We are clean, tidy, professional and discreet.
Bowral Private Chef
Bowral Private Chef has been a long time in the making.
But after many years of traveling and working in the Southern Highlands we have found a home in the beautiful village of Bundanoon.
The climates of the Southern Highlands are all about food, with wonderful produce straight from the farmers markets, fab wines, beautiful gardens and cosy fires in the winter. Our menus are the very reflection of this.
With four wonderful seasons to enjoy, hearty and rich braises and stews in the winter by the fire to simple farm fresh peaches and blackberries in the summer. Our Bowral menus display what is best of season and best of the local producers and suppliers.
TerrigalPrivateChef
Terrigal is fast becoming one of the most vibrant and exciting areas in New South Wales.
The Central Coast of NSW is a beautiful location over flowing with amazing food experiences. I have spent many years living and working on the Central Coast in such restaurants as Bells at Kilcare, Pretty Beach House and Cafe de la Gallerie, and as such have built up network of suppliers, chefs and experiences.

The Hunter Wine Country has a special place in my heart.
I first visited the Hunter Valley in 1990 and was instantly taken with the country air and the beautiful scenery. Since then the Vally has changed but one thing is certain the food and wine scene has taken off.
I still remember a bottle of 1983 Lindeman’s Hunter River Burgundy at Roberts Restaurant in 1991, the beautiful accommodation at the Convent, and more recently the amazing local food at Muse and it’s sister restaurant Muse Kitchen, as well as Bistro Molines and the Cottage at Mount View. The scenery and climate along with passionate locals produce an area that is tailor made for wonderful food and wine, open fires and of course beautiful wines.
Hunter Valley Private Chef has catered for many differing clients, locals and visitors, from in home dining to catering events in one of the many stunning local homes and accomodation in the area. We service all areas across the Hunter from Pokolbin, Maitland, Cessnock to Newcastle City and all across the region.
