Discretion
I never photograph my guests and never share a single name or detail. Discretion is an absolute rule, not an option.

Private Chef in Antibes
As your private chef in Antibes, I prepare bespoke menus on-site and serve at your table, from villas on Cap d'Antibes to apartments in Juan-les-Pins or the old town.
The cuisine
From the Marché Provençal to your table
My cuisine celebrates the rich flavours of the Mediterranean, featuring fresh fish from the Mediterranean Sea, sun-ripened fruit and vegetables from the Marché Provençal, carefully sourced meats, and the olive oil and herbs of my Provençal roots. From these elements, each menu is tailored to your desires and served directly at your table.
Below is a selection of sample dishes. We will, of course, curate your bespoke menu entirely to your taste.
- Heirloom multicoloured tomato salad, burrata & lemon-confit dressing
- Large lobster ravioli, fresh herb jus & lemongrass bisque
- Lightly seared wild turbot, champagne sabayon & young braised vegetables
- Artisanal cheese selection, Fromagerie Metin in Vence
- Traditional tarte tropézienne, soft brioche and vanilla cream

At your villa
Private Chef Experience in Antibes
Welcome. I am François Savin, your private chef. As your personal chef, I visit your villa or home to prepare a bespoke menu tailored to your guests, the season and the market. My culinary style is refined Provençal and French, subtly enhanced with a discreet Southeast Asian touch, and every arrangement is made directly with me. In Antibes, I prepare fine cuisine in locations ranging from secluded villas tucked behind the Cap d'Antibes pines to elegant apartments in Juan-les-Pins or the old town, all bathed in the soft coastal light.
