Where we cook / Kensington

Japanese private chef in Kensington.

We cook across W8 and SW7, from Kensington Church Street down to the museums and out towards Holland Park. A chef comes to your kitchen, batch cooks the dishes you chose, portions them into your fridge and washes up before they go.

Where in Kensington we cook

W8, SW7, and the streets in between.

Kensington High Street Holland Park South Kensington Kensington Church Street Cornwall Gardens Earl's Court border

It is one visit rather than a standing arrangement, and it is meal prep rather than a dinner party. Two dishes takes about three hours, three dishes about four, and you end up with eight to twelve portions of Japanese home cooking.

If you are on the edge of the postcode, put it into the booking form and it will tell you in one click. You can also read how a private chef visit works, or see every area we cover.

Getting to you

Travel is included in every price.

High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road on the District and Circle, South Kensington on the Piccadilly as well.

Your chef sorts their own journey and it costs you nothing. We cook in Notting Hill, Chelsea and Fulham as well, so if you sit near one of those boundaries either page will do.

Where to do the fresh shop

On the hybrid and you-shop options, the fresh ingredients are yours to buy.

Kensington High Street handles a whole fresh shop end to end, and the parades either side of Gloucester Road are quicker if you are closer to SW7.

We send the exact list for your dishes when we confirm, and bring the Japanese pantry ourselves.
