PRIVATE DINING · FROM 2 TO 8 GUESTS
Private DiningOne chef. One table. Yours.
A Michelin-starred chef. One table. From 2 to 8 guests.
Some experiences need no restaurant.
Felix Lo Basso personally brings his cuisine to the place you have chosen and creates a private dining experience around you.
A home. A villa. A chalet. A private residence. A special venue.
A small gathering, with an entire evening devoted to them.
You do not go to Felix. Felix comes to you.
THE EXPERIENCE
Fine dining, in an entirely private setting.
Having Felix Lo Basso in your kitchen means more than entrusting a chef with dinner.
It means bringing to your table the experience of over thirty years in fine dining, through restaurants recognised by the Michelin Guide, different kitchens and a career devoted to culinary research.
Felix brings his selection of ingredients, the composition of the menu, the technique, the preparation, the dish and, above all, a connection with those at the table.
In a restaurant, the chef cooks for a dining room. Here, for one evening, Felix cooks for you.
From 2 to 8 guests
A deliberate choice
A small number of guests is not a limitation. It is what makes the experience possible.
With 2 to a maximum of 8 people, Felix can personally oversee every stage of the evening and give the cooking and his guests a level of attention that is difficult to replicate in a traditional restaurant.
There is no distance between kitchen and table. No full dining room. No dozens of orders arriving at once.
There is only one table. Yours.
THE MENU
Every table is one of a kind.
Every experience begins with a conversation: who the guests are, what the occasion is, where dinner will take place, their tastes, preferences and anything that should be avoided.
From there, the menu takes shape. Felix creates a culinary journey in keeping with the season, the availability of the finest ingredients and the identity of his cuisine.
That is why there is no catalogue of menus to choose from. A private dinner in a villa in summer may tell a different story from a winter evening in a chalet. An anniversary may call for a different rhythm from dinner with friends.
Every table is one of a kind.
THE CONNECTION WITH THE CHEF
The distance falls away. The experience remains.
A direct connection with guests is nothing new in Felix Lo Basso’s cuisine. Over the years, his projects have brought the table progressively closer to the kitchen, making the relationship between chef and diner an essential part of the experience.
Private Dining takes this idea further still. The kitchen enters the guests’ own space. Felix prepares, tells stories and shares. A technique can be explained. An ingredient can become the starting point for a conversation. A dish can be served with the story of why it was created in precisely that way.
Fine dining loses its distance. The experience remains.
THE SETTING
Your home becomes the restaurant.
There is no need to recreate a restaurant dining room. Quite the opposite.
The appeal of Private Dining lies in experiencing a Michelin-starred chef’s cuisine while retaining the intimacy of your own space: a home, villa, chalet, private residence or a venue chosen for a special occasion.
Felix also shapes the experience around the setting in which he will cook. The place is more than the space where dinner is served: it is part of the evening.
