FEES AND SERVICES

Personal Chef Service fees include:

• Initial assessment in your home to evaluate your likes and dislikes, allergies, & dietary goals
• Custom recipe research and meal planning based on that assessment
• Grocery shopping on the day of service to maximize freshness of ingredients
• Use of the “Chef’s Portable Pantry,” stocked with items used in small amounts (dried herbs, mustards, vinegar, flour, salt, etc) designed to avoid purchasing excess grocery items at the customer’s expense
• Preparation of meals, prepared on prearranged cookdate, in the safety of your own home
• Complete packaging, labeling and storing of all menu items in your refrigerator and/or freezer
• Specific warming instructions for all items
• Ongoing feedback of menu items, designed to continually fine tune the service to keep you thrilled with your dinner choices

*Above pricing does not include cost of groceries or containers

Private, in-home cooking lessons and small dinner party preparation available. Call for pricing as these services are highly variable, based on menu and time involved.

If the above plans don't meet your needs, I will customize one that does.

Let me give you an example of the most popular plan, a 5X4:

5 entrees: A fish entree, a pork entree, a chicken entree, a pasta entree, and a vegetarian entree, all have 4 servings each. In addition, I will prepare 5 side dishes to go with these specific entrees, say a potato dish, a rice dish, and 3 vegetable dishes, all 4 servings each. This is just an example to show you how a 5 x 4 plan makes 20 complete meals.

Container fee will be discussed during consultation, as it varies depending upon your needs. You will have the option of environmentally friendly reusable Pyrex containers that will be yours to keep, or disposable Versatainers. I will bring along samples of each.
