## Description

Chef Mollie offers private Italian dining and hands-on culinary experiences in Carpinteria, Montecito, Santa Barbara, and beyond. Led by chef Mollie Ahlstrand, the business brings regional Italian cooking into a private estate or a client’s home, with each evening tailored to its guests and occasion. Mollie grew up in Mekele, Ethiopia, with strong ties to Italian culture, and trained in Rome, Umbria, and Bologna. Her former restaurant, Trattoria Mollie, received international recognition, including being named by National Geographic among the world’s Ten Best Destination Restaurants for two consecutive years.

Guests can book cooking sessions focused on handmade pasta, gnocchi, sauces, and fresh herbs, or arrange an in-home experience featuring a customized, off-menu tasting menu. Chef Mollie also creates bespoke dinners for celebrations such as anniversaries and bachelorette gatherings. Menus are planned from scratch and can accommodate dietary preferences and allergies. Experiences are fully private, with guest capacity varying by offering. Wine pairings can be discussed, and guests may bring their own wine. Availability and pricing are shared by inquiry.
