Tom Cruise dished out a hefty sum to fly three top chefs from Italy to South America to cook a meal for his 43rd birthday celebration.

Cruise flew the chefs from Rome’s Dal Bolgnese restaurant to a private yacht anchored off the Dutch Antilles islands - located off the coast of Venezuela - to prepare a luxurious three course dinner.

Joining Cruise on he yacht (owned by the Church of Scientology) were his fiancée Katie Holmes, ex-wife Nicole Kidman and a close friends and family.

The restaurant’s owner, Alfredo Tomaselli, spoke about the lavish request:  “We had a call asking about the availability of three chefs for Tom Cruise's birthday dinner.

Three of our chefs went and cooked for him.”

He says Cruise is a regular at the restaurant and frequently brought Nicole Kidman with him when they were still married.

“Whenever he is in Rome he always comes to us and he was always in here with Nicole Kidman.”
