Our experience with Chef Olav was fantastic. He combines unexpected flavors into combinations that are sure to be enjoyed by all. From the family style breakfasts, delicious lunches, and beautifully plated dinners and desserts, his creativity and unique “world fusion” is evident in his cooking. A favorite item of mine was the coconut polenta with creole sauce, and the vanilla ice cream served in a quarter of a pineapple shell with fresh chocolate shavings on top. Highly recommend!

Chef Olav is amazing! We can reliably say our vacation would not have been nearly as wonderful without Chef Olav. He and his lovely assistant, Jeadralica, make a wonderful team. Chef Olav‘s cooking is delicious and top notch while his personality and work ethic are equally incredible.  He got to know our large family within a day of being there and quickly learned our disparate likes and dislikes. He made us feel comfortable and truly happy with every single meal. We recommend Chef Olav highly!

“For two days, we had a chef who consisted of a mix of compassion, humor and elegant cooking. His name is Chef Olav. All of his meals brought something new to the table and my taste buds. From Dutch apple bacon pancakes to tuna carpaccio, every meal was a wonderful experience. The place setting was elegant, but not overwhelming in the slightest. Please check him out and ask him to cook for you. I promise that you will not regret your decision. Thank you Chef Olav for all you did for me and my family!{

“Olav and Mike are the best charter guys in the Caribbean. We did a 12 person cruise around St Martin and they absolutely crushed it. Food was great, beers were flowing, vibes were high.{

“We really appreciate your private chef services, Chef Olav! You are reliable, as timing plays a huge roll for catering events and your meals are so tasty, that it keeps our mouths watering for more. We look forward to many more lovely events with you and also recommend you to the rest of St. Martin & the world.{

“Thank you Chef Olav! We had a wonderful time in St. Martin and your provisioning and ready-made snacks were a welcome addition to our trip. It allowed us to start our vacation right away.  And as always, your New Year’s Day brunch was delicious. It was such a treat!.{

“Chef Lisa provided a wonderful meal for us combining a cornucopia of a seafood bisque and a properly cooked and seasoned local fish with local dishes.  Her delightful and charming personality added much to the evening. Best wishes to you and indeed we may connect again one of these days.{

“Let me start by saying that the culinary experience provided by this chef Olav Knol was exquisite. His cooking for an evening with my friends, my wife, and me created a charming atmosphere that set the stage for an unforgettable evening. Olav’s passion for food was evident in every dish served. Each course was a work of art, perfectly plated and flavorful. The use of fresh, high-quality ingredients was apparent in every bite, and the attention to detail was second to none. The standout main course: pumpkin and coconut milk mash with Faro, stir-fried veggies, and a tuna steak battered in sesame seeds accompanied by a delicious soy wasabi sauce, should be awarded a prize for excellence in taste. The perfectly steamed shrimp dumpling soup with bok choy and mushrooms in a vegetable broth out of lemon grass, ginger, onion, cilantro, and other herbs was another of his highlights. Olav’s creativity and innovation shone through in every dish. The menu was diverse, and every course was a unique experience. The chef’s ability to blend different flavors and textures unexpectedly was awe-inspiring. But what made the experience special was Olav’s personal touch to the meal. He took the time to explain each of the different courses, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about providing a memorable dining experience. Overall, I can confidently say that Olav Knol is one of the best I have had the pleasure of dining with. The culinary expertise, passion for food, and attention to detail all created an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this chef to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience..{

“We have had the pleasure of experiencing Chef Olav’s creative cooking and hospitable presentation on several occasions. The consistency of quality is impressive. Chef has even converted a non-seafood eater into a fan of Tuna Tatarte! We look forward to enjoying his culinary skills again sooner rather than later.{
