Milestone birthday
Give the evening a clear sense of occasion with a menu made for the person being celebrated.
A private chef for a birthday dinner
Host the birthday. Leave the kitchen to David.
I plan birthday dinners around the guest of honor, the room, and the people gathering, whether the evening calls for plated courses, a shared table, or something more relaxed.
- Menus shaped around the guest of honor
- Plated or shared service considered
- Suitable homes and small event spaces
- Most gatherings up to approximately 30 guests
Designed around your gathering
Host the experience without running the kitchen.
David reviews the property, timing, guest mix, dietary needs, and service style before confirming fit, menu direction, or pricing.

Client feedback
Food worth gathering for.
Every event begins with a direct conversation about the people, place, and occasion.
“David catered our anniversary dinner and honestly the steak was better than any restaurant we've been to. He made the whole night feel special without being stuffy. Already booked him for my mom's birthday”
“dude the pasta he made for my gfs birthday was insane. she cried. legit cried. 10/10 would hire again no question”
“hired him for a small dinner party. food was fire. portions were huge. my buddies kept asking where i found this guy. told em davids kitchen. thats it”

The right format depends on the person and the room.
A lively shared table, a paced tasting menu, and a relaxed buffet create very different birthdays. David reviews the guest mix, kitchen, timing, dietary needs, and desired energy before recommending a direction.
Before you inquire
Useful answers for a better first plan.
Can you plan a surprise birthday?
Yes, when access, timing, contact details, and the property plan can be handled discreetly and safely.
Can service be family style?
Yes. Shared and plated formats can both be considered based on the menu, room, guest count, and staffing plan.
Can guests have different dietary needs?
List every allergy and restriction. David will discuss what can reasonably be accommodated but cannot guarantee an allergen free environment.
How do I start?
Check availability and share the date, town, guest count, occasion, kitchen, and private budget band. David reviews every completed brief.
