“Partnering with Butcher Block Culinary Consulting was one of the best decisions we made during our restaurant relocation. As a small business owner, we know food—but having a trusted consultant allowed us to step back from the day-to-day operations and focus where we’re strongest. They reorganized our kitchen for efficiency, standardized and costed our recipes, and helped lock in portions, food and labor costs—all critical to building a sustainable foundation. His leadership during our soft opening and mentorship throughout the process gave us the clarity and confidence we needed. We highly recommend Butcher Block to anyone looking to elevate their operation with a partner they can trust." -AnnaMarie, Owner, Gino’s Italian Joint
"Working with Butcher Block Culinary Consulting was a game-changer for our Taste of Texas event. From curating the perfect menu to ensuring seamless execution, Chef John brought an unmatched level of expertise and professionalism. Our guests were blown away by the perfectly paired courses, and the evening ran flawlessly thanks to his meticulous planning. If you're looking for a culinary consultant who understands fine dining, wine pairings, and the business side of hospitality, look no further!"
