Private chef in Chianti

Tuscan cooking in a Chianti farmhouse

Chianti is a land of olive oil, wine and home cooking: unsalted Tuscan bread, beans, grilled meat and vegetables from the garden. The chef proposes a traditional Tuscan menu or something more creative, always starting from local produce and your tastes.

• Tuscan crostini and cinta senese cured meats
• ribollita, pappa al pomodoro, panzanella in summer
• hand-rolled pici and pappardelle
• bistecca alla fiorentina and roasts
• cantucci with vin santo

A chef at the villa for the week

Many people choose Chianti for a week in a farmhouse with friends or family: the chef can come for some meals or all of them, breakfast included. Choose the holiday service in the request and add dates, guests and meals.

For holidays the indicative bands are €32-48, €48-72 and €72-88 per person per meal, with ingredients charged separately. Drinks are excluded: the separate sommelier service suggests pairings with Chianti Classico and other local wines.

Seasons and notice

Farmhouse season runs from spring to autumn, with the grape harvest in September and October and the new olive oil in November. The minimum is 6 days ahead; for summer, groups and stays of several days, 2-3 weeks ahead is better.

Gravel roads and isolated houses are common: give the town and directions in the request. Coverage is checked for each request.
