A private chef in Courbevoie.

Courbevoie, at the gates of La Défense and the great residences of the Hauts-de-Seine. Prémices provides rigorously selected private chefs for bespoke meals and gastronomic events.

A private culinary experience in Courbevoie.

Courbevoie holds a singular position in Île-de-France. A town of international executives and demanding residents, it borders Europe's leading business district while keeping quiet residential areas (Bécon-les-Bruyères, the Faubourg de l'Arche, Charras) where people entertain in contemporary apartments or characterful houses. A Prémices chef comes to you, prepares a menu agreed in advance, cooks in your space, serves at the table and leaves your kitchen impeccable.

For which occasions?

Dinners with friends and family

A menu of the season adapted to your group, cooking on site and attentive service, with no constraint for the host.

Birthdays and private receptions

The intimacy of your own space, a menu designed for your guests and service from start to finish. From eight to twenty guests, Prémices adapts the chef, menu and format to the occasion.

Romantic dinners

A dinner for two at home, a bespoke menu, carefully prepared seasonal produce and no neighbouring tables: ideal for a proposal, Valentine's Day or an anniversary. See our dinner for two.

Corporate events

How it works.

  • Your brief. Tell us the date, place, number of guests and culinary wishes. We come back to you quickly.
  • Chef and menu. We choose the best-suited chef and submit a bespoke gastronomic menu for your approval.
  • On the day. The chef arrives about an hour and a half before the meal with fresh produce, cooks on site and serves at the table.
  • Afterwards. He leaves your kitchen clean and tidy. You have nothing to manage.

Selected chefs, not an open list.

Prémices is not a matchmaking platform where any cook can sign up. Every chef who joins the network is assessed on concrete criteria: punctuality, quality of plating, hygiene standards, the ability to adapt a menu to the client's constraints and wishes, and the gastronomic level the occasion calls for. That process guarantees consistent quality from one dinner to the next, as our 4.9/5 Google rating reflects. The network covers a wide range of styles (French gastronomic, Italian, Japanese including sushi and kaiseki specialists, Mediterranean, Lebanese, vegetarian, vegan), and some of our chefs and sommeliers hold the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France for tastings and workshops.

Prémices works throughout Courbevoie and the Hauts-de-Seine: Neuilly-sur-Seine, five minutes away, Levallois-Perret, Nanterre, Puteaux, La Garenne-Colombes and Bois-Colombes, as well as all of Paris.
