About Felipe
Not just a chef.
A culinary artist.
Felipe Maya has spent over a decade at the intersection of gastronomy and exclusivity — cooking backstage for international artists, inside private residences for executives, and at high-profile events where the standard for excellence is simply non-negotiable.
Now he brings that exact level of craft, intention, and personalization to travelers staying in Medellín's finest vacation rentals. This is not a catering service. This is a private dining experience built entirely around you.

Over a decade as the trusted private chef for international artists on tour and high-profile figures across Colombia.

FAQ
Everything you
need to know.
Every question answered honestly — because the best experiences
start with complete clarity.
Why do I pay for groceries separately?
All ingredients are purchased fresh on the day of your experience — specifically for your menu and your group. This ensures the highest possible quality and full transparency about what goes into every dish. You pay exactly for what your group eats, nothing more. Felipe can also handle the shopping himself for a small additional fee.
How far in advance should I book?
Felipe limits the number of bookings per week to ensure every experience receives his complete attention. We recommend booking at least 5–7 days in advance. For peak dates, celebrations, and multi-day packages, earlier is always better. Last-minute requests may be accommodated depending on availability.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?
This is one of the most significant advantages of a private chef experience. Unlike a restaurant, where you adapt to their menu, Felipe builds the menu entirely around your group from the start. Vegan, gluten-free, keto, allergies, religious dietary requirements — all handled with care and precision, not as afterthoughts.
What does "full service" actually mean?
It means your only job is to enjoy the evening. Felipe arrives, sets up, prepares every course in your kitchen, plates and serves each dish at your table, and does a complete cleanup before leaving. Your space is left exactly as he found it. Nothing is left for you to handle.
How does the booking and payment process work?
Send Felipe a message with your dates, group size, and what you have in mind. He'll reach out personally to design your menu and confirm the details. A 50% deposit secures your date. You'll receive a grocery list 48 hours before your experience. The remaining balance is due on the day of your experience.
Do you cook at hotels and villas, not just Airbnbs?
Absolutely. Felipe works at any private accommodation with a functional kitchen — Airbnbs, penthouses, villas, private residences, and select hotels with private facilities. Just share your accommodation details when you reach out and we'll confirm availability for your space.
