The private chef experience

A dining experience shaped around you.


Restaurant-level cooking, brought into a private space. The menu is planned with you beforehand — around what you like, what you avoid, how many of you there are, and what the evening is for.

No fixed covers, no set seating time. The kitchen comes to your villa and leaves it as it was found.

Meet your chef

Chef Galung


Eleven years in Bali kitchens, most of them on the Bukit peninsula.

Chef Galung started as Chef de Cuisine at Semara Luxury Villa and Finns Beach Club in 2015, then spent close to seven years at The Ungasan Clifftop Resort and Sundays Beach Club — first as Chef de Cuisine, later as Executive Sous Chef — including work alongside Australian chef James Viles. From 2023 to 2026 he was Executive Chef at Banana Day Club in Bingin.

High-end Western cooking is where he trained. Balinese and Indonesian food is where he comes from. Nature Private Chef is where the two meet — in your villa, at your table.

Before you book

Common questions


Do you bring the ingredients?

Yes. Every package includes all ingredients and preparation by the chef, and there is no separate chef fee on top.

Which areas do you cover?

Chef Galung is based in Uluwatu and travels to villas across Bali. Tell us where you are staying and we will confirm before you book.

How far ahead should I book?

Send the date on WhatsApp and the chef will come back with availability. Weekends and holiday dates go early, so earlier is safer.

Can you cook for dietary requirements?

Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal-friendly and allergy-conscious preparation are all handled. Tell us before the date rather than on arrival, so the shopping can be planned around it.

Do you clean up afterwards?

Yes. The kitchen and the work area are cleared as if no one had cooked there.

How does payment work?

Every booking is quoted per occasion and settled directly with the chef over WhatsApp. There is no online payment and nothing is stored on this site.
