Private Chef · Windsor
The area around Windsor and the Great Park represents some of the most established private entertaining in England. The houses within reach of the park — in Old Windsor, Datchet, Englefield Green and the Thames-side villages — carry a particular sense of occasion. The proximity to the Royal estates, the Eton and Guards communities, the Ascot season and the Thames at its most beautiful between Bray and Cookham: this is a part of England that has always known how to entertain, and has always expected it to be done properly.
The social calendar here is distinctive. Ascot in June, Eton events throughout the summer half, the Thames at its best from May through September, Christmas and New Year in houses that were built to receive guests. The entertaining that surrounds all of this — the dinners before and after the big occasions, the weekend house parties that the season generates, the long summer lunches in gardens that face the river — is the kind that deserves a chef who understands what it is for.
Andrés travels to the Windsor area for clients who want their country entertaining to match the quality of the occasion. The produce is always the finest available — from his London network of specialist suppliers and, where possible, the exceptional local and Thames Valley producers that this part of Berkshire offers. The cooking is seasonal and precise. The service is invisible. The evening is yours.
Services
The Ascot season in June is one of the great occasions for private entertaining in England. Pre-race lunches, post-race dinners, and the full calendar of gatherings that the weeks around the meeting generate — Andrés plans and executes the full service around the season's rhythm, with menus designed for the occasion and service that makes the entertaining feel effortless.
Enquire →The Thames at Bray and Cookham in summer is one of England's finest settings. A long garden lunch overlooking the river, a drinks reception on the lawn before the evening, a summer dinner for sixteen in the walled garden. Andrés manages the full outdoor service — produce, preparation, cooking, service and clean-down — to the same standard as any dining room.
Enquire →For the occasions that call for the full register: a seated dinner of twelve to twenty-four guests in a Windsor-area country house dining room, a menu of four to six courses built from the finest available produce, and service that moves through the evening with quiet precision. The kind of evening that the houses around here were made for.
