Chef John worked with us to plan, prepare and execute a very special private dinner using fish that we caught the same day. Amazing collaboration and attention to detail at every step, Chef John and his team are of the utmost professionalism, allowing clients to customize the entire experience while bringing his creativity and top of the line skills to the table. Thanks for turning our vision into a truly memorable evening!

Chef John is incredible at what he does! I hosted a health retreat in Bradenton, FL this past weekend and he traveled to our AirBnB to give us an amazing cooking class. He is incredibly easy to communicate with before the event and listened to exactly what I wanted to create the perfect class. I asked that he create a menu of items to teach my girls how simple it actually is to cook great food. He hit the nail on the head! He taught us so many kitchen skills so that they leave not just knowing what to do, but HOW to do it. It was hands on the whole time. He took his time to teach us and gave us the time and space to ask any questions that came up. Not only was this class super helpful, it was FUN and something that my guests talked about for the rest of the weekend. Chef John has the perfect personality for this work because he is knowledgeable and a natural teacher, but he is also calm enough to ensure his guests have space to learn and apply. If you want to learn to cook better, Chef John is your guy!!
