I create private dining experiences that blend classic technique with modern twists—so every course tells a story.

David Michael Private Dining

I design story-driven menus with classic roots and a modern point of view.

I’m a professional private dining chef with deep experience across hotels, restaurants, and private golf clubs, and I bring that range to every menu I build—refined technique, warm hospitality, and plates that feel both memorable and personal.

I started cooking young and fell in love with the energy of the kitchen; over time, training and real service taught me how to balance precision with creativity. Today, I focus on seasonal flavors and thoughtful details, shaping each dinner around what you want to celebrate.

Plan my dinner with you

My secret is staying true to classic dishes while bringing them up to date with unique twists.

I bring modern creativity to timeless cooking.

I treat cooking like a living craft

To me, cooking is a dynamic art form—constantly evolving through innovation—where I blend tradition with new techniques to create unique flavor-driven plates.

I’m classically trained and built in real kitchens

I’m classically trained, with my culinary education rooted in George Brown College in Toronto and Brooklands College in Weybridge, United Kingdom, and I bring that foundation into every menu I create.

I modernize classics without losing their soul

My guiding philosophy is simple: I keep true to classic dishes, then refine and update them with thoughtful, unique twists that still feel authentic.
