CHEF DINNERS
Intimate Chef Dinners & Wine Pairings
Some of the most memorable evenings happen around a shared table.
Originally trained as a chef, Sommelier Michael Perman brings a deep understanding of how food and wine speak to one another. Working closely with talented chefs, he curates pairings that feel natural, expressive, and beautifully in tune with each course, never overpowering, always enhancing.
Whether you’re hosting a candlelit multi-course dinner or a relaxed evening of small plates and conversation, Michael ensures the wines unfold in harmony with the menu and the mood of the night. Each pairing is selected to invite discovery, spark conversation, and make guests feel truly cared for.
These experiences are designed for private homes, discreet hotel settings, and intimate social clubs. Michael offers a trusted circle of culinary creators, or is happy to work with a chef you already love, allowing the evening to feel personal, effortless, memorable, and joyful

Chef Brittany Baldwin
Portland’s Premier Private Home Chef. Since 2005
Following graduation from Le Cordon Bleu with honors and a successful decade in the restaurant industry, I founded Les Saisons in 2005 (originally as Portland Home Chef), so I could focus on high-quality farm-to-table cuisine in an intimate setting.
My work starts with selecting the freshest seasonal, organic produce (seasonally supplemented by my own organic kitchen garden and orchard), which is then personally prepared in your kitchen, elegantly presented, and served to your guests in your home or vacation rental.
