Samuel

The house, at its best

Luxury Villa Dining

A great villa deserves better than reservations. Samuel takes over the kitchen for the length of a stay, so the house becomes the destination.

The commission

Long lunches that drift into the afternoon. Dinners timed to the light. Breakfast for whoever is awake. Villa dining is less about any single meal than about a stay in which no one ever has to think about food.

Samuel arranges sourcing around what the region does best, cooks to the mood of each day, and keeps the kitchen invisible — present when wanted, gone when not.
