I create refined Italian dining experiences rooted in love, simplicity, and seasonal quality.

I was born in Italy and began my career in the northeastern region before permanently relocating to Melbourne in 2016. Today I primarily work in Melbourne and Adelaide, and I’m available to organize special events across Australia.

My passion for food started at a young age. Growing up outside a major city helped me connect deeply with the land and fully embrace the roots of Northern Italian cuisine—always aiming for a memorable experience built on balance, care, and ingredient-led flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Australia?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 224.50 AUD, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialise in?

I cook Italian, Mediterranean, Local, Chef's special, Seafood/Fish and Fusion. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavour is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in Australia?

To book me in Australia, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Family reunion, Bachelor/Bachelorette, Friends gathering, Romantic night and Corporate. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
