Private Chef Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

I provide private chef services in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the surrounding areas, including Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Èze, and Cap d’Ail. Based locally on the eastern Côte d’Azur and I support private villas and established residences with discreet, in-home dining. I can offer consistent availability without the need for additional accommodation arrangements. I structure my service to support continuity, privacy, and the natural rhythm of daily household life

Your Chef

Supporting Extended Stays & Residential Living

My work in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat is typically centred around extended placements rather than short-term event catering. Therefore, I support families and residents who require structured chef services for several weeks, months, or full seasonal stays.

Services may include:

• Daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner preparation
• Ongoing seasonal menu planning
• Ingredient sourcing from trusted local suppliers
• Full kitchen organisation and daily reset
• Coordination with domestic or estate staff

As a result, dining becomes part of the natural rhythm of the residence rather than a standalone service.

Seasonal Mediterranean Cuisine for Riviera Living

My cooking reflects the Côte d’Azur lifestyle, focusing on light, seasonal, produce-driven Mediterranean cuisine. However, I adapt fully to individual dietary requirements and personal preferences. Rather than formal restaurant-style dining every evening, I create refined, balanced meals suited to daily residential living. Over time, menus evolve naturally alongside the seasons, ensuring variety without unnecessary complexity.

Discreet & Professional Integration

I manage provisioning, preparation, and kitchen organisation independently while maintaining clear communication with household teams where required. Consequently, your residence runs smoothly, and I keep dining structured, reliable, and discreet. In addition to Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, I also provide private chef services in: • Beaulieu-sur-Mer • Èze • Cap d’Ail Therefore, if you are planning an extended stay in this region and require a private chef, I would be pleased to discuss your requirements in confidence.

"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."
