Step 1:
Choose Your Menu

Personalize your menu to fit your preferences and dietary needs. Select from the Chef's menu of guaranteed-to-delight dishes, request family favorites, or explore new cuisines. Your chef will bring your culinary visions to life.

We provide a shopping list for your menu, saving you time on grocery runs. Order grocery delivery to save even more time.

Step 2:
Book Your Chef

All Chefs are carefully vetted for skill, experience, safety, and professionalism - any Chef you select will impress you and your taste buds.

Our chefs set their own hourly rates (average $30/hour), bringing you top-quality food for less than the cost of eating out. Whether it's a one-time treat or regular weekly meal prep, you control the frequency and duration of the chef's visits.

Step 3:
Enjoy Restaurant-Quality Meals

All your dishes will be completed to your specification, and left neatly stored in your fridge with heating/finishing instructions. Come home to a sparkly clean kitchen and fresh, delicious food to enjoy throughout the week.
