The Personal Chef Service is a weekly or bi-weekly service which provides a set number of meals for a household to consume during this period. A typical service would be four meals for two people (a total of 8 portions). A weekly service package of this size would require refrigeration only (no freezing). The goal is to provide restaurant quality meals that are nutritional and price competitive with take-out.
The meals we prepare are balanced and portion controlled. We use organic products, hormone-free meats, etc whenever possible. We tend to stay away from the use of dairy products such as butter and cream. The majority of dishes, when sauced, are done so using vegetables, fruits, nuts and stocks. The menus seldom repeat over the course of a year and tend to be seasonal.
WE CAN ACCOMMODATE DIETARY REQUIREMENTS/RESTRICTIONS.
WE CAN PROVIDE SPECIFICALLY KID-FRIENDLY MEALS.
Every new service begins with an interview to determine any dietary restrictions or goals, what foods are liked and disliked. Barring any dietary requirements, the meals usually consist of approximately 6 ounces of protein, 4 ounces of a starch or grain and 4 ounces of a green vegetable. Additional portions, extra meals and requests such as desserts can always be accommodated.
All foods are prepared off-site and delivered to your home. The meals are packed, labeled and ready to store in your refrigerator. The service is priced based on time and material. A typical 2-person/4-meal package will generally run between $145 and $160. Pricing will vary slightly depending upon the price of the food being used any given week. (shrimp being more costly than chicken for example).
