I bring the world to your table with dynamic, ingredient-driven cooking.

Chef John

My cooking has been shaped by an adventurous career that’s taken me from Chicago to Brazil, France, Denmark, Italy, Spain, New York City, and beyond. Along the way I’ve cooked over open fires, refined classic techniques, and built a style that’s both critically recognized and deeply personal.

Every meal I serve is a journey through the places I love most—layered with complex yet approachable spices and designed to feel like an experience, not just dinner. I cook for families and friends, corporate clients, and brand activations, always focused on bringing warmth, care, and unforgettable flavor to your table.

Let’s plan your event

Chef John
My secret is flavors and textures built from the best products in the world—guided by vision.

What you can expect when you cook with me.

I cook with passion, precision, and feeling.

Cooking is a way of being for me—an expression of passion, creativity, and technique, guided by intuition and built around the feeling I want each course to create.

I learned by traveling, listening, and doing the work.

I learned to cook from Italian grandmas, fishermen in Brazil, and my mom’s family in Mexico, plus a lot of trial and error in kitchens around the globe—including time connected to Noma in Europe.

I let the ingredients lead—and I add vision.

In my kitchen, I focus on flavors and textures that highlight the best products I can source, and I bring a clear vision to every plate so the experience feels intentional from the first bite to the last.

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 251.33 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.

I cook Mediterranean and Chef's special. 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.
