Manifesto
I don’t cook for a restaurant. I cook for your moment, wherever it happens. Every occasion, a menu written just for you.
About me
A new generation,
contemporary cuisine.
“Every dish tells a story: precise technique, carefully chosen ingredients and an aesthetic that turns dinner into an experience.”
I’m Giacomo Pochini, a chef in Perugia. I interpret fine dining with a fresh perspective: constant research, carefully chosen ingredients and a contemporary approach to events.
With FoodPok I bring my cooking to your home, your party, your event. The comfort food you don’t expect, cooked for you.

How does booking work?
Fill in the form on the Book page or message me on WhatsApp with the date, place, number of guests and occasion. I read every request myself and get back to you to plan the menu and details together. The date is confirmed only once we have agreed.
Where do you cook?
I'm based in Perugia, Umbria. I cook in your home or at your event venue: for other areas, write to me and we'll work out how to organise it.
How much does a private chef cost?
Every proposal is tailor-made: the quote depends on the number of guests, the menu and the location. Tell me about your occasion and I'll prepare a dedicated proposal, with no obligation.
Can you adapt the menu to allergies, intolerances or special diets?
Yes, just mention it in your request. Every menu is created from scratch and I take each guest's needs into account from the very first proposal.
How far in advance should I book?
The sooner the better: write to me as soon as you have a date in mind and I'll tell you straight away if I'm available.
