Chef Arthur Benício, Le Cordon Bleu Rio, UFRJ food-culture researcher, alumnus of Signatures (voted best teaching restaurant in Latin America). Personally vetted by our Experience Concierge Jonas. Not a marketplace find.

Same chef. Same standards. Three tiers depending on how your group is rolling, one-night dinner, villa stay, or full bachelor week.
One dinner. Done right.
Anniversary, birthday, kickoff dinner. Built around your party.
- $60/guest (1-8) · $55/guest (9-10)

Why route through us, not direct.
Whoever you book through will find you a chef. The difference is in which chef, and what shows up around them.
English on both ends
Menu, dietary, timing, we translate it all. You're not WhatsApp-ing the chef at 11pm, you're at a rooftop in Ipanema.
You set the clock
Long night out? Push breakfast to noon. You call meal times day-of and we coordinate with Arthur. Nothing rigid.
One person owns it
Your BBE Experience Concierge runs the whole booking. Something moves Day 3, you text one number.
Built around your group
Menu tuned to your party size and how you actually want to eat. Not a pre-set vendor roster.
Sourcing & logistics
Arthur and his kitchen assistant + server arrive prepped. Transport, ingredient sourcing, hand-offs, all included.
Dietary, allergies, kid-friendly
Vegan, gluten-free, halal, picky bachelor, all confirmed and signed off before he buys ingredients.
Vetted in person
Arthur is a personal friend of Jonas, our Rio Experience Concierge. We've eaten his food. You're getting our A-list.
