Private Chef & Catering

The Bon Appetite philosophy is simple: we create exquisite, restaurant-quality food wherever you need it – in your boardroom, in your home or on your wedding day.

Our kitchen is headed by an exceptionally talented chef who has worked in every conceavable hospitality enviroment worldwide including some of the most opulent superyachts ever built and 5 star restaurants in Europe and in the South Pacific region.

We source only the best local produce and create amazing dishes for you and your guests enjoyment. Our menus draw from the finest ingredients and every dish is created with passion and attention to detail.

We take pride in creating exceptional food… anywhere: in a boardroom, a marquee, a supermarket carpark, in your garden or your private dining room.

We cater for everything from small lunch platters for your office, conferences, gala dinners to weddings, cocktail parties and personal birthday celebrations in the Wellington & Wairarapa area. If you need a team of chefs and waiters or simply a private chef, our promise is that every element of your occasion will be exquisite.

Our team will work with you to gain a precise understanding of your needs. Our menus are designed specifically for your event. We will work with your guidelines and budget to take your vision and turn it into something very special.

Our emphasis is on using only the finest seasonal, origin traceable ingredients from artisan producers and local suppliers. Every person in our team is highly skilled, and Head chef Paul Carmicheal demands nothing less than perfection, preparing every dish with creativity, confidence and attention to detail.
