Chez
Sónia

Based on São Miguel Island, in the heart of the Azores, we are a small independent business offering bespoke Private Chef experiences since 2017, built upon a culinary journey that began back in 2006.

Founded by Chef Sónia Melo (born in 1978), our brand is driven by passion, authenticity, and the art of storytelling through food.

Each experience is thoughtfully designed to reflect a deep respect for tradition, a love for genuine flavours, and a personal connection with every guest.

Surrounded by the Atlantic, we are privileged to work with the freshest local and seasonal ingredients, inspired by what this unique island has to offer.

Beyond the private dining experience, we are also the hosts of “Cozinha em Casa”, a culinary television programme broadcast on RTP Açores. The show has been proudly recognised with international awards and nominations (The Taste Awards), honouring our commitment to gastronomy, culture, and meaningful storytelling through food.
