A Dinner Designed Around the People at the Table

Private dining with The Unseen Chef is not a fixed restaurant menu dropped into your house. The menu, pacing, and format can be shaped around the guests, the occasion, and the kind of evening you want.

Custom Menus

Menus are built around the occasion, your preferences, and the style of dinner you want to host.

Restaurant-Quality Service

Chef John brings more than 30 years of professional kitchen experience to intimate dinners and special events.

In Your Home or at the Studio

Private dining can be planned in your home or, when the event is a good fit, at The Unseen Chef Studio in Albuquerque.

Small Celebrations

A strong fit for anniversaries, birthdays, date nights, dinner parties, tastings, and other occasions centered around a memorable meal.

What Can a Private Dinner Look Like?

The format can be simple and relaxed or more structured and course-driven. Recent private dining work has included plated multi-course dinners, tasting-style menus, family-style meals, and special occasion dinners built around premium ingredients.

If you already have a favorite dish, cuisine, wine, ingredient, or memory you want the menu to revolve around, that is often the best place to start.

Planning Your Event

Send the date, guest count, location, and a little about what you are celebrating. From there, Chef John can talk through the menu, service style, dietary needs, and what will work best in the space.

Pricing is quoted for the specific dinner based on the menu, guest count, ingredients, service, and location.
