The Zurich private chef market

Zurich is the most financially concentrated city in Europe, and the private dining market is shaped entirely by that fact. Private banking clients, hedge fund managers, pharmaceutical executives, and the families of significant inherited wealth represent a client base with standards and budgets that few other cities match.\n\nThe Gold Coast — the eastern shore of Lake Zurich, from Küsnacht through Herrliberg to Meilen — is where Zurich's wealthiest residents maintain lake houses, and summer events on these properties are a premium private chef format. A dinner on a Gold Coast terrace, with the lake in the background and a tasting menu designed specifically for the evening, is the format that defines this market.\n\nCorporate private dining in Zurich centres on the financial and pharmaceutical sectors. Discreet client entertainment — a private dinner for six to ten at a residence rather than a restaurant — is a well-established format in the banking and asset management community. Davos season (January) brings an influx of global business leadership whose entertaining standards are exceptionally high.
