I deliver dining experience full of flavors, techniques and theater

How they describe their cooking

I’m a passionate Chef with international experience across high-end restaurants and 5-star hotels. Originally from Kaliningrad, Russia, I spent 8 years in Dubai before moving to Australia, where I’ve been based in NSW for the past 7 years. Most recently, I worked as Chef de Cuisine at Crown Sydney for 3 years in a successful luxury dining venue.

Today, I create elevated private chef experiences across Sydney, combining refined European techniques with modern Australian produce. I specialise in premium seafood, live-fire cooking, and high-quality meats, always paired with vibrant, seasonal sides. I also enjoy exploring Latin and Japanese flavours and bringing creativity, theatre, and memorable hospitality into every event.

In their guests' words

Totally recommended!
LivOctober 2026
Sergey is absolutely amazing. Our experience was the best. Our family and friends were so impressed by Sergeys culinary skills and knowledge. Sergey has a fantastic personality and would highly recommend.
Judy G.September 2026
This was our first private chef experience and Sergey set the bar very high. He was easy to communicate with from the beginning and was accommodating with the menu for our guests. The setup was beautiful and the food even better. It felt like he fit right in with our group of seven and read the room well - kept us on schedule but never rushed and provided information and background without being too much. …
Shelly L.September 2026
Sergey was absolutely wonderful. He was polite and un-intrusive while also being friendly and attentive. He is clearly passionate about his food and the quality of his ingredients which was wonderful. Had a lovely night and highly recommend
Leyla A.September 2026
