Ocean Breeze – Private Chef Marrakech (Fine Dining at Your Villa)

Welcome to Chef Marrakech, your trusted private chef in Marrakech for refined in-villa dining. Designed for travelers who value privacy, comfort, and thoughtful gastronomy, the Ocean Breeze menu brings fine dining to your riad or villa without compromising on ambiance or service. Our chef curates a four-course experience that highlights the best of Moroccan hospitality and market-fresh ingredients, presented with contemporary finesse. From pre-arrival planning to discreet clean-down, we handle every detail so you can relax, celebrate, and savor each course at your own pace.

Expect elegant plating, seamless timing, and warm, attentive service inspired by Marrakech’s storied culinary culture. We source seasonal produce, premium fish and lamb, and fragrant herbs—delivering a balanced sequence of courses that feels both modern and unmistakably Moroccan. Whether it’s an anniversary dinner, a family celebration, or a team event, Ocean Breeze transforms your home-away-from-home into a boutique restaurant—exclusively for you.

Ocean Breeze Menu Overview

Ocean Breeze pairs coastal freshness with the warmth of Moroccan tradition. The menu opens with refined bites that awaken the palate; progresses to a bright, citrus-kissed entrée; moves into a deeply comforting lamb couscous—the hero of the evening—and lands on a cool, aromatic finale. The pacing is designed for unhurried conversation and effortless hosting: your table is set, water is poured, and each plate arrives exactly when you’re ready for it.

For a welcome drink, we recommend a house mocktail of citrus and mint or your preferred wine pairing. Every element is intentionally composed to deliver contrast—crisp and creamy, bright and savory, cool and warm—so the meal flows like a gentle breeze from the Atlantic to Marrakech’s golden light. It’s restaurant-level polish delivered as private dining in Marrakech, right at home.

Course-by-Course Experience

Amuse-Bouches

Crispy Rice Bites with Tuna · Bruccetta Bread with Tomatoes & Basil · Varied Canapés

Three elegant bites set the tone. The crispy rice offers a delicate crunch beneath silky tuna, balanced with a whisper of citrus and herb. The tomato-basil bruccetta is fragrant and sun-sweet—simple, perfect, and irresistibly fresh. A selection of canapés rounds out the trio with textural play and polished presentation. Together, they awaken the senses while leaving ample space for the courses to follow.

Entrée – Smoked Salmon on Blinis

Smoked Salmon on Blinis with Lemon Cream Sauce

Feathery blinis carry ribbons of smoked salmon, finished with a bright lemon cream that lifts and refreshes. Expect soft, warm, and melt-in-the-mouth textures punctuated by delicate acidity. A touch of citrus zest and micro-herbs adds perfume without overpowering the salmon’s natural character—an elegant prelude to the main course.

Main Course – Lamb Couscous

Lamb Couscous

The heart of the Ocean Breeze menu is our lamb couscous: tender, slow-cooked lamb layered over fine semolina grains with seasonal vegetables. The spice profile is nuanced—gentle ras el hanout, saffron notes, and garden herbs—creating depth and comfort rather than heat. Served family-style or plated individually, this dish celebrates Moroccan generosity and craftsmanship, bringing guests together around a centerpiece that feels both festive and deeply satisfying.

Dessert – Citrus Sorbet with Mint

Citrus Sorbet with Mint

A refreshing finale of bright citrus and cool mint resets the palate. It’s light, cleansing, and designed to linger just long enough. For those who wish, we can follow with Moroccan mint tea to close the evening in classic style.
