New Year’s Eve in Dubai

Celebrate the final night of the year in absolute comfort

On 31 December, your private chef in Dubai cooks an exquisite dinner at your villa or aboard your yacht as the fireworks light the skyline.

The gastronomy

An uncompromising focus on pristine ingredients

Chef Savin designs each course around a single, exceptional ingredient (whether prime fish, tender poultry, succulent lamb, or a seasonal vegetable at its absolute peak that week) prepared to absolute technical perfection. Celebrating the authentic flavours of the South of France, the menu remains elegantly light to ensure a perfectly balanced dining experience.

Discover a selection of sample dishes below, keeping in mind that your final menu will be composed entirely bespoke to your tastes.

  • Chef’s daily canapés
  • Large lobster ravioli, fresh herb jus and lemongrass bisque
  • Seared red mullet fillet, citrus vierge sauce, spinach and young carrots
  • Artisanal French cheese selection
  • Lemon and lime tart, crisp sablé base and soft Italian meringue

Tailored event formats

From intimate dinners to grand celebrations

An intimate dinner for two

A refined, meticulously curated menu served on your private terrace or deck. Chef Savin operates quietly within the kitchen, maintaining absolute privacy and staying completely out of sight.

Gatherings for friends and family

A sophisticated formal seated dinner or an elegant standing reception for larger parties. A professional maître d’hôtel oversees the service, with additional front-of-house staff introduced seamlessly as your guest count increases.

Celebrations aboard a yacht

The identical high-end dining experience translated seamlessly onto the open water, fully prepared on board, surrounded by panoramic views of spectacular city fireworks.

An expertly managed New Year's Eve

Unrivalled fireworks views from your private terrace

New Year’s Eve in Dubai is world-renowned for its iconic fireworks illuminating the Burj Khalifa and the marina. By securing a private chef directly at your villa, you can enjoy these breathtaking views from the comfort of your own terrace or deck, entirely bypassing the stress of commercial restaurant tables secured months in advance. Each course arrives seamlessly at your table, masterfully prepared entirely on-site.

Whether hosting an intimate dinner for two or a vibrant gathering of friends, every operational detail is completely managed for you. Chef Savin meticulously prepares and plates each course, whilst a dedicated maître d’hôtel and his team oversee the flow of the evening, beautifully dressing the table, arranging floral details and managing the glassware. Dietary requirements, including vegetarian dishes, gluten-free options and specific allergies or personal preferences, are thoughtfully integrated into the menu design from your very first consultation.
