ABOUT
Meet the Chef
Michaël Caron — private chef in Whistler and founder of Whistler Coastal Chef, bringing 20+ years of culinary experience to private dining across Whistler and the Sea to Sky.
THE CHEF
I’m Michaël, a private chef based in Whistler, BC.
Originally from Quebec and now based in Whistler, I bring more than 20 years of culinary experience, with a background that includes Relais & Châteaux’s Manoir Hovey in Quebec and Whistler’s renowned Bearfoot Bistro. My cooking blends classical technique with fresh, seasonal ingredients and a refined West Coast approach.
After years in professional kitchens, I chose to focus on private dining, where I can create a more personal experience for every client. Every menu is thoughtfully tailored to the occasion, with a focus on exceptional food, genuine hospitality, and seamless service.
Whether you’re celebrating with family, hosting friends, or planning a corporate retreat, my goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience that allows you to relax and enjoy time with your guests.
HOW WE WORK
A few things we believe in
Cook with the season
Menus are written around what's actually good at the market that week — local produce, BC seafood, and quality meats.
Plan around the room
Your guests, your kitchen, your night. We adapt the menu, service, and pacing to fit — not the other way around.
Leave it better than we found it
Full service, then the kitchen goes back cleaner than when we arrived. All you need to do is enjoy the evening.
