Foreword

N:When we talk Christmas lunches or dinners, we also talk about traditions and although I usually like to think outside the box, my opinion is that Christmas lunch should not be tampered with too much.
My idea of the perfect Christmas lunch is usually received with big smiles because there is a focus on balancing the richness of the Christmas food, the sour and the sweet, while also preserving the traditions and adding the small twists that make it a bit exciting.

The buffet runs in stages so that the warm things are still warm when they end up on the plate.
If your favorite is missing, it can be added or replace one of the dishes that are included.
Everything is of course made from scratch.

Delicious food. Choose ribs instead of spare ribs. We did, and it was a success. Plenty of food, so the late-night snack was also taken care of.

Michael cooked for a small team event for 13 place settings, where we had a delicious three-course menu tailored to the season. All dishes were beautifully presented, and it was a luxury to be able to sit and relax with the company while Michael was busy in the kitchen. After the service was completed, everything was neatly cleaned up and loaded into the dishwasher. Additionally, Michael was very pleasant, easy to talk to leading up to the event, and generally reliable. I would definitely recommend Michael.

Meet Michael N.
My name is Michael and I have been working professionally with food for over 30 years.
Everything I do is with great respect for the ingredients and the season. My style probably also bears the mark of my years in France and Italy. Flavor is paramount and I strive to keep my plates simple and beautiful.
As we are very busy and often have more than one event, it may happen that it is not myself who comes on the day but one of my chefs - however, it will always be me who has prepared the food.
Hope to see you!

Frequently asked questions

Have other questions? Read more under Help
What if I haven't planned the event yet?
We recommend sending a request so you can make sure the chef is available on your chosen date.
After confirmation you will still be able to:
Change the menu and the number of courses
Change the number of guests, allergies and children's menus
Write to the chef to discuss the menu and the dinner
When is the latest I should book a chef?
We recommend reserving your date as early as possible by sending a request to the chef, especially for weekends and around holidays or celebrations.
Need a chef at short notice, or is the chef unavailable on your chosen date? Don't worry! Our customer service is ready to help you find a chef. Call us on 93 40 40 10 or write to us at kontakt@chefme.dk
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.
