Joe Merchanthouse Private Chef

Introduction: **Please be sure to read to the last paragraph ** Hi, I'm Joe and cooking for you is my passion. I am a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, a trained chocolatier, and restaurant chef. I have over 25 years experience in the industry, including living and working in Tuscany for 3 years. I believe in a rich and creative food for the spirit, as well as the body. My cuisine focuses on fresh and seasonal ingredients, executed with elevated and inspired techniques. I love the challenge of meeting new people and delivering food and service above and beyond their expectations, in new and different settings. I would love to talk more directly with you about your specific private chef needs. ***********If some reason you are having trouble reaching me through Thumbtack, or I decline your request on Thumbtack, please email me at my name at gmail. Applies mostly to bigger wedding type jobs as the way Thumbtack is set up I will usually end up paying $50++just to start discussing the job with the client who are in turn shopping around and haven’t decided yet (which is fine!)********** Thank you, and buon appetito! Joe
