We hired Johnathan as a personal chef about a month ago and have not been disappointed since! His food is consistently delicious. Home cooking with a flare is the best way I can describe it. He took every suggestion I gave him and ran wth it creating fun, diverse dishes that were cost and health conscious. I have very specific nutrition needs, and he was adaptable and flexible working with me and a nutritionist to make meals that were not only nutritious but tailored to my specific needs. Furthermore, he would go above and beyond to make sure I got the menu ahead of time, deliveries as scheduled, and ingredient lists when requested. He is an absolute joy to work with, and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone, weather you just need help getting food on the table once or twice a week, or everyday. Wonderful guy, wonderful chef.

I have with Jonathon Multiple times over the past 10 years. I have never met anyone with a passion like he has for cooking. The passion shows in the food he cooks. We worked for multiple weeks on the set of the hunger games as food stylist and everyone loved the food. I have also worked with Jonathon at two country clubs where he was Executive Chef and Sous Chef. Needless to say this guy knows what he is doing. If your looking for great food and a hard worker look no further. I would hire Jonathon for any catering job or anything to do with food. He is at the top of his game and loves what he does.

Jonathon was my chef at a country club for two years and always did a fine job. He is a good man he always did what he said he would do and he cooked some mighty good food. I recommend him for any type of function, he can cook like down home or fine dining which ever the occasion calls for, give him a try you will be very satisfied. Mort M.

Hired on Thumbtack

I hired Jonathan Moore to prepare meals for my daughter several nights per week. He was very courteous and helpful when we initially met to plan out the logistics and timing of the meal deliveries and was even more helpful with menu planning for her. He took her suggestions and incorporated his ideas into the meals. My daughter has had nothing but good things to say about the quality and tste of the meals and the ease that she has had working with him. He was very conscious of cost, something that is not easy to do when preparing meal for only one person, but did not skimp on quality in doing so. I would highly recommend him as a personal chef and look forward to working with him again in the future.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I generally charge $20-$25 per hour for my services depending on the details of the request. Compensation for any additional staff needed is negotiated based also on the service level needed. If the service is continuous over a period of time I like to figure out an average cost based on hours required to provide service and then move to a set biweekly rate to ensure consistency, and transparent fair pricing for my client.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I've cooked since i was a child when i would assist my mom in the kitchen. As i got older i enjoyed BBQing and cooking out with friends. One day i saw a advertisement for Le Cordon Bleu on TV and i just realized that it only made sense to persue what i enjoy as a career.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Be specific with what exactly it is that you want. In most cases you will be able to find someone who can deliver the exact experience you are looking for. If you have a mental image of what you want be sure to paint that image for your chef/caterer so that nothing is left for interpretation.
