I cook globally inspired, health-forward meals with a farm-to-table soul.

Chef John

I’m a private chef with 6 years of experience cooking around the world, and I currently work on TV productions, retreats, corporate events, and for high net worth families. My style is farm-to-table and locally sourced, with a focus on balance, freshness, and big flavor—and I tailor every meal to the occasion, theme, and preferences.

I love giving a healthy twist to classic cuisines—from Mediterranean and Asian to French, Italian, Moroccan, and Indian. I specialize in Paleo, Keto, plant-based, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and Low FODMAP cooking, and I’m happy to accommodate allergies and dietary preferences while building the best menu for your event based on season and budget.

Plan my menu with me

Chef John
Cooking is my way to channel creative energy—I love smelling a vegetable or a spice and balancing flavor with nutrition in every meal.

Here’s what you can expect when you dine with me.

I balance creativity, flavor, and nutrition

Cooking is my way to channel creative energy. I build dishes by really understanding ingredients—smelling a vegetable, exploring spices, and dialing in balance so every plate is both delicious and nourishing.

I learned by doing—at home and in restaurants

I learned to cook at home and in restaurants, guided mostly by mentors with a real passion and gift for cuisine rather than in a classroom. That hands-on path shaped how I cook today: practical, adaptable, and focused on what people truly love to eat.

My “secret” is bright, savory balance

My secret in the kitchen is balancing umami, acid, and freshness. I rely on lemon zest, slow-roasted vegetables, and fresh herbs as simple, powerful hacks to build sauces and dishes that taste vibrant and complete.

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 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, Mediterranean, Local, Seafood/Fish and Italian. 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. 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.

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