Tatiane Carvalho Personal Chef
From R$ 649.00
From Jardins to Vila Nova Conceição, myChef connects you with São Paulo's top personal chefs to deliver a festive Réveillon feast at your home — so you're on the balcony with champagne at midnight, not scrubbing a pan.
Every premium restaurant in Jardins, Itaim Bibi, and Pinheiros books out months before December 31. And when you do get a table, you're paying four times the normal rate to be rushed through the night. A personal chef brings the celebration home — no reservation battle, no traffic on the Marginal at midnight, and no stranger at the next table.
Réveillon in Brazil means lentils for prosperity, pomegranate seeds for abundance, and seafood for a flowing year. Pulling all of that together while also managing a full dinner service is a feat no host should attempt alone. Your chef handles every dish, every timing, and every tradition — so nothing gets forgotten in the rush to midnight.
The host is always the last one to relax. Dressed in white, surrounded by guests who are already pouring the first glass, the host is still basting the main course. A personal chef changes that completely — you greet your guests, you sit at your own table, and you actually hear the countdown with the people you love.

Your chef proposes a festive menu tailored to your preferences — champagne-paired starters, a seafood centerpiece, the obligatory lentil course, and a midnight sweet table. Source ingredients come from Ceagesp and the Mercado Municipal, ensuring freshness on the city's busiest night.
On the 31st, your chef arrives hours before service, sets up in your kitchen, and prepares everything from scratch. They manage timing, plating, and pacing — including coordinating courses around midnight so no one misses the fireworks.
Dinner is served at your table. The clock hits midnight, the champagne is already poured, and after the celebration your chef cleans the kitchen and leaves. You wake up on January 1st with only memories — not dishes.
São Paulo doesn't have the beach, but it has everything else. On December 31st, the Paulistano Réveillon plays out across private rooftops in Itaim Bibi, spacious apartments in Moema, and elegant homes in Alto de Pinheiros. The city's greatest advantage is its food diversity: ingredients for any cuisine in the world are available, sourced from Ceagesp — the largest wholesale market in Latin America — or the beloved Mercado Municipal with its bacalhau towers and spice halls.
The tradition of wearing white, eating seven pomegranate seeds, and throwing flowers into water (or symbolically, off the balcony) is observed even in landlocked São Paulo. Add lentils at the table for financial luck, and your chef knows exactly how to weave these rituals into a dinner that feels both festive and meaningful — not tokenistic.
For hosts in Jardins, Vila Olímpia, or Brooklin, a personal chef for Réveillon is increasingly the norm rather than the exception. São Paulo's professional class has embraced the idea of celebrating at home without the burden of cooking — and the city's density of top culinary talent makes it possible.
Local Tip
Book your chef early — São Paulo Réveillon dates fill in November. Chefs sourcing seafood for the 31st shop Ceagesp on the 30th for the freshest catch. Ask your chef to plan the lentil course for 11:45 PM — eating them at midnight is an old Paulistano tradition for luck.
