A French chef for private dinner

$350

Port Melbourne VIC, Australia

24th Sep 2025

Hello! I’m looking for a French (or French-trained) chef to come to my penthouse and cook a special dinner for my husband and me. We’ve just moved out, so there are no pots or cooking equipment on site — but I’ll bring a full dinner set, glasses, and everything for serving. The apartment overlooks the city and has the most gorgeous view. This will be my surprise gift for our 3-year wedding anniversary, so good vibes and positive energy are a must. We’d love a 3–5 course French menu, and we’ll be sitting at the bench with a bottle of wine, chatting and watching you cook while the magic unfolds. 🥰
