The Million Dollar Hustler

Where to begin, so we have been following closely the story of John Haythorne who is a private chef to a billionaire. We found his story fascinating, and some areas predictable in terms of how he ended up working as a private chef for a billionaire.

In terms of being expected in current times, his journey was led this way due to the effects COVID-19 had on our businesses, and our hospitality industry. Although, when COVID-19 first occurred, adapting and overcoming was a challenge, and a survival of the fittest. However, this has been a great exploit for John, he’s currently travelling the world high classed presently located in the French Alps.

While the thought of making money might seem out of reach in the recent economic changes, and disposable income is about non-existent for the majority. We would say Johns hit a good note working, and travelling high classed. Before reaching the Alps this yacht was where our private chef resided for a week in Palma De Mallorca, Spain. A sailing yacht can take you anywhere around the world right?!

Kitchens with a view! So although working privately comes with a 6 am start – 11 pm finish. You simply can’t complain when waking up to views like this! I mean it looks awful, right? How incredible to be sailing in Spain then on to the French Alps.

Before current employment John did a lot of private work in UK then in Spain but slowed down after COVID-19 people stopped travelling. However, he feels the time is right for him to aim higher once again. Winning best restaurant 2 years in a row, getting to number 1 on trip advisor within 3 months at Los Elemento’s Spain where he worked with a good friend and HC Gary Cromie. Although, he enjoyed his experience there he felt his work there was done. Eager for a new adventure to challenge himself leads him to his worldwide travels.

The ingredients used in Johns recipes are locally sourced from local businesses on the day, using an uncapped budget John is able to source at convenience. However, from being a chef for 20 years John has tones of knowledge of how to sustain.
