Planning an anniversary dinner should feel exciting, not stressful. At Capitola Garden Feast, I bring fine dining directly to your Monterey home, garden, or vacation rental, so you can fully enjoy this milestone with your partner. As your Anniversary Dinner Personal Chef in Monterey, CA, I create an experience that’s both luxurious and deeply personal, crafted around your story, your taste, and your space.

Since founding Capitola Garden Feast in 2017, I’ve had the honour of serving couples and families across California with tailored culinary experiences that reflect elegance and warmth. Whether you’re planning an intimate dinner overlooking the ocean or a romantic evening under the garden lights, I’ll bring everything needed to turn your celebration into a lasting memory.

Celebrate Love With an Intimate Culinary Experience

Every couple deserves more than just a reservation at a crowded restaurant. With me as your personal chef, the evening unfolds at your pace, in your chosen environment, with a menu curated just for the two of you. This is not a catering drop-off. It’s a full-service, fine-dining experience prepared fresh, plated beautifully, and served with care.

Drawing on over 20 years in luxury hospitality, including time spent at the Palace Hôtel Bristol Paris and managing at GALLERY One in Fort Lauderdale, I bring a global standard of quality to your Monterey home. I’ve cooked for dignitaries like Pope John Paul II and icons like Tonino Lamborghini. And now, I want to create that same standard of excellence for your anniversary.

A Tailored Menu That Reflects Your Story

Before the dinner, we’ll discuss your favorite dishes, dietary needs, and any theme or style you’re envisioning. Whether it’s a rustic California-style farm-to-table dinner, a rich French-inspired meal, or an Italian coastal menu, I design every dish from scratch using seasonal, local ingredients.

Wine pairing? Special dessert request? I’ve got it covered.

Your anniversary menu will reflect more than just good taste; it will reflect you.

Monterey: A Backdrop Worthy of the Moment

Monterey’s natural beauty makes it a perfect setting for a special evening. Whether your dinner is held on a private patio with views of the Pacific, in the garden of a cozy Carmel cottage, or within the historic charm of downtown Monterey, I transform that space into a fine-dining destination.

And since I’m based nearby, I can bring in the freshest seafood, locally-grown produce, and even incorporate wines from surrounding vineyards. As a Top Rated Personal Chef in Monterey, CA, I know exactly how to highlight the region’s best on your plate.
