Tuscany Private Chef
Tuscan flavors and local craft brought exclusively to you.
Private Dining, Rooted in Tuscany
Some of the best meals in Italy don’t happen in restaurants. They happen at home — around a table that slowly fills with food, wine, and conversation that lasts longer than planned.
Tuscany Private Chef brings this feeling into villas and private homes across Tuscany, creating meals meant to be shared and remembered.
Our cooking follows the seasons and local traditions, using ingredients sourced nearby and recipes passed down through generations — many inspired by the kitchens of our nonnas and dishes rarely found today.
Our journey began in our family kitchens and later took us into restaurants across Europe and the United States. But the cooking that stayed closest to us is the one we grew up with — food prepared at home, with patience, seasonal ingredients, and recipes passed from one generation to the next.
WHAT WE CARE ABOUT MOST ARE THE INGREDIENTS — THEIR QUALITY, FRESHNESS, AROMA, AND SEASONALITY — AND A TRULY ARTIsANAL APPROACH TO COOKING, WHERE PASTA, SAUCES, AND BREADS ARE MADE BY HAND.
THE dishes we serve come from family tables and from recipes
that are slowly disappearing.
Keeping them alive — and sharing them with others — is what inspires our cooking.

The Experience
Every gathering begins with the season.
The menu takes shape around what the land offers in that moment: vegetables from nearby gardens, olive oil pressed in the hills, cheeses made in small dairies. These ingredients set the rhythm of the table.
A long lunch in the open countryside.
Dinner outdoors, candles lit as the evening settles in.
We move naturally between kitchen and guests — cooking, serving, sharing small stories behind the dishes. Pasta rolled by hand. Sauces simmered slowly – the way they have been for generations.
The evening unfolds without hurry, just as it would in an Italian home.

Crafted with care from the land to the plate.
A culinary vision.
rooted in tuscany.
Our paths have crossed through restaurants, travels, and the kitchens where we’ve cooked side by side. From fine dining at international restaurants to private villas and yachts - every experience is going back to our traditions of Tuscany. Recipes remembered from the nonna, techniques preserved over generations, flavors drawn from the land itself. Each place has shaped the way we cook and host today.
What unites us is a shared belief in local ingredients, artisanal craft, and traditional recipes. Every step — from the producer to the table. Together we bring this spirit to you. We take care of the menu, the atmosphere, and the rhythm of the evening.
You simply take your seat and enjoy the moment.
