We were very lucky to have Chef Marian cook for us during our ski trip in Zermatt. Every meal was more delicious than the next. The presentation and ingredients were immaculate. Chef Marian is not only immensely talented but a kind, lovely person. We highly recommend The Private Chef and hope that we have the opportunity to experience his meals again in future. Every member of our family from an infant, to three teenagers and us adults loved his cooking. Thank you Chef!

We recently had the incredible pleasure of having Chef Marián cook for our family during our stay in Zermatt, and it was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment he arrived, his warm, kind presence made everything feel relaxed and special, he truly felt like part of the family.
The food was simply impeccable, insane flavors in every single dish. He took the time upfront to understand our likes, dislikes, and any dietary preferences, then tailored a custom menu that perfectly suited everyone. The quality and creativity surpassed anything we've ever tasted spotlighting fresh, seasonal ingredients. Our kids, who can be picky eaters, were absolutely obsessed! They kept asking to "eat at his restaurant" every single day afterward. That's high praise from little ones!

Beyond the amazing meals, he was so thoughtful and generous, sharing his personal favorite spots around Zermatt for eats, drinks, and hidden gems we never would have found on our own. His kindness and genuine enthusiasm elevated the whole experience.

If you're in Zermatt and want a memorable, hassle-free dining experience in your chalet or apartment, especially with kids or a group. BOOK HIM without hesitation. We can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you for making our vacation magical!
