Chef John Paul has spent many years making people happy with food. After over 10 years of work in various restaurants and catering operations, he has gathered a wide range of skills with a large variety of cooking styles. While working in the industry, he graduated with an Associate’s in Culinary Arts and a Personal Chef Certificate from Secchia Institute of Culinary Education in Grand Rapids, MI (2019).

In 2021, John began train and work in the large hibachi restaurant chain (you know the one, rhymes with Heni-Bana). Many hours were spent there honing his skills and smoothening his show. After a short amount of time, John was being requested by many customers because he could cook individualistically, be personally engaging, and make music with his cooking tools. When he was asked to do a private dinner from some patrons, John decided to buy a grill and go into business for himself.
