I craft bespoke Italian and Mediterranean dining experiences with tradition, precision, and creativity.

Chef John

I’m an Italian chef with over 20 years of experience in hospitality. I fell in love with cooking early on in my grandmother’s kitchen, where I learned to respect tradition, quality ingredients, and authentic flavour. Over the past 12 years in London, I’ve worked in high-level kitchens and developed a style that combines Italian and Mediterranean roots with modern techniques, international influences, and refined presentation. Today, I create tailor-made menus for intimate dinners, celebrations, and special events, always focusing on exceptional food, professionalism, and a memorable experience at your table.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Greater London?

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 92.40 GBP, 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, Italian, Mediterranean and Seafood/Fish. 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.
