About this experience

Private Chef in Pantaleria is a bespoke dining service on the Sicilian island of Pantelleria, where a professional chef prepares meals in your holiday villa or chosen outdoor setting. The service focuses on local ingredients, including capers, wild herbs, and freshly caught seafood, cooked according to your preferences. Each booking includes a personalised menu, shopping of provisions, and full kitchen service, leaving you free to relax and enjoy the meal.

What to expect

The chef arrives at your accommodation with all ingredients, cookware, and serving equipment, and handles setup, cooking, and clearing for a typical 3- to 4-hour session.
Menus are built around daily catches from Pantelleria's ports and island-grown produce, with options for vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free diets confirmed before arrival.
You watch the chef prepare each course in your kitchen or on an outdoor terrace, with explanations of local cooking techniques such as slow-cooking in volcanic stone ovens.
The meal includes a multi-course format, from antipasti with capers and ricotta to a main dish and dessert, with wine pairings from local vineyards like the sweet Moscato di Pantelleria.
Suitable for couples, families, or small groups of up to 12 guests, with the service lasting from lunchtime to late evening depending on your chosen start time.
The chef brings a portable grill and gas burner for outdoor cooking, allowing for a beachside or terraced dinner with views of the Mediterranean, weather permitting.
