Our Offerings
At the heart of my Charlotte-based personal chef services is a deep commitment to quality, thoughtfully sourced ingredients prepared with intention and craft to create amazing food. Every dish I create is rooted in the belief that food can be medicine, and that healing, joy, and connection begin around the table.
We offer services from weekly meals to Special Events and Classes and even a fully personalized meal service based on a naturopathic consultation. Whether you're looking to support your health and lifestyle through delicious, thoughtfully prepared meals weekly, or have a stress-free fun event with great food—I've got you covered, all made with the freshest seasonal ingredients, sourced locally whenever possible.

Weekly Meal Service

Our Weekly Meal Service is designed for individuals and families who want to eat vibrant, nourishing meals throughout the week without the stress of planning, shopping, or cooking. Whether you’re navigating food sensitivities, trying to eat more mindfully, or just don’t have the time to cook, this offering brings wellness and ease into your kitchen.
Here’s how it works:
  • Initial Consultation: We’ll connect to discuss how the meal service can best work for you and go over your goals, preferences, lifestyle, and any dietary needs or restrictions as well as logistics and scheduling.
  • Custom Weekly Menu: Each week, I’ll craft a personalized menu based on our consultation just for you, inspired by the best seasonal ingredients available from local farmers markets and purveyors, submitted for your edits and approval. 
  • Farm-Fresh Ingredients: I’ll do all the sourcing for you—shopping produce, meats, and goods from local farms, and markets.
  • Home-Cooked Meals: I prepare your meals in your kitchen at a scheduled time each week and leave them ready to heat and eat in your fridge with clear instructions.
  • Clean-up: I leave your kitchen clean as if I were never there except now your fridge is full of delicious, personalized meals and your kitchen smells wonderful. 
  • Rinse and Repeat: You enjoy your meals and I'll check back in a few days with a proposed menu for the next week. We’ll touch base regularly to make sure everything is working for you, fine-tune your preferences, and evolve with your needs.
​
This service is a wonderful fit if you follow a specific nutritional protocol—like vegetarian, paleo, gluten-free, sugar-free, or low-sodium—or if you simply want to eat more whole, nourishing meals with ease.

Special Event Services​

Food brings people together, and I’m here to help make your next gathering deeply memorable—and incredibly delicious.

  • Holiday & Special Events (up to 30 guests): From seasonal spreads to beautifully crafted hors d’oeuvres, I’ll work with you to create a nourishing and festive menu tailored to your gathering.
  • In-Home Cooking Classes (1–12 people): Gather your friends and learn to cook hands-on in your own kitchen. From Classic Southern Comfort to Vietnamese Street Food, I’ll share techniques, recipes, and tips in a fun, engaging setting.

Food Is Your Medicine Program

In partnership with Dr. Stephanie Mottola, ND of Wild River Wellness (who also happens to be my wife), we offer a deeply personalized program that blends delicious food with naturopathic care. Together, we help you identify the foods that fuel your health—and those that may be holding you back—so you can feel your best from the inside out. This is where the science of healing meets the art of nourishing meals.

Basic Food Is Your Medicine Program includes:
  • A comprehensive naturopathic consultation with Dr. Mottola to explore your symptoms, health history, lifestyle, current eating patterns, sensitivities, and your relationship with food.
  • A whole-body functional assessment to identify areas in need of nutritional support including functional and specialty labs (if needed) and a follow up appointment to review
  • A custom “Food Is Your Medicine” plan designed to align with your unique needs and goals
  • Weekly Meal Service by Chef John to bring that plan to life through flavorful, healing meals prepared just for you

Complete Food Is Your Medicine Program adds:
  • A tailored natural therapy plan with high-quality supplements to help your body restore balance and thrive
  • Follow-up consultations to assess progress and adjust your wellness and nutrition plan as your needs evolve
​
This is a transformative offering for anyone seeking to address chronic symptoms, prevent disease, or simply move toward a more vibrant and grounded version of themselves.
​Let’s reconnect you with food that heals, delights, and supports your life.
Whether you’re here for ease, celebration, or a deeper journey into wellness—I'm here to cook for you.
