The cooking I grew up with still shapes how I feed people today. My mother’s kitchen was my introduction to food; professional kitchens gave me the techniques to develop that foundation.

I’m Ketlid, a private chef based in Dublin with more than 16 years of experience. My career has taken me through Greece, Spain, the UAE, Italy and London. I spent five years at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, progressing to Sous Chef, and later became Head Chef at Marco Pierre White’s restaurant in Donnybrook.

Today, I cook for people in their own homes. You can book me for a tasting menu, a relaxed dinner or a family-style feast. I also teach cooking classes and offer weekly meal preparation tailored to individual preferences. Italian and Mediterranean influences run through my work, alongside the precision I developed in fine dining.
