Chef John

I’m an NYC-based private chef with 25 years in restaurant kitchens and 19 years cooking directly for private clients. My focus is straightforward: I take high-end ingredients—like prime seafood, Wagyu beef, and fresh produce—and build clean, precise flavors across multi-course tasting menus.

Whether I’m hosting an intimate dinner party, setting up custom weekly prep, or leading a hands-on cooking masterclass, I deliver a personalized, high-level experience with thoughtful pacing, consistency, and hospitality from start to finish.
