Knightsbridge · Private Chef

International households.
A standard
that does not compromise.

Bespoke private dining for Knightsbridge's most considered homes, from intimate dinners in trophy apartments off Brompton Road to canapé receptions in the great lateral flats of Pont Street. The same impeccable standard, every time you are in residence.

Knightsbridge is one of the most
international neighbourhoods in London.

The large lateral flats between Harrods and the Natural History Museum, the elegant mansion blocks off Pont Street, the private residences that overlook Hyde Park, these are homes that belong to people who divide their time between London and elsewhere, and who expect their London residence to run to exactly the same standard as everything else.

For many Knightsbridge households, a private chef is not an occasional luxury, it is part of how the home functions. Visiting family from abroad, business guests from the Gulf or the Americas, intimate dinners before a night at the opera: the occasions are various, but the expectation is constant. The food should be extraordinary. The service should feel as though nothing was arranged at all.

Andrés has worked extensively with international households of exactly this kind. He is fluent in adapting menus and service style to the specific cultural context of the guests, not as a gesture towards accommodation, but as a genuine reflection of how each occasion should feel. His presence in your home is quiet and precise. The food speaks for itself.
