Chef Duje: Dalmatian Heart, Mediterranean Soul

Image alt description

With over a decade of experience in fine dining and hotel kitchens, I’ve developed a love for crafting dishes that reflect both tradition and innovation. From Radisson Blu to the shores of Brač, each experience shaped my culinary philosophy: precision, passion, and authenticity.

I learned to cook at home and during my years at Radisson Blu Split, where I discovered that true cooking begins with heart and patience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Croatia?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 76.40 EUR, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Seafood/Fish, Chef's special, Mediterranean, Local and Fusion. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in Croatia?

To book me in Croatia, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Family reunion, Bachelor/Bachelorette, Friends gathering, Romantic night, Corporate and Foodie adventure. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
