What You’ll Do

Savor delicious ocean-inspired dishes with Chef Yani.

Let Chef Yani transport you to the coast with a private chef experience that feels fresh and effortlessly refined. This thoughtfully curated menu is filled with ocean-inspired mains and a dessert that’s unexpected but worth every bite.

The experience begins with velvety hummus topped with chickpeas, roasted chile poblano and smoky chorizo. From there, enjoy garlic and lemon-kissed grilled prawns brushed with mildly spicy ancho butter, served alongside tender cod for a touch of seaside simplicity. For dessert, Chef Yani will whip up delicate black sesame and white chocolate cream choux for a delectable finish. Book your coastal dinner today.

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