to help serve since serving 14 people was too much for one person to serve by themselves. For 1,200 Euros, I would have thought he could bring someone to help him, so I wouldn’t have felt the need to help serve each course.

Chef Marc was incredible! He prepared local dishes for the amuse bouche and the rest of the meal was also delightful. He was very communicative before our family dinner and helped to make the planning process easy.

Chef Marc a été parfait. Il a bien compris nos attentes et nous a concocté un repas d'anniversaire magnifique. Je recommande ce chef.

Marc came and cooked the most fabulous birthday meal in our Air BnB, he arrived we went for a walk and then came back to a fabulous foodie feast with paired wine throughout. Would absolutely recommend ????????

Super repas organisé pour l’evjf de ma sœur. Nous avons très bien mangé, et Marc a su adapter le menu selon nos goûts et budget. Une fois sur place, l’enchaînement des plats s’est très bien déroulé, c’était délicieux et la cuisine était impeccable au départ du chef. Merci encore Marc !

Nous avons été régalé par le Chef. L’explication des plats était très claire. La cuisine nous a été rendu en parfait état.

Chef Marc was wonderful! We enjoyed his company and his food so much we wish we hired him for every night, not just our last night! We are returning to France next year and I will definitely hire again. To top it off a friend back in the states saw my posts and then hired Take a Chef for a party.

Very nice experience, dinner was tasty and Marc was really caring and attentive to details

Chef Marc was great! So easy to work with and communicate and organize through the website. He was receptive to all of our ideas and delivered!

Super !

Une très belle expérience culinaire et humaine avec un chef au top, à l'écoute et généreux. Je recommande vivement Chef Marc les yeux fermés

Chef Marc cooked and presented a very delicious meal! We were a group of 10 celebrating a 60th birthday and he did not disappoint. We talked back and forth regarding menu until I was happy with choices. He delivered it beautifully and also accompanied wine. I would highly suggest chef Marc!

Chef Marc was wonderful to work with. He is a great communicator and a very kind person. We ended up having to cancel our party at the last minute due to an illness, but we still wanted the food. He graciously changed plans and delivered everything in disposable containers. He even added an extra course for us to enjoy. He was so professional and attentive and we really enjoyed working with him.

We had an amazing night with Chef Marc, we had a super dinner and such a fun evening. What a treat to be looked after so well with a delicious meal, Marc also catered for our Vegan and Gluten free individuals in our party. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Marc for a fabulous experience.

Chef Marc was excellent in every regard! His food was wonderful and he used incredible produce from the region and plated everything beautifully! Our group of 5 used him for two of our dinners at our Airbnb and we were all very happy! He is also a wonderful human being! The whole experience from start to finish was perfect and I would highly recommend Chef Marc!

We loved Chef Marc! He was punctual, very organized and communicative. He served the food in a timely manner and he explained each dish to the table. The menu was nice and varied. The presentation was beautiful. The food looked great and tasted wonderful. Thank you Chef Marc!
