Chef John

I spent four years cooking at Jack Fry’s, where I built a deep foundation in protein cookery, sauces, seasonal ingredients, and fine-dining execution. My approach to private dining is straightforward: I write thoughtful menus, cook with disciplined technique, and plate with care—so you get a restaurant-quality experience at home without losing the warmth of having someone cook personally for you.

For me, cooking is the discipline of turning good ingredients, technique, and instinct into an experience.

What you can expect when you dine with me

I cook with discipline and instinct

For me, cooking is the discipline of turning good ingredients, technique, and instinct into an experience—so every course feels intentional, balanced, and satisfying.

I’m trained in fine-dining execution

I’ve been cooking my entire life, and at Jack Fry’s I learned the art of fine cuisine under the tutelage of many experienced and educated chefs—skills I bring to every menu, sauce, and plate.

I know when to trust technique—and when to trust instinct

My secret in the kitchen is knowing when to trust technique and when to trust instinct, so the food feels both precise and personal.

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 189 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 Chef's special and Local. 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.
