WHY YOU NEED A PRIVATE CHEF We know you love celebrating the good times with friends and family just as much as we do. That's why we are here to help put the wow factor in your next at home event. Imagine having a dedicated Chef craft your perfect dinner party menu, source the best local ingredients, deliver the dishes to your table, and best of all, do the dishes afterwards! All the extravagance of dining out, in the comfort of your kitchen. The Sunshine Coast has so much to offer, with abundant oceans and farms rich with home grown produce. The mission; to create dishes that showcase the sensational produce of the Sunshine Coast. Ingredients are sourced directly from the supplier, with seasonal menus reflecting the freshest flavours of the moment. ​Simple, elegant, delicious. Alan's passion for great food started at the young age of 16, when he moved to France to work in Michelin Star Restaurants and learn the secrets of great French Cuisine. His career in the UK saw him work throughout multiple award winning restaurants and under such Chefs as Marco Pierre White. Alan moved to Australia in 2013 to work at Homage restaurant in Grandchester where his love for Australian Produce began. Focusing on Farm to Fork dishes, the restaurant won several accolades and its first ever Chef Hat. Alan's experience at great Australian restaurants includes 2 Hat NuNu's in Palm Cove, and 1 Hat Tarrawarra in the Yarra Valley. Alan spent 2 years running The Stables at Stones in the Yarra Valley, delivering seasonal degustation menus using only the best of the region's ingredients. Alan then went to work at The Long Apron restaurant on the Sunshine Coast as Sous Chef under Chris Hagan for two years where he has perfected the combination of traditional French cuisine and great Australian produce. Alan now focuses on bringing fine dining experiences to the comfort of your home, delivering elegant dishes which are both unpretentious and delicious without ever leaving your kitchen.
