I create elevated private dining in Sydney, blending refined European technique with modern Australian produce, live-fire cooking, and a touch of theatre.

I turn premium seafood, live fire, and world-class technique into unforgettable private dining.

I’m a passionate chef with international experience across high-end restaurants and 5-star hotels. Originally from Kaliningrad, Russia, I spent 8 years in Dubai before moving to Australia, and I’ve been based in NSW for the past 7 years. Most recently, I worked as Chef de Cuisine at Crown Sydney for 3 years in a successful luxury dining venue.

Today, I create elevated private chef experiences across Sydney, combining refined European techniques with modern Australian produce. I specialise in premium seafood, live-fire cooking, and high-quality meats paired with vibrant, seasonal sides, and I love exploring Latin and Japanese flavours to bring creativity, theatre, and warm hospitality to every table.

I bring international experience to your table

I learned to cook from childhood on my family farm and later alongside great chefs worldwide, where I absorbed different cuisines and modern techniques that I now tailor to your event.

I respect ingredients and elevate them with technique

My secret in the kitchen is combining flavour, technique, and creativity, while respecting every ingredient I cook with—so each dish feels refined, vibrant, and purposeful.
