Private Chef
in Ubud

Private chef and villa dining in Ubud is a quieter, more soulful affair, shaped by the jungle valleys and rice terraces that draw people inland. The villas here are special — Sayan and Penestanan retreats cantilevered over the Ayung River, open-air pavilions wrapped in green, the kind of place where dinner is meant to be slow and intentional. Ubud’s guests come for wellness, yoga, and reconnection, so the food follows suit. myCHEF’s Indonesian chefs, trained to international standards, cook fresh in your villa and lean into what suits this setting: vibrant plant-based menus, clean wholefood cooking, and authentic Balinese feasts that honour the place you are in. With private chef dinners from around IDR 500k per person, a candlelit table above the valley becomes the evening you remember most.

Ubud is also Bali’s retreat heart, and we cater accordingly. For groups, yoga retreats, and wellness gatherings we provide villa and buffet catering from roughly IDR 450k per person, designed around nourishing, beautiful food that keeps a program on track. A traditional Balinese feast — including babi guling and a spread of local classics — is a favourite way to give guests a genuine taste of the island. For special occasions there are fine-dining tasting menus from around IDR 950k per person, with thoughtful, often vegetable-forward courses. Pricing is fixed and shared upfront, usually quoted ++ (11% tax and 10% service), and a 50% deposit confirms your date, so planning a retreat menu stays simple and predictable.

To round out the experience, myCHEF can supply calm, professional in-villa staff — waiters, hosts, and bartenders — from around IDR 250k per hour, so a retreat dinner or celebration runs smoothly while you stay present in it. We serve all of Ubud and the surrounding villages: Sayan, Penestanan, Tegallalang, Mas, Pejeng, Ubud Centre, and the quieter valleys beyond. Wherever your villa hides among the rice fields, our team and standards travel with us. Reach out on WhatsApp with your dates and the number of guests; we usually reply within one to two hours, and same-day or next-day arrangements are often possible even up here in the hills.
