Responsible and refined cuisine

Because today's luxury goes hand in hand with sustainability, our private chefs adopt a respectful approach: reasoned portion management, anti-waste cooking, use of organic and seasonal ingredients.

The luxury of comfort and discretion

An attentive but discreet presence

The chef who lives with you becomes your personal chef during your stay: he is part of your environment without ever imposing himself. Present beside you, he remains discreet, professional, and attentive to your needs.

 

From the moment he arrives, he will make an initial assessment with you to provide a personalized service: your schedules, habits, and desires. It is a complete service, including the entire kitchen:

 

  • Product purchasing and storage
  • Live preparation, in your kitchen
  • Dressage and table service
  • Complete kitchen cleaning

You can therefore make the most of your stay, as if you were in a luxury hotel, but with the privacy of your own home and the pleasure of home-cooked meals, at your own pace.

An ideal service for top-of-the-range stays

Our full-time chefs often work in exceptional locations: villas in Provence, alpine chalets, holiday homes on the Côte d’Azur, private estates, or second homes. Saint-Tropez à Cannes, from Biarritz à Deauville, They bring that extra touch of soul that transforms a rental into an exceptional stay, where every table becomes a moment of sharing.

Winter season

Chef at a chalet: the ski season without having to be in the kitchen

At the resort, the days follow the rhythm of the slopes. Your head chef adapts to them: a hearty breakfast before the first chairlift, a taste-test on the way back, dinner served when the whole family has returned. You enjoy the chalet, forgetting about cooking worries: it takes care of everything else.

Meals that cram into your days

Early departure, lunch on the slopes or in the chalet, late return: the meal times follow your schedule, not the other way around.

The mountain in the plate

Cheese, charcuterie and products from the Alps, traditional shared dishes for cold evenings or refined menus for dinner with friends: you choose the atmosphere for each evening.

Book early for peak weeks

Christmas, New Year and the February holidays are the busiest weeks at the resort. To get the chef's choice, it's best to make your request in the fall.

Your boss, station by station

Each station has its own addresses, producers and chalets: discover our chefs on site.

Can a concierge or an agency book a chef to stay at a client's home?

Yes. Our booking form includes a section dedicated to concierge services and agencies: you fill in your client's name, dates and the needs of the stay, and we get back to you with a proposal.
