Private Chef Cannes | Matt Brice

I provide private chef services in Cannes and Super Cannes, supporting villa guests and seasonal residents with discreet, in-residence dining. Based in Nice, I regularly work in and around Cannes, delivering consistent, high-quality meals tailored to your stay. Whether you are visiting for several weeks or settling into a longer summer residence, my service integrates seamlessly into your villa, allowing you to relax while dining is professionally managed.

Extended Villa Stays & Seasonal Placements

Many of my clients require structured chef support for two weeks, one month, or the full summer season. I therefore structure my service around continuity rather than one-off event dining.

Support typically includes:

• Daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner service
• Flexible menu planning throughout your stay
• Seasonal Mediterranean inspired cuisine tailored to your preferences
• Ongoing ingredient sourcing and provisioning
• Full kitchen organisation and daily reset

As a result, this approach ensures consistency, particularly during longer stays.

Refined Mediterranean Dining for Villa Living

My cooking reflects the Riviera lifestyle. I focus on light, seasonal, produce-driven cuisine while remaining adaptable to dietary requirements and preferences. Rather than formal restaurant-style dining at every meal, I create balanced, refined meals suited to daily villa living. As the summer progresses, menus evolve naturally to reflect seasonal availability and the rhythm of your stay.

Discreet Service for Private Villas

Working within private villas in Cannes requires professionalism and discretion. I manage menu design, sourcing, preparation, and kitchen organisation independently, and I also coordinate smoothly with household staff and concierge teams where required. As an English-speaking private chef, I have supported international families working alongside established staff while maintaining clear communication and consistent service standards. For this reason, your villa dining remains structured, reliable, and fully integrated into your daily routine. Accordingly, if you are planning an extended stay in Cannes or Super-Cannes and require a private villa chef, I would be pleased to discuss your dates and service requirements.

"Matthew looks at cooking as an art and he is a very accomplished artist and adapted well to all kinds of allergy/dietary request in short notices. I can honestly tell you that you cannot find a better chef than Matthew."

Lyn
"Matt is a kind, hard working chef, with a dedication to his food passion. He also has a calmness that is very nice to see in a chef of his standard."

Janie
"I have to thank you so very much for your amazing food on Saturday evening. Right from our first initial chat, you were organised, calm and completely in control. Everyone has commented on the food and your organisational skills on Saturday evening. You made the evening so completely stress free for Antony and I."

Jane
"Highest possible recommendation for Chef Matt. I have celiac disease, which can make meal time stressful — even the smallest gluten exposure sets my health back for weeks. But with Chef Matt I was worry-free."

Domonique
"Absolute super star chef. Matt cooked 8 delicious meals for 7 adults and 8 children over a 5 day period at our villa in Vence. Matt procured delicious local meat, fish and seafood which he served with Ottolenghi style salads with a good selection of starters and desserts."

Tim
"Matt’s culinary skills far surpassed anything we expected. He created an exceptional dining experience and made our time truly memorable."
