Foreword
I grew up in Patagonia, cooked at Noma and was head chef at Studio when it held a Michelin star.
My Christmas has become Danish: duck, red cabbage, herring and risalamande.
In this menu I cook them the way I like to eat them, with great produce and a little touch from home. Snacks are ready when your guests arrive, and the main course goes on platters in the middle of the table, so there is plenty for everyone.

Damian is incredibly talented and gave us a fantastic evening where the food and wine were absolutely world-class.
His good humor and smiling nature were contagious, and that is important when hosting a private event.
We can warmly recommend Damien, who had brought his lovely wife with him, which also made it extra smooth and easy for us to relax and simply enjoy the evening.

We paid *DKK 1400 per head* for this dinner and have used Chefme several times before. Unfortunately, the food took absolutely ages to be served. The guests were left just holding a wine glass in between courses for a very long periods of time. The hosts kept having to check in with the Chef to figure out when the food was going to be served as the timing was very badly done. Additionally, the main was not sized appropriately. The chicken portion was absolutely tiny and not enough for adults. This was despite us clearly stating this in the communication prior to the booking. We have used Chefme several times previously and have been very happy with the service & this is the first time that we're coming across this type of issue. It gives the impression that the Chef did not appear very well prepared for the dinner. At this Price point we expected a much more professional service where guests were not waiting for food for ages in between servings. All guests noticed the inordinate delays in between courses. The Chef was good with communication and was friendly and punctual, but unfortunately what counts most is the delivery of the food and the food was not on point for this type of dinner.

Change the menu and the number of courses

When is the latest I should book a chef?

What happens when I send a request to the chef?
When you send a request to a chef, you also create a profile, so you will be notified when the chef has replied to the request. You get access to a message thread where you can write to the chef at any time and agree on the details.
Can I change the chef's menu?
You can start from one of the chef's menus or have a menu tailored to your taste.
More into fish than meat? Or do you prefer cake over ice cream for dessert? Send a request to the chef and share your wishes, so together you can put together a menu that suits you and your party. The chef can also make alternative menus based on allergies as well as children's menus.
Does the chef bring everything needed?
Further up the page you can see what the chef requires from your kitchen, and what the chef can bring. If in doubt, you can ask the chef once you have sent a request.
What do I need to take care of myself when I book a chef?
The chef handles shopping, cooking, serving and cleaning up the kitchen. So you just need to set the table, provide drinks (unless you have added a wine menu or similar) and enjoy the time with your guests around the table.
