I’m Teilmann Hansen — a private chef with over five years of experience crafting elevated dining experiences for individuals, families, and events. I co-founded Enigma Chef, a ghost kitchen known for refined flavors and consistent 5-star reviews, built on attention to detail from the very first bite to the final plate.

My cooking is rooted in precision, creativity, and personalization. I specialize in sous vide and modern French techniques inspired by Thomas Keller, and I tailor each menu around your tastes, dietary needs, and the occasion. I handle everything from planning and sourcing to plating and cleanup, so you can relax and enjoy a memorable meal in total comfort.

My secret in the kitchen is treating every ingredient with love and respect.

What you can expect when you dine with me

I cook with love, passion, and precision

Cooking is love and passion for me—I live, sleep, and breathe the art of food and the cultures it encompasses. I channel that energy into precise technique, thoughtful flavor, and a menu that feels personal to you.

I’ve built my craft from family roots to professional mastery

I started cooking at a very young age with my mom in Pohnpei, Micronesia, and I’ve continued through culinary courses, online master classes, family gatherings, and owning two food businesses. Every step shaped how I plan, cook, and serve with confidence and care.

I honor ingredients and the people I’m cooking for

My philosophy is simple: I treat every ingredient with love and respect. That mindset guides how I source, prep, season, and plate—so each course feels intentional, balanced, and memorable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in United States?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 145 USD, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Local, Seafood/Fish, Italian and Latin American. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.
