Private Dining in your Côte d’Azur Villa
Who could ever get enough of long, relaxing evenings in their own villa? Even better in the company of guests you adore. Let us make it happen: a gorgeous table, exciting dishes paired with ‘wow’ wines and a lot of fun.
We do things our way: relaxed, effortless, fully taken care of. Except when we cook. In the kitchen, it's full-on energy, stretching our limits with occasional improvisation during service.

We are Chef on Location; Wim and Quinten Bertram, father and son, bringing Mediterranean flavours straight to your table. Since 2022, we've been creating memorable dining experiences for groups of 6 to 20 across the Côte d'Azur, all year round. We shop, chop, prepare, serve and leave your kitchen clean.
We take inspiration from the morning market, working with the best seasonal ingredients. Our base kitchen is in the medieval village of Tourrettes-sur-Loup, a foodie destination worth a visit, where we mise en place your menu. It's tiny, but we still manage to find space for growing fresh herbs, pickling and fermenting.
Exploring new dishes, flavour combinations and techniques is what keeps us going. Preparing great food and creating evenings for our guests remains the best job we can imagine.
We're happy to accommodate vegetarian, vegan and any other dietary requirements. Quinten is a trained nutritionist. He knows his produce and masters his techniques. In our kitchen, vegetables take centre stage.

Birthday dinner celebration - Tourrettes-sur-Loup - Katrina from London
“I highly recommend Chef Wim, who brilliantly orchestrated a gala dinner for 18 people! The meal catered to everyone's food allergies while being gourmet, delicious, and elegant. His team is very professional and pleasant, and we will definitely be calling on him again!“
International networking event - Tourrettes-sur-Loup
“Thank you again, Wim, for this wonderful meal and for the quality of the service. You rose to the challenge of working at a gourmet level in a kitchen that had no lighting, no hot water, and a stove that heated very poorly!“
“We wanted to say a huge ‘Thank You’ for such an enjoyable evening. The food was delicious, we were very impressed by the menu, flavours and presentation; and the company was fantastic! It was such a treat to be cooked for and to be able to enjoy our time together as a family. The whole evening flowed and you both presented a calm presence that felt like we spending time with friends!
Thank you again and wishing you both every success as Chef on Location continues to shine.“
Family dinner - Vence - Gabi from UK
“We had Wim and his wife come to our home and prepare a dinner. From the moment he called through the door you knew it was going to be a fun night. Wim was flexible in what he cooked and used only the freshest ingredients. The food was delicious and he made so much we had leftovers a second day! He and his wife handle EVERYTHING from start to finish. We also had them buy some wine for a pairing which just added another level of perfection to the evening. It was one of the highlights of our trip and we will have them every time we visit!“
Friends dinner - Tourrettes-sur-Loup - Lucy from US
“If you are looking for a private chef to cater you while in Provence, look no further. Wim and Sabine prepared spectacular multi-course dinners for us from fresh ingredients sourced from local markets. The meals managed to be sophisticated and creative, yet accessible enough to enough to please everybody in our varied group of a dozen adults and teens. More importantly, they cook with joy. It was like having two extra family members in the kitchen. You will not be disappointed.”
— J. Nachmanoff, USA California
