What to expect from your private chef experience

Picture this: trulli courtyards, masseria terraces under centuries-old olive trees, rooftop dinners with sea views, whitewashed patios lit by lanterns, and a private chef dedicated entirely to your group. Your experience near Martina Franca unfolds over 3-4 hours. The chef arrives early to set up, and you're free to watch, ask questions, or simply relax.

Local wines — perhaps a glass of Primitivo di Manduria or Verdeca — complement each course. The entire service is included: grocery shopping, cooking, table setting, serving, and cleaning.
