Chef Valentino

Chef Valentino Private chef in Chicago, Western Michigan and beyond, offering the best of Italy and Spain. From taste to smell to sight, each dish is designed to please.

Originally from Venezuela, I became fascinated with cooking as I watched my grandmother make arepas and cachapas for us when I was growing up along the mountain-backed beaches of Cumana, Venezuela. I was her helper in the kitchen, and through her, I learned the how to trust my own sense of taste to be able to cook without a recipe. In my adult life, I spent 25 years in family and commercial kitche

ns across Italy and Spain, where I learned the traditions and secrets that elevate Italian and Spanish dining to an art form. Today, I offer curated, custom menus of the best of Italy and Spain to private dinner parties in unique properties in Chicago; Saugatuck, MI; and Watseka, IL. When you come to one of my dinners, you’ll experience dining the way it is meant to be — as a delight to the senses.
