Private chef.

Gaëlle Battistuta

Based in Dordogne, in the heart of the Périgord Noir, I travel throughout the department and beyond, depending on your wishes and your project.

My cuisine is an invitation to travel. I draw inspiration from cuisines from around the world, their recipes, flavours and traditions, creating dishes that may sometimes feel familiar and sometimes be less well known, always with the desire to introduce you to something new.

This cuisine evolves with the seasons and my inspirations, with a focus on French produce and, whenever possible, locally sourced ingredients. Menus can also be adapted to the tastes and preferences of your guests, through a dialogue that allows us to create a coherent and personal offering together.

Honest, open-minded cuisine with a global outlook, thoughtfully created for each project.

Italian-Style Beef Tartare - hanger steak or skirt steak, green pesto, semi-dried tomatoes, ewe's milk Tomme cheese with Espelette pepper, rocket
Seared Cuttlefish, Charred Courgette Cream & Crisp Vegetables
Linguine with Escabèche Mackerel
French Toast with Pink Praline Coulis, Pink Praline Cream & Milk Ice Cream, Astina cress
Rump Steak Mosaic, Ratatouille & Rich reduced jus
Chicken Flautas
Coconut Cloud with Mango & Passion Fruit
Salmon Tartare with Jeju Mandarin Vinegar & Olive Oil-Roasted Peaches
Cod & Herring Fritters, Tzatziki-Style Sauce
Kefta & Shakshuka

Whether it’s a romantic dinner, a birthday, a special occasion, or simply a chance to treat yourself, I’ll come to your home or holiday accommodation.

My cuisine draws inspiration from dishes from around the world, some of them less familiar, prepared with local and seasonal ingredients.

A way to discover new flavours without leaving your table.

Nathalie ★★★★★
 

This private chef is a true food enthusiast who puts her whole heart into what she does. The dishes were as beautiful as they were delicious, with quality ingredients and perfectly balanced flavours.

Beyond the food, she is also warm, professional and attentive, adapting to our preferences while introducing us to new and unexpected flavour combinations.

Everything was perfectly organised from start to finish, allowing us to fully enjoy our evening. 😌

Thank you so much!!

It was a wonderful experience that Chef Gaëlle created for us. She is truly talented and passionate, and we could really taste that passion in her cooking.

Everything was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend her if you’re looking to enjoy a truly wonderful culinary experience.

Gaelle cooked for a group of 20 people for five evenings (with delivery), and on the sixth evening, she came to cook and serve on site.

Everything was perfect! The dishes were generous, plentiful, varied and flavourful!

Thank you for these wonderful and delicious moments!

I highly recommend her ++++++++

Gaëlle prepared all of our meals for the week for 20 adults, and provided a private chef service on the last evening of our holiday. Her cuisine is delicious, creative and international. I would also like to highlight how accommodating she was, preparing everything without milk proteins throughout the week for two people with allergies.

In short, a true professional with real talent, whom I highly recommend if you are in the Dordogne.
