Dear Fellow Foodservice Colleague,
We at Tone Brothers, Inc. Have had the distinct pleasure of working with Chef
John DiGiovanni for the past five years. Chef John has afforded us the
opportunity to have a “Chef on Staff”. Chef John has supported us with numerous
projects positively influencing our sales. Chef John brings a professional “nuts
and bolts” approach to our biggest issue as a manufacturer, raising awareness
through continued training and usage of spice products.
Chef John has an innate ability to connect with his audience when presenting
product usage’s and ideas to operators or product training for distributor and
broker sales personnel. We consider Chef John an integral part of our sales and
marketing team and a value added benefit in supporting our foodservice
distributor partners. His passion and genuine interest in food is quite evident in
the attention to details he brings to every project. More important to Chef John than
details and execution are the actual sales results of his projects.
Chef John has supported us with numerous types of projects of which include;
operator market blitzes, food show featured chef presentations, product
demonstrations at club store events, distributor “kickoff” meetings, DSR training,
Broker training, recipe development and “road show kitchen” design.
Chef John is definitely an asset to our organization. I would recommend Chef
John to any foodservice or retail organization looking to add value to their culinary
and training support services.
Sincerely,
Kenny Shortsleeve
Vice President Sales

Dear Colleagues,
I would like to offer my recommendations for John DiGiovanni as an outstanding
culinary stylist, trainer and consultant. I have known and worked with John for over
15 years and have always been impressed with his creativity with food and
knowledge of the foodservice industry. But more than that, John is an expert
communicator, able to quickly understand his audience and craft his presentation
to fit their needs.
Whether he is training a sales force, teaching a cooking class, creating a menu
application or developing a recipe; John brings an exciting and insightful point of
view to his audience that keeps them interested and involved and always wanting
more! Any project that John is involved with will be richer and more successful
from his input! I highly recommend you consider John DiGiovanni for your next
culinary project!
Cordially,
Bob Ellis

As the owner of an “Off Premise” Catering Company in the Oklahoma City Market,
it is truly impossible to relay the nearly impossible requests we get from time to
time and occasionally they even surpass our capabilities! When often
approached (or sometimes attacked) with a new item or concept, it has been our
good fortune to know John DiGiovanni.
He normally knows the answer. But what is so wonderful about John, is that if he
doesn’t know the real answer, he has such a desire to learn, to taste, to train, that
he will certainly find out. Fun, Knowledgeable, Caring - what more could you ask
for!!!”

Chef John R DiGiovanni is an excellent resource for organizations needing to
develop or promote their restaurant or food service products. He is extremely
personable, knowledgeable and professional in his conduct and job performance
responsibilities. His presentations and product development projects are
thoroughly thought through, well organized and clearly presented. I highly
recommend Chef John to any organization needing menu item or food product
development, product demonstration and presentation, restaurant management
or other food service related consulting.
I have worked extensively with Chef John on a variety of food service related
projects dealing with prepared salads and the fresh-cut produce industry and have
been very pleased with his efforts in support of our company.
My recommendation for him is given without equivocation. Chef John is welcome
to provide you with my contact information should you desire to visit with me
regarding this recommendation.
Sincerely,
Roger Clanton
