Sizzle & Smoke: Hibachi Feast

This immersive private chef experience brings together the primal beauty of fire, the finesse of fine dining, and the spirit of Byron Bay.

Ignite your senses with a luxurious 3-course dining experience cooked over traditional Japanese hibachi coals.

Each dish is thoughtfully curated using the freshest local produce — from flame-seared seafood and smokey free-range meats to charred seasonal vegetables, all elevated with bold marinades and delicate finishing touches. Expect the crackle of coals, the aroma of woodsmoke, and the theatre of fire brought directly to your home or accommodation.

Perfect for intimate dinners, celebrations, or simply those who appreciate a sensory culinary experience that blends flavour, craft, and atmosphere.

FAQs

  • Once your date is confirmed, I’ll check in to understand your preferences, dietary needs, and any must-haves. Then I’ll design a custom, seasonal menu just for you. On the day, I’ll arrive with everything needed, cook in your kitchen, plate each course beautifully, and leave your space spotless.

  • Private dining experiences are available for groups of 2 to 12 guests. Whether it’s an intimate dinner for two or a special gathering with friends, I’ll tailor the menu and experience to suit.

  • I’m based in Byron Bay and travel across the Northern Rivers — including Ewingsdale, Bangalow, Suffolk Park, and the surrounding hinterland.

    If you're just outside the region, feel free to get in touch and I’ll see what’s possible.

  • Fridays and Saturdays tend to book out 2–3 months ahead, so the earlier the better.

  • Yes — not only are they welcome, they’re my specialty. From gluten-free to low FODMAP, vegan, paleo, and everything in between, I’ll work with you to create meals that are both deeply nourishing and tailored to your needs.

  • Think fine-dining meets wholesome, seasonal wholefoods. I specialise in deeply nourishing dishes that don’t compromise on flavour or beauty — perfect for special occasions with a healthful twist.
