Hi, I’m Chef Ben.
Ben Orora

I create heartfelt, creative private-dining experiences inspired by my journey from Kenya to Europe and now sunny Sydney.

I bring soulful, ever-evolving fusion cooking to your table—crafted from the heart.

I grew up in Kenya with a dream of becoming a chef, and watching professional kitchens sparked my passion for truly good food. After culinary studies at home, I traveled through Europe to deepen my training and experience, and eventually I made my way to Australia—bringing my creative approach to private dining in Sydney.

I’m always inspired by my clients, and I love challenging myself with every menu I design. My private chef service is for anyone looking for something unique, engaging, and enjoyable—paired with a fantastic dining experience.

For me, cooking is creating something out of nothing—with joy and love.

What you get when you dine with me

I cook with joy and love

I believe cooking is about turning something simple into something memorable—creating something out of nothing with joy and love, every time I step into a kitchen.

I’m trained, practiced, and always learning

I built my craft through culinary school, patisserie, consistent self-practice, and the intensity of MasterChef Australia—so I can deliver confident, creative food in real-world dining settings.

I keep it sharp: fast, clean, no excuses

My kitchen philosophy is simple: I work fast and clean always, and I never make excuses—so your experience feels smooth, professional, and effortless from start to finish.

Chef Ben cooked an amazing three course meal for me and friends which was not only delicious but so creative combining flavours and elevating the small details. He was also a joy to have in the home - very patient with toddler age children peeking in to see what he is doing and handing him drawings, working around a very full refrigerator, me causing two accidents and was able to l work through our appliances and kitchenware independently. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for a 5 star restaurant experience whilst enjoying a stress-free at home. Thanks Ben!
