From intimate dinners to full event catering — I bring the restaurant to you.
"Good food should feel like a warm, sincere and heartfelt embrace — wherever you are."
I'm Melek. With over ten years of professional kitchen experience, I work as a private chef. I'm currently based in Kaş — one of the Mediterranean's most elegant, inspiring and timeless corners.
From this unique location I serve the entire stunning coastline — from the calm waters of Ölüdeniz to the elegant harbour of Kalkan, from the mystical coves of Kaputaş to the sophisticated atmosphere of Antalya.
The moment I step into your kitchen, that space becomes your home. When you sit at the table, I feel like a long-known friend. My deepest belief after ten years: truly great food doesn't only nourish the body — it warms the heart, makes the memory lasting, and makes people feel genuinely seen and valued.
Every dish is made from fresh, seasonal ingredients — sourced locally from the markets of Kaş.
First, we discuss the date, number of guests and your wishes. Then I create a personalized menu for you. Shopping, food preparation, service and kitchen clean-up are all taken care of by me.

During the summer season, I recommend booking as early as possible. I can also consider last-minute requests depending on availability.
