Underground supper clubs in Europe are giving travelers the chance to share an intimate meal prepared by a private chef. Here, our favorites.

On weekends in Paris, guests gather at Hidden Kitchen (dinner for two $240), where Seattle transplants Braden Perkins and Laura Adrian cook a seasonal 10-course tasting menu in a secret location announced via an e-mail that you receive after you book.

At the Loft (dinner for two $376), in London’s East End, Portuguese native Nuno Mendes prepares thrice-weekly English dinners (think leek hearts and lamb belly) in his modern two-story house.

Don’t miss chefs Montse Moreno and Xavi Manero’s 14-person get-togethers at Kokun (dinner for two $162), their apartment in Barcelona’s hip Gràcia neighborhood. Best dish: Iberian pork confit.
