About Chef J.R.
Having spent 20 years in private service, I deeply appreciate discretion. Your space is sacred! HNW, UHNW, A-List celebs, C-suite execs, families, couples; formal or informal: I’ve seen it all, know my place, and can read a room!
From being the executive chef of a 4 diamond vegan resort with our own organic farm to being a server in a NY Times 4-star restaurant, I have a proven passion for my craft and the chops to prove it (pardon the pun). I was classically trained at Johnson & Wales University, went on to work in a number of top tier restaurants (and apprenticed in many more), and continue to take classes in other countries every year.
I study nutrition as a hobby and keep up to date on culinary and dietary trends as they emerge. Don’t be afraid to share your deepest and darkest nutritional desires with me! I’m here to pamper you and meet your needs, not to judge or try to direct your path!
