What to expect from your private chef experience
A private dining experience in Vasto unfolds at your own pace, in the comfort of your chosen accommodation. Your experience begins when your chef arrives at your accommodation with the day's finest ingredients from Abruzzo's local markets and producers. After a welcome drink and a chat about your preferences, the magic starts. Imagine mountain lodge terraces, seaside villa gardens, countryside retreats among olive groves — while your chef prepares a bespoke multi-course menu. You might start with a light appetizer, move through handmade pasta like pallotte cace e ove, enjoy a main such as maccheroni alla chitarra, and finish with scrippelle 'mbusse. Each course is paired with wines like Trebbiano d'Abruzzo or Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo. Your chef handles everything: cooking, plating, serving, and a spotless kitchen at the end. In Vasto, every private chef experience is as unique as the location itself — no two evenings are ever the same. The ingredients your chef brings to Vasto are often sourced that same morning, ensuring maximum freshness and flavor.
