CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

From the very first contact, Chef Davide has been very attentive and helpful. He kept me fully informed and the event was a huge success. He really could not have been more professional, making sure everyone was catered for. He is very entertaining and we certainly felt that we had been extremely lucky to have secured his time. I can guarantee that if chef Davide is booked, you will have the most wonderful, traditional food. Each course was a delight and the whole event will leave fond memories.

Sarah - Verified Yhangry client - September 2026

Such a relaxing evening with fabulous, authentic Italian food. Not only is the food fabulous but Davide creates the perfect vibe so you feel relaxed while he creates his magic in the kitchen, serves it and then leaves the kitchen cleaner than when he arrived. What more do you want?

Christine - Verified Yhangry client - April 2026

We booked Davide for a family gathering of 6 adults. We quickly agreed a menu suitable for all, including 2 vegetarians and a guest with a nut allergy. Davide arrived promptly and easily unloaded his 2 boxes of food and kit. We thought the kitchen-diner might be awkward but Davide managed a perfect balance between discrete professional cooking and fun involvement. The Tuscan food was superb, and plentiful. The left overs were amazingly delicious the next day too. A great evening!

Julian - Verified Yhangry client - March 2025

This was our first experience of hiring a chef - from start to finish the whole process was very smooth. Davide was responsive to messages and arrived fully loaded! He was friendly and charming and the food was absolutely delicious, presentation was perfect and everything was left in immaculate condition. We all had a great time! Thank you Davide x

Mandy - Verified Yhangry client - December 2025

Chef Davide and his sous chef cooked for me and 13 friends over the weekend and the food was incredible. Every course was delicious, there was plenty of it, and we all left very full and very happy! Davide also shared stories about his life and the dishes as he served them, which made the whole evening feel really personal and special. We all loved it. Thank you so much!

ABOUT DAVIDE

Davide Cerretini is an Italian chef, restaurateur, and unapologetic troublemaker in the food world. Born in Tuscany and trained in traditional Italian kitchens, he built a career in both Europe and the United States before becoming internationally known as the 'One-Star Chef', owner of Botto Bistro, the California restaurant that famously invited customers to leave one-star reviews on Yelp.

Behind the headlines is a chef who cares deeply about food and hospitality. Davide’s cooking is rooted in the traditions of Tuscany - simple ingredients, confident technique, and big, unforgettable flavours. His private dining experiences combine that culinary heritage with the warmth, humour, and storytelling that have made him a favourite with guests for decades.
