Private Chef - Tuscan Farmhouse Fare

A hearty and rustic menu of dishes inspired by the Tuscany region of Italy.

Let Chef Charles treat you to a Tuscan farmhouse dinner made of fresh ingredients sourced from the chef's garden. Because the Northern California climate is so similar to Tuscany's, you'll be treated to an authentic Tuscan dining experience. Begin with a peppery arugula salad with strawberries and a tangy orange vinaigrette, followed by roasted zucchini with a bright mint-chili vinaigrette. For the main course, enjoy handmade pappardelle pasta with hearty bolognese sauce made using the chef's family recipe. Dessert is a simple, yet delicious panna cotta with a berry compote.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to accompany the menu, and may request pairing recommendations from the chef upon booking.

We had a great time and can’t wait to book with Chef Charles again. Charles’s approach was very informative. We learned a lot about how to sear meat and cook on high heat; for example holding the pan at an angle away from you as you place the meat. Chef Charles made everything so easy and the food was the best. He is also a very interesting person and loved his stories as a chef. Can’t wait to work together again!
