I create refined Modern Australian dining with bold Asian fusion flavours in Sydney.

Min Kim

I bring modern Australian and Asian fusion fine dining to your table—thoughtfully, beautifully, and with heart.

I was born in South Korea, where I built my foundation in modern Asian cuisine and refined my core techniques through real kitchen experience. In 2013, I moved to Australia and trained across modern Australian and Asian restaurants and cafés around Sydney, developing a style that blends precision, seasonality, and vibrant flavour.

Over the years I’ve worked alongside award-winning chefs and within large hospitality groups, where I learned French techniques, Modern Australian craft, and strong leadership in fast-paced environments. More recently, I’ve led restaurants and cafés as an executive chef, while also working for many years as a private catering chef with agencies and fine-dining catering companies.

Plan your event with me

My secret in the kitchen is balance: bold flavours, refined techniques, and thoughtful details that turn a meal into an experience.

I cook to create moments worth remembering.

I cook for experience, not just for food

To me, cooking is about creating memorable experiences through flavour, creativity, and genuine hospitality—and I bring that same care to every plate I serve.

I learned my craft in real kitchens

I learned to cook through hands-on experience in professional kitchens, where I developed my skills in places like Bentley, Stix, and Long Grain—building discipline, consistency, and a deep respect for technique.

I lead with balance and detail

My philosophy is balance: I combine bold flavours with refined technique and thoughtful details, so every course feels cohesive, elevated, and personal.

Chef Min’s Menus

I offer modern Australian menus with Asian fusion influences—ranging from elegant multi-course experiences to generous sharing feasts—built around premium ingredients, seasonal produce, and refined presentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Australia?

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 179.33 AUD, 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 specialise in?

I cook Japanese, Chef's special, Fusion and Seafood/Fish. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavour 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.

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Family reunion, Bachelor/Bachelorette and Friends gathering. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.
