I’m Avner Laskin — a Mediterranean chef with nearly four decades of experience, creating soulful, unforgettable dining experiences across Europe. From my base in Corfu, Greece, I cook for guests in private villas. I cook with honest ingredients, warm hospitality, and the kind of flavors that connect with the person in front of me. Rooted in the Mediterranean and shaped by every place I cook, I turn each menu into a moment to remember.

What you can expect when you dine with me

I cook to express and connect

Cooking is my form of expression—where passion meets creativity, where memories blend with flavors, and where every plate I serve tells a story.

I learned across Europe, from masters and grandmothers

I learned to cook in Paris, France. I learned to cook in Italy. I learned from chefs, and I learned from grandmothers—each place and each teacher shaped the way I cook today.

I host with heart

My secret in the kitchen is love, curiosity, and the joy of feeding others. I cook to make you feel at home—because hospitality is as important to me as flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Greece?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 175 EUR, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Italian, Mediterranean, Chef's special, Local, Seafood/Fish and French. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in Greece?

To book me in Greece, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Family reunion, Friends gathering, Romantic night and Foodie adventure. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
