I’m a luxury private yacht chef, and I create elevated dining on superyachts and charters across the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, and beyond. I plan and provision with a strong focus on fresh seafood, seamless service, and multi-course deckside dinners for 4–20 guests—plus consistent, energizing crew meals under sail.

My style blends my Bulgarian roots with international technique shaped by 10+ years cooking in 20+ countries, including 4 years as a private chef in Copenhagen and 2 dedicated years mastering yacht galleys. I’m used to compact spaces, fast-changing conditions, and high expectations—so every charter becomes a smooth culinary adventure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Bulgaria?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 624 DKK, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Japanese, Mediterranean and Chef's special. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Bachelor/Bachelorette and Friends gathering. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.
