I bring Sardinian soul and modern craft to your table.

My name is Claudia, I’m based in Sardinia, and I’ve worked in hospitality since I was 17. I built my experience step by step—starting in small local restaurants with international menus, continuing in traditional trattorias where I learned regional cooking (both Sardinian and Tuscan), and eventually working in a Michelin-starred gourmet kitchen.

I’m always looking for new ideas and intense, meaningful experiences, and I put that curiosity into every menu I design—balancing comfort, tradition, and a refined touch.

Cooking is my passion and my creative outlet—my way to express who I am.

I cook with creativity, technique, and respect for what’s on the plate.

I cook to express myself

Cooking is my passion and a space where I let my creativity breathe—I use each course to express my style, my energy, and my love for honest flavors.

I’ve learned through family and real kitchens

I first learned to cook in my family when I was little, then I deepened my training in culinary school and through years of hands-on work across very different restaurants, from simple trattorias to Michelin-starred fine dining.

I let ingredients lead the experience

I focus on quality and deep respect for the ingredients, choosing mostly local, zero-kilometer products. I also use different cooking techniques to bring out the very best in every ingredient.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Canada?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 74 EUR, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Chef's special, Mediterranean, Local, Seafood/Fish and Fusion. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in Canada?

To book me in Canada, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Family reunion and Friends gathering. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
