Private Masterclass with a Michelin-Star Chef

What Makes These Sessions Unique

When a Michelin starred chef steps into a private kitchen, the atmosphere changes. There is an immediate sense of theatre, precision and pride, but it is tempered by something softer -- a quiet generosity. The very best chefs do not simply demonstrate, they share. A masterclass becomes a story, a philosophy, a conversation built on flavour. The detail in how they hold a blade, layer textures or choose oils can redefine the way you cook forever.

Perfect for Celebrations or Gifts

Private masterclasses are increasingly popular among clients seeking unique gifts, team incentives or luxury event moments. They suit intimate settings beautifully -- a dinner party with live preparation, a milestone birthday with interactive tastings, or even a high-end experience for a partner who adores gastronomy. Each class is personalised in advance, ensuring ingredients, format and location are fully tailored to the client's lifestyle. Whether in Mayfair, Monaco or Marbella, the experience travels with elegance and ease.

Your Choice of World-Class Chefs

The roster of Michelin star chefs available for private hire in 2025 is exceptional. From household names who hold three stars, to rising innovators with cult reputations, the breadth of talent allows for true personal alignment. Some chefs focus on classic French technique, others on progressive plant-based cuisine, fire-led Argentinian methods or Japanese minimalism. This range gives each masterclass its own distinct tone, and for those with specific dietary requirements or themes, bespoke formats can be designed in advance.

Behind the Scenes of the Experience

For high-net-worth individuals who value privacy, discretion and premium logistics, the entire process is handled with care. Each chef is supported by a dedicated team who will coordinate ingredient sourcing, kitchen suitability, assistant chefs if required, and the flow of the event. A sommelier or mixologist can be added, as can branded elements for corporate engagements or gifting. Sessions often begin with relaxed introductions, followed by immersive preparation, and end with a seated, restaurant-standard meal. Many clients say the true highlight is simply being able to ask questions -- and get answers -- from one of the world's most refined culinary minds.

Not Just Learning, But Remembering

What sets these sessions apart is the personal memory they create. A dish prepared with a Michelin star chef becomes more than a recipe -- it becomes a marker in time, a shared experience of joy and precision. Guests often keep signed menus, recipe books or personalised utensils from the event, and many go on to develop longer culinary journeys -- visiting the chef's restaurant, arranging return experiences, or even designing their own at-home tasting menus. For clients who appreciate timeless, tasteful luxury, few experiences compare.
