Gastronomic dinners at your home in Dubai
I am Chef François Savin. For a birthday, a dinner with friends or a business evening, I cook the cuisine of Provence in your villa, apartment or yacht in Dubai, and my maître d’hôtel serves at the table.
One evening, everything taken care of
Birthday, anniversary, dinner with friends or business guests, family celebration: I write the menu for that one evening, around your guests and the season, with dietary needs and allergies taken into account from your first message.
I arrive with my maître d’hôtel and everything we need, cook every course in your kitchen, and plate it myself while your guests are served course by course.
Linen, glassware and tableware come with us. When the last plate is cleared, your kitchen is left exactly as we found it.
“We booked Chef François for my husband’s birthday at our villa in Dubai, after having already used his services in France. It was a full, seamless fine dining experience at home.”
How it works
Tell me the date, the occasion, where in Dubai and how many guests. I reply myself, the same day.
I send you a menu written for that evening, with what it includes. You can choose one of my three menus or ask for a bespoke one.
I choose the produce myself, arrive with my maître d’hôtel and our equipment, and cook every course in your kitchen, à la minute.
My maître d’hôtel serves your guests course by course while I plate. When the evening ends, your kitchen is left spotless.

Trained in Michelin-starred kitchens
I trained in some of France’s finest Michelin-starred houses: the three-starred Restaurant Georges Blanc in Vonnas, the two-starred Château Saint-Martin in Vence alongside Chef Yannick Franques, and Les Sources de Caudalie. I have cooked under my own name since 2016.
I moved to Dubai in October 2025 and brought the same standards with me, applied to the sunlit cooking of my native Provence: olive oil, market vegetables, fresh herbs and fish, light and seasonal.

In person
When you book me in Dubai, you book me. I design the menu, choose the produce, cook in your kitchen and plate every course myself. For larger tables, my maître d’hôtel and a service team join me, sized to your number of guests.
One evening, one occasion, one chef: that is what I do in Dubai, for your birthday, your dinner with friends, your celebration or your business dinner.

FAQ
Yes. I cook and serve the whole dinner at your villa, apartment or penthouse, for a birthday, an anniversary, a dinner with friends or with business guests. I work across Dubai, including Palm Jumeirah, Emirates Hills, Downtown, DIFC and Jumeirah Bay, and in Abu Dhabi.
For one evening. I come for a dinner you are planning, cook it in your kitchen and leave once the kitchen is tidy. I am not a resident or monthly cook, and I do not place chefs in households.
At your home: a villa, an apartment, a penthouse, or aboard a yacht in the marina or at sea. I bring the equipment I need and cook in your kitchen.
One fee for the evening, agreed before the date, with a written list of what it includes. It depends on the menu you choose and the number of guests, and nothing is added on the night. My three menus and what each includes are on the menu page; I also write bespoke menus on request.
The weeks around UAE National Day and the end-of-year holidays fill up first, so the earlier the better. For any other date, write to me anyway: I often have room, even at short notice.
