Private chef on the Costa Smeralda and in Porto Cervo
On the Costa Smeralda the summer is lived between the villa and the boat, with a sea that looks almost unreal. The days are long, dinner starts late, and no one wants to leave their own terrace to queue at a restaurant. Bringing the kitchen to you is our part.
We look after dinners in the villas between Porto Cervo and Porto Rotondo and on board the yachts at the marina. We come from Florence as a destination service, with our chef, and organise everything beforehand, travel included.
We work bespoke, for a dinner for two by the sea or a party in a villa.
Dinners in the villa and on board
In summer the cooking here is light and of the sea: raw fish, grilled fish, vegetables, all made for warm evenings and the open air. We lay the table on the villa terraces or on the yacht decks, and adapt to the galley when we cook on board. The service stays discreet, you stay with your guests.
A service that comes for the summer
The Costa Smeralda is a seasonal destination, and we come to it by organising ahead: the venue, the shopping on the spot, the logistics, the timing. The travel is set out clearly in the quote. Then the chef arrives, cooks, serves and leaves everything in order, and what stays with you is the summer.
Where we work
We work in Porto Cervo and Porto Rotondo, at Cala di Volpe, Romazzino, Baja Sardinia and along the Costa Smeralda, in the villas and on the yachts. On request we also travel to the nearby coast.
A private chef in Costa Smeralda
We do not have a fixed kitchen in Sardinia: we come for your date, with travel agreed in the quote, and bring to Costa Smeralda the same service we provide in Tuscany. It starts with an email: you tell us how many guests, the date and the evening you have in mind, and we build a tailored menu.
On the chosen day the chef arrives at the villa or on board with everything needed, cooks live and looks after the service, then clears up. From Porto Cervo to Porto Rotondo, from Romazzino to Cala di Volpe, we reach the villas and the yachts at anchor.
The sea of Costa Smeralda on the plate
Here luxury is simple: a perfect fish, just out of the water, and a few right ingredients. We build the dinner on the local catch, from lobster to bottarga, from crudo to seafood pasta, with the island's vegetables and the Vermentino di Gallura in the glass.
No menu the same for everyone: we choose it with you, by the season and your taste, because a dinner in Costa Smeralda should live up to the place, without overdoing it.
A sample menu in Costa Smeralda
Every dinner is tailored: this is just an example, and it starts from the island's catch.
- Starter: seafood crudo and lobster, bottarga
- First course: fregola with clams or spaghetti with sea urchins
- Main: grilled catch of the day
- Dessert: seadas or a dessert made on the spot
