Wesley Kutner
Your Private Chef in Mallorca
From an early age, fishing and hunting in the English countryside taught me to respect what we eat, and I would pick fresh ingredients from the family garden to bake apple and blackberry pies. As a teenager, I was lucky enough to enjoy the food of the most prestigious restaurants in Britain and soon came to realise that food was my calling.
I attended catering college after finishing school and since then, have lived and worked primarily in Italy and Spain, and as an onboard chef for a host of luxury yachts cruising the Mediterranean and the Arabian sea.
MY PHYLOSOPHY: ‘The world on your plate’
I've been extremely lucky to travel the world as a private/yacht chef and experience different cultures during my career, tasting their cuisines and broadening my culinary repertoire. This means I’m able to adapt my menus and style to suit the many different needs and nationalities of my clients.
Whether I’m cooking in a restaurant or aboard a super yacht, my philosophy is simple – hygiene, fresh ingredients and healthy, varied menus are at the heart of all my cooking. And I am proud to have served the following restaurants, clients and vessels: Marc Fosh Catering, Hotel Universo Rome, Hotel Saratoga, Bar.Co, Mediterraneo 1930, The Orchard Restaurant, Chez Duprez, The Cavendish Hotel. La Cucaracha, Amigos, Wellies Porta Portals.
HALAL, GLUTEN FREE, VEGETARIAN FRIENDLY
I’m a classically trained cook, embracing many styles and techniques. I have cooked for over three decades on land and sea. After leaving college to study hotel management, I left the UK to work in Italy and Spain, Mallorca. My objective is to cook for people who become addicted to total freshness and quality, great food not only sustains life but enhances it. My cooking is a celebration of this fact. I’m also experienced in creating dishes that cater to unique dietary needs such as halal, gluten-free, and vegetarian diets, making sure that everyone can enjoy delicious and satisfying meals.
