The experience · planned for 2027
A restaurant-style meal, in your own setting.
I’m preparing to relaunch my private chef service in 2027, bringing chef-designed set menus to homes in Albany, Denmark and Mount Barker. The idea is simple: a proper meal with people you enjoy, with the cooking given the attention it deserves.
I’m a professional chef and a lifelong coeliac, so gluten-free cooking is central to how I approach a menu. I want the food to feel like a dining experience in its own right, rather than a list of things you cannot eat. My chef background and food story explain where that approach comes from.
Every setting is different. We would discuss the menu, dietary needs and the kitchen before agreeing the details. Gluten-free ingredients are only part of the picture; equipment, preparation and cross-contact need attention too. I cannot promise an absolute allergen-free environment in somebody else’s kitchen.
A meal can give a special date a bit more room: time to sit, talk and enjoy the food together. The occasion helps shape the menu discussion without needing a complicated theme.
Small private gatherings
A dinner with family or friends, served in your own setting. Private dining is for a maximum of 12 guests. Practical requirements would be discussed before a service is agreed; no minimum guest number is advertised.
Special celebrations
Tell me what you are celebrating and how you would like the evening to feel. We can discuss whether the planned service and set-menu approach suit the gathering.
Chef-designed set menus
Four set menus. Coming soon.
Coming soon
A considered menu, without an endless list of choices.

What will be shared here
The 2027 menus and prices are still being prepared. You’ll find them here once they are ready. There are no menu PDFs to download or bookings to make here yet.
