Simple is Best

The luxury of simplicity

Ralph Schelling knows how to pamper people who already have everything. The private chef travels to his rich clients all over the world and cooks for them. His heart belongs to local everyday cooking which he takes to an entirely new level with the help of innovation, lots of flavour, and a pinch of luxury, while always preserving its very heart and soul.

This way he creates a magical mixture of nostalgic comfort food and high-class cuisine – like his shortbread, that thanks to pre-roasted flour and selected mountain butter becomes a particularly delightful treat. Snacks, large and small meals, desserts, salty bites, beverages, accompanied by easy-to-use professional tips and anecdotes from his travels – the cookbook is a wish come true that allows the broad public access to Ralph Schelling’s recipes. It is full of emotion and it carries a whiff of the big wide world into the kitchen.

Ralph Schelling: was the youngest participant to win the Swiss Culinary Cup. His work took the Swiss star chef from Catalonia to Tokyo, to legendary chefs such as Ferran Adrià, Heston Blumenthal, Andreas Caminada, and Seiji Yamamoto. Today he is a private chef who cooks for customers all over the world.
