What is a Personal Chef?

A Personal Chef provides high quality, reasonably priced meals, custom designed to your individual tastes and dietary needs. A Personal Chef allows you to regain time otherwise spent shopping for and preparing your own foods or eating out.

Who needs a Personal Chef?

Anyone who wants to enjoy healthy, delicious meals on their own time schedule in the comfort of their own home will benefit from having a Personal Chef. Busy professionals, retirees, new parents or those just home from the hospital are typical clients.

If you are…

  • A driven professional with no time to eat right
  • A two-career family where no one cooks or has the time
  • A family on-the-run who resorts to fast food out of desperation
  • Realizing a weight loss goal or have special dietary needs
  • Newly married or a new parent
  • Recovering from illness or surgery
  • Or just plain tired of planning, shopping, and cooking
    …then you need a Personal Chef!

How does it work?

Your service begins with a FREE, no obligation consultation in your home or over the phone. You tell me all about your tastes, what you like and dislike. We will discuss any allergies or dietary restrictions you may have as well as how you would like your meals packaged for heating. I will then establish a schedule that meets your requirements for meal deliveries. All meal preparations will be done in a clean, kosher kitchen with strict adherence to the laws of Kashrus.

On your cook date I will:

  • Shop for the freshest produce and quality ingredients
  • Prepare your complete meals
  • Package and label your meals with complete heating instructions

Your refrigerator/freezer will be stocked full of meals. Just heat and enjoy!

Is it Expensive?

Compared to take-out or dining out at a nice restaurant, you definitely get more for your money with the convenience and quality of gourmet, customized, home-cooked meals. Can anyone put a price tag on time saved? When you consider the time it takes to shop, cook and clean up for each meal, the cost of enjoying a fine home-cooked gourmet meal is quite reasonable. Also, think about all the ingredients you need to purchase for a recipe that you don’t need and never use. A Personal Chef only charges you for the ingredients used in your dishes.
