Trevor Chappell

Award wining Executive Chef and part owner of several successful restaurants. Currently I own my own Personal Chef company with over 5 years of experience for High-Net-Worth individuals and families. I enjoy the challenge of creating new and exciting dishes for my employers, keeping in mind their unique dietary requirements. I have dedicated myself to ongoing professional development, learning more about the latest culinary and nutritional trends. 

As a Private Chef, I want to support the lifestyle of HNW individuals and families, allowing them to enjoy delicious, nutritious foods that support their health and culinary palate.
