Personal Chef FAQs

What is a Personal Chef Service?
A Personal Chef will plan, shop for and cook 1-2 weeks worth of meals in your kitchen and package them up for you to eat at your convenience. These meals come complete with heating instructions, a nutritional summary and menu listing. After a brief in-person meeting and a short food questionnaire, your Personal Chef Service will be customized to cater to your specific needs.
