I would like to thank you again for the professional handling; it was a perfect evening.Menü:Flavours of the island-4 personas-Madeira, Portugal-22 Dec 2025 -Chefkoch : Duarte Oliveira

Awesome chef, and great stories.

We loved it! Communication before arrival, food and stories about the island was great!

My husband and I traveled to Madiera for our honeymoon and wanted to do something special so we hired a private chef. We matched with Chef Duarte Oliveria. He was everything we could have imagined and more! From the first emails to the final meals, he was absolutely incredible. He is very detailed when it comes to his menu/food and also the history that comes along with it. Not only were we able to eat 3 days worth of amazing meals, we also learned so much about food and the Island. He gave us many local recommendations and many tips and tricks to take home with us. The 3 nights we were able to spend with Chef Duarte Oliveria were our favourite nights. He is an amazing chef and you can taste the love and passion in his food. We were so honored to be able to sit down and talk with him, learn from him, and eat his perfectly delicious meals. If you are in Madeira and are looking to hire a private chef, do not hesitate when it comes to Chef Duarte Olivieria. He will not disappoint. 10/10. We hope to see him again in the future! Ciara & Connor

Chef Duarte was great to work with from the start to the end. He was able to assist us in having a Birthday cake made. The menu for both of our nights featured local dishes and ingredients and were well presented and very flavorful. Our entire party enjoyed him and his food and we would book him again!

Le chef Oliveira Duarte est très professionnel et passionné. Il nous a littéralement régalé, ses plat étaient délicieux, je recommande ses services les yeux fermés !!

Chef Duarte Oliveira presented our family ( 8 adults, 5 children) with an unforgettable culinary experience. It was AMAZING. He came promptly and was prepared to work ! Be worked diligently to cook a variety of Portuguese dishes for the adults and the kids. He explained each dish and included cultural information and stories that added to the enjoyment of the food. He also brought wine for pairings which was very educational. Chef Duarte is a kind and engaging person and this made the evening fun, a true celebration! We would highly recommend Chef Duarte as his food was incredible and his overall manner was enjoyable, professional and fun! Thank you, Chef Duarte !!

Chef Duarte not only created a delicious meal, but a wonderful experience for our group. He was easy to work with from start to finish— a true professional. We highly recommend him.

O Chef foi super simpático . Correu tudo como queríamos. Recomendo

We had an amazing meal provided by Chef Duarte, and highly recommend him to all! All of the food was incredible in his Taste of Madeira menu, and he also provided a wealth of information about the island’s history and evolution. We would absolutely book Chef Duarte again next time we visit Madeira.

Chef Duarte Oliveira was more than a chef. He was personable, knowledgeable and set a beautiful environment for our dinner. His knowledge and use of the local ingredients gave us an authentic experience of Madeira. The food was amazing!

Such an amazing meal! Chef Duarte was a pleasure to have and so attentive and flexible with menu. We were all blown away by how good the food and service was.

Chef Durante was simply amazing! Was a great experience to enhance our trip.

Duarte is an incredible chef. Strongly recommended! This evening was the best decision ever. We chose the barbecue menu, and it was absolutely delicious. The starters were all home made and so good, the barbecue was excellent, and the dessert (chocolate lava cake) a dream come true. Duarte told us so much about the island, the food, spices, local culture and history - it was not just a culinary delight, it was also wonderful to meet Duarte and learn about everything we wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. The service was outstanding, the quality of the food, the wine selection, the attention to detail, and all the personal nuances created an incredibly special evening we will never forget. Duarte and his lovely colleague Paula created a real treat for us. They were on time, everything was absolutely perfect, the kitchen was ultra clean and spotless afterwards. We will certainly come back to Madeira, and we will certainly plan another evening with Duarte!

Chef Duarte was not only incredibly talented but also wonderfully personable and entertaining. With genuine passion, he explained each dish and its ingredients, making the evening both delicious and educational. The food was absolutely incredible - flavorful, beautifully presented, and expertly crafted. It truly made the event extra special, I highly recommend him.

We were hoping to get a taste of Portuguese and Madeiran cuisine and Duarte shared so many incredible local dishes and flavors. Our family group had Duarte cook for three nights on our trip and we couldn't have been happier with his service. The food was extraordinary, but Duarte himself was just such a great person to speak to and learn from. He served one multi-course meal and two family style meals. Each was unique and incredibly delicious. I can't remember what it was called, but there was an app he served with a creamy sauce in a bread bowl that was the highlight dish of the trip. One thing to mention is the portions are fairly large, even by American standards so prepare to eat! All in all, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Duarte to anyone looking for a private chef in Madeira, especially if they are interested in trying the best of the local cuisine.

We had a wonderful birthday dinner celebration with Chef Duarte. He was very engaging, charming, and funny, giving us lots of stories and information about his food and Madeira. His pride in Madeira , his work and Takeachef was evident. All along he was easy and prompt to communicate with, as was teacher in general. He and his assistant madethe entire experience magical, !!

Chef Duarte provided us with an incredible meal and evening. He arrived right on time and was very flexible, he even cooked up some fresh fish that we had caught. Every course was incredibly tasty and with generous portions, he even made different dishes for a vegetarian in the group. We was a fountain of knowledge about the island & gastronomy. They left without a trace, the kitchen was cleaner than when they arrived. Would definitely do again!

Entire evening was wonderful the attention to detail was amazing, from dressing the table to the clean up. Excellent presentation and all the food was delicious. Chef Duarte was very engaging and informative on Madeira history and food traditions. Arranging the booking and communication was seamless and incredibly easy. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants a fantastic dining experience in the comfort of their home, our Airbnb like ourselves.

Duarte was amazing. Pleasant and enjoyable to chat with and the food was amazing!
