Services

After our initial meeting, where you fill out a food questionnaire, I design a menu for 1-2 weeks of entrees.  Once you approve the menu, we choose a "cook day".  On that day I do the necessary shopping and come to your home with my own equipment.  Once there, I prepare all of the entrees and sides on the menu and leave them in the refrigerator or freezer with directions for heating.  I clean the kitchen so that when you come home, the only way that you know that I was there is from the wonderful aromas left behind.  You just heat, eat and enjoy!!

Services include: weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly dinner service, small event catering, dinner parties, cocktail parties and children's parties.

frequently asked questions



What is a Personal Chef Service?
A personal chef service is one that is here to help you with time.  On the cooking day, I do the necessary shopping, come to your home, prepare the agreed upon meals and clean up.  All that is left for you to do is to heat up your entree and add any special touch that you want.  Full instructions are left for each dish, as well as suggestions to round out your meal.
What if I am trying to lose weight or am on a special diet?
I can cook low fat, low carb, low calorie, and diabetic menues.  My service will be based on your needs and requests.
What areas do you service?
I serve the Hampton, Poquoson, Tabb, York County and Newport News areas.
How are prices determined?
Cost is determined by the number of adults in your family, type of menu requested, and the frequency of service.
