Hi! My name is Arno and I’m a French private chef based in Auckland. Trained in high end restaurants on the French Riviera, I was raised and educated in Provence. My services are tailored to your needs. They include luxury at-home catering, fine dining, gourmet catering, and even cooking classes with friends or colleagues and food styling. I also love to write about food!

You can check my work on my website: visit www.arnojullien.com, if you feel like it.
Otherwise you can also follow me on Google, Facebook and Instagram.

As a private chef in Auckland, my goal has been to focus on growing my local network and discover more and more amazing local produce and Kiwi producers. For 2 years now, I have been building a knowledge base of healthy, local and sustainable food made in New Zealand. Until now, I have showcased this on a few occasions so far, during restaurant pop ups (Scarecrow, Garnet Station) and I also organised culinary events and demonstrations at The Northern Club.

My difference is my heritage, and also the fact that I love to work with fusion. Trained in the Paul Augier culinary school in Nice, in France, my apprenticeship in 5 stars and Michelin restaurants has fashioned my taste for delicious food, crafted with ancient and modern techniques, to deliver excellence. My other passion is travel, which I've done extensively for 25 years. I lived in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and Lisbon and these places have created the food lover I am still today.

As a result, I dedicate a lot of time to my cooking but also to get to know my clients. After they contact me and we arrange a quick meeting at their home, we discuss their taste preferences, the number of courses and ingredients involved, the pairing with the wines and every other detail. Everything I do aims at providing my hosts with the best food and the best service possible.

I will be looking forward to add a post from time to time here, and answer any question you have.

Have a great day, and I wish you enjoy your food, your wines and your friends thoroughly!
