Chef John

I’m a professional chef with over 15 years of experience. I began as a pastry and bread chef, and that foundation still shows up in my attention to detail, balance, and finish—from appetizers to mains and desserts.

Over the years I’ve expanded into a wide range of cuisines, with specialties in Italian, American, and French cooking. My goal is simple: I want you to feel taken care of and truly satisfied with every course.

Let’s Plan Your Menu

Chef John
I treat every ingredient as art.

I cook with intention, technique, and a true love for the artistry of food.

I tell a story in every dish

Every dish I create tells a story, drawing inspiration from diverse cultures and culinary traditions, and I’m especially fascinated by the artistry that turns simple ingredients into something memorable.

I’m classically trained

Studying at the French Culinary Institute in NYC provided me with a rich foundation in culinary techniques and knowledge, and I bring that training into every menu I cook.

I respect ingredients like a craft

I treat every ingredient as art, and I build menus with care so each flavor, texture, and course feels intentional.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in United States?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 127.60 USD, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Italian, Local, Seafood/Fish and Latin American. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in United States?

To book me in United States, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Birthday, Family reunion, Bachelor/Bachelorette, Friends gathering and Romantic night. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
