What You’ll Do

Experience the essence of Italy with this refined, multi-course meal crafted by a top chef.

Savor an unforgettable private chef experience drawing inspiration from Italian culinary heritage. Each course is thoughtfully curated to highlight fresh, authentic flavors that transport you to the heart of Tuscany.

Start with an appetizer of creamy Burrata paired with prosciutto and sundried tomatoes, enhanced by wild baby arugula and a rich balsamic reduction. A side of focaccia bread with extra virgin olive oil adds a perfect touch. The star of the meal is a delicately crafted lasagna with layers of lemon ricotta, spinach, chicken Bolognese and melted mozzarella. For dessert, indulge in a lemon olive oil cake topped with macerated berries and creamy vanilla gelato.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to accompany the menu, and may request pairing recommendations from the chef upon booking.

Wow! I booked Chef Ryan as a birthday gift for my brother and I’m so glad I did! Chef Ryan did not only create a fantastic meal, but he was also engaging and made an incredible experience. Highly recommend him for any gathering and he made an incredible experience. Highly recommend him the food was delicious and the service was top-tier. My brother won’t stop talking about how perfect the gift was. Thank you, Chef Ryan!

Ryan was exactly what I was hoping for to celebrate my wife’s birthday. He was very friendly, allowed us to watch him work and ask questions along the way. Food was delicious. Stay in for the night and Ryan will deliver. Look forward to having more of his wonderful food. Thank you Ryan.

My husband and I hired Chef Ryan to create a special dinner for two. Chef Ryan was friendly, engaging, knowledgeable, experience and an amazing cook. We had an Italian dinner that was the best Italian food that we ever had. His presentation of the food was incredible. It was one of the best experiences and we plan to hire him again. Can you imagine how lucky his wife is to have a husband that is an amazing cook! Thank you, Chef Ryan!
