About Us

Atlantica is a private chef consultancy specialising in the placement of exceptional chefs for private clients, residences, villas, estates and events worldwide.

Whether you are looking for a long-term private chef for your home, a seasonal chef for a villa or culinary support for a special event, Atlantica provides carefully selected professionals tailored to your lifestyle, preferences and requirements.

Our network includes experienced private chefs, family chefs, restaurant chefs and specialists across a wide range of cuisines and dietary preferences. Rather than operating as a volume-based agency, we focus on understanding both our clients and our chefs to create successful, long-term matches built on trust, professionalism and compatibility.

Atlantica provides chef placement services across four categories:

• Long-Term Chef Placement
• Seasonal Chef Placement
• Temporary Chef Placement
• Events & Special Projects

Founded by Deniz Kurt, a chef with over a decade of experience in private households and the superyacht industry, Atlantica was created with a simple philosophy: Finding the right chef is about more than skills, experience or cuisine. It is about finding the right fit.

Drawing on years of firsthand industry experience, we take a personal and selective approach to every placement, ensuring that each client is matched with a chef who not only meets the technical requirements of the role, but also fits seamlessly into the environment in which they will work.
