Chef John is from Durham, NC and has been with Maggiano’s since 2002. As a chef, John enjoys working with great people who love and live to cook. After a busy night, he likes to sit down and have a bite to eat with his team and loves to see their passion for food. One of his most memorable experiences was being able to meet a Make-A-Wish child and to see their face when he brought out their favorite dish. The Baked Ziti is Chef John’s favorite dish from Maggiano’s but at home, Chef John usually eats hot dogs or whatever his kids are having.
