Miami has become one of the most dynamic markets in private service. A wave of wealth — much of it from finance, technology, and international families relocating to South Florida — has met the city’s long-standing culture of waterfront living and year-round entertaining. The result is exceptional demand for private chefs who can match it.
The households we serve, on Star Island, Fisher Island, Indian Creek, and throughout Coral Gables and Miami Beach, are often international and multilingual, with tastes that draw on Latin American, Mediterranean, and seafood-forward cuisine. Because the season here never truly ends, a Miami private chef is a year-round professional — as ready for an intimate family dinner as for entertaining on the water.
Executive Chefs at Home places full-time private and estate chefs, live-in or live-out, throughout Miami and South Florida, drawing on top-tier talent that is rarely on the open market. For families who move between residences, we place with continuity across a family’s homes.
