Private chef · Los Angeles
A personal dining experience, shaped entirely around you.
As a private chef in Los Angeles, I bring the generosity of Mediterranean and Turkish cuisine, Italian technique, and the spontaneity of California's seasons to your home.
Every menu begins with your occasion, guests, dietary needs, and the feeling you want to create. Menu planning, ingredient sourcing, on-site cooking, plating, service, and the final kitchen reset are considered so you can be fully present with your guests.

About the chef
From Istanbul, through Italy, to Los Angeles.
Dogukan Aygul brings Italian technique, Mediterranean warmth, and a deep respect for ingredients to private tables across Los Angeles.
His path has moved through the kitchens of Four Seasons Hotel Bosphorus, NOBU Istanbul, Michelin-starred Ristorante Zass on the Amalfi Coast, and Fairmont Century Plaza. Today, that global experience becomes something personal: food designed around your home, your guests, and your occasion.
Luxury is not excess. It is attention — to ingredients, timing, and how people feel around the table.
Hands-on craft, from the first prep to the final detail.
