A visual snapshot of the delicious dishes prepared by private chef Salim Drouiche.
One of the greatest privileges of being a private chef is the personal connection I share with my clients. In every dish, there's a story-rooted in simplicity, shaped by passion, and presented with precision.
Private dining allows me the freedom to cook with creativity and purpose, tailoring each experience to the people l'm serving. It's a chance to create something meaningful-and to see the joy in every bite.
The gallery below offers a glimpse into some of the dishes l've created for our private dining guests over the years-each one a reflection of flavour, finesse, and connection.

These menus are designed for warm-weather occasions, al fresco dining, and long, leisurely meals with friends or family. From colourful mezze-style starters and delicate sashimi to fragrant broths, grilled seafood, and refreshing citrus-spiced salads, every plate is layered with depth and creativity.
This is dining that awakens the senses-light yet satisfying, bold yet refined. A culinary experience your guests will remember long after the final bite.
This is where my story begins. These dishes are more than food-they're memories, traditions, and moments passed down through generations.
Rooted in my Algerian heritage, these North African creations are inspired by the flavours I grew up with: warm spices, slow-cooked stews, fire-grilled meats, fragrant couscous, and vibrant, herb-filled salads. Many of the recipes come directly from my family-carefully handed down, preserved with love, and now reimagined through the lens of refined private dining.
Preparing this food is deeply personal-it connects me to my roots and allows me to share part of my journey with you. Whether it's a family-style feast or a modern interpretation, each plate is crafted with heart, intention, and respect for the culture that shaped me.
It's more than a menu-it's a tribute to where it all began.
Our approach to private dining begins with the seasons. We believe the best ingredients are those grown in their natural rhythm-picked at their peak, full of flavour, and rich in nutrients.
Each dish is a celebration of what nature offers at that moment-bright greens in spring, vibrant berries and golden stone fruits in summer, earthy tones of autumn root vegetables, and rich, warming flavours in winter. The colours on the plate echo the season outside your window, bringing harmony between the food, the setting, and the experience.
By designing menus around the freshest seasonal produce, we not only elevate taste and texture, but also ensure each meal is nourishing, balanced, and beautifully in tune with the time of year.
Every menu is tailored to your preferences, dietary needs, and the occasion-resulting in a refined dining experience that's as vibrant and satisfying as the season itself.
Behind every memorable dish is an even more memorable guest.
