ChefMaison: The Dutch Platform Connecting Local Chefs with International Food Lovers

In recent years, the way we experience food and dining has changed dramatically. Where once special dinners were reserved for restaurants, today there's a growing demand for personal, intimate culinary experiences - right at home. At the heart of this movement is the Dutch platform ChefMaison.

Founded in 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, ChefMaison started with a simple but powerful mission: to help professional chefs continue sharing their passion by offering unique private dining experiences.
What began as a local solution in the Netherlands has now evolved into a vibrant European network of chefs and food enthusiasts.

Local Chefs, International Guests
What sets ChefMaison apart is the direct connection it fosters between chefs and guests - with no middlemen or agencies involved. Guests communicate directly with their chef, allowing them to create a fully personalized menu and experience.

In Portugal, where gastronomy is an essential part of the culture, ChefMaison now offers local chefs a platform to showcase their talents. Through the site, Portuguese chefs can reach an international audience eager for authentic and personal culinary adventures.

Whether it's a private five-course dinner in Lisbon, a traditional cataplana feast in the Algarve, or a summer barbecue in Porto, ChefMaison makes it easy to book a private chef with just a few clicks.

Supporting Local Talent
Beyond creating new work opportunities, ChefMaison is committed to supporting local talent. Chefs retain full creative control over their menus and service style, while the platform assists them with visibility, marketing, and access to a global clientele.

Founder Casper believes the platform's success goes far beyond food:
"We believe that food brings people together. Especially now, in a world where personal connection is more valuable than ever, we want to give chefs and guests the chance to create truly unique memories together."

The Future of Home Dining
Today, ChefMaison operates across several European countries, including the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, and Portugal, and is continuing to expand rapidly. With its strong focus on quality, personal experience, and flexibility, the platform is perfectly positioned to meet the growing demand for authentic, tailor-made dining experiences - anywhere.
