Get to know me better
I'm a former restaurant chef turned private chef and traveler. Please allow me to turn your home into a fine dining restaurant for the evening.
John Richard is a former fine dining chef, non-profit kitchen manager, touring performer and now makes his way as a private chef, bringing delicious food and wonderful dinner parties to your home.
John Richard cooks simple food with the best ingredients available using French and Italian technique to guide the way. His favorite ingredient is time. No, that isn’t a spelling mistake, we’re referring to "the passing of", not the herb. Chef John Richard knows that the best food in the world takes time. Prosciutto, Parmigiano Reggiano, wine, it takes months for our gardens to come alive, etc... Time is an irreplaceable ingredient.
The menu you order from Pinch Me! Dining will have been created especially for you, by Chef John Richard himself. Free from the overload and distractions of a busy restaurant kitchen, Chef John is able to put his entire focus into your meal. He takes his time doing it “right”, often taking days to complete a single dish.
When you go to a restaurant, your food is rarely prepared by the chef. At Pinch Me! Dining, it is only prepared by the chef.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
Is the #1 way I show the people in my life I care. It's incredible to be able to do this for a living; to bring that same love into people's homes.
I learned to cook at...
I was a stay-at-home dad for a little while before my twins started school and i fell in love with cooking during that time.
A cooking secret...
I just keep it simple... it's no secret.
