Private Chef Dinners · Fairfield & New London Counties

Dinner as the chef intended, at your table.

Multi-course, seafood-forward dinners cooked and served in your home by Chef Owen O’Shea.

The Experience

A private chef dinner turns your dining room into the restaurant you wish you could book. Chef Owen handles the shopping, prep, cooking, plating and cleanup, while you focus on your guests.

Menus follow the seasons and lean toward the sea, with beautiful produce, dry-aged steak and house-made desserts. Every course is paced to your evening, with printed menu cards available for special occasions.

Chef Owen draws on years in demanding kitchens, including Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen at Foxwoods and The Shipwright’s Daughter in Mystic, to bring true restaurant technique to your table.
