How Does This Work?

We love food and want to make sure you are getting exactly what you want from our services. We first like to meet with potential clients to determine what your needs are. Are there any food allergies? Are you trying to lose weight? Wanting to add nutrient rich, antioxidant filled foods to your diet? Are you a vegetarian  or a meat eater? Do you want to eat more organic foods? Hate mushrooms? Love spicy food? Are you wanting a week's worth of food on a regular basis or just once in awhile? Call or email us to set up a FREE consultation.

  • OUR food philosophy

    We are firm believers that fresh food is where it's at. The difference in taste between a tomato plucked from the vine yesterday and one that travelled 3,000 miles in the past week is drastically different. Whenever possible we try to use local, fresh and organic ingredients. We believe that healthy food can taste like you're being bad. We believe that pumpkins are not just for pies, that vegetables can be gobbled up by picky children, that Indian food can be had outside of a restaurant, and that gourmet food can be affordable and easy.

  • CAN I AFFORD THIS?

    Depending on what foods you order, and how much, the average serving works out to be $10-18/serving, more or less, depending on time and ingredients. It is comparable to what you would spend eating out and there is the added bonus of eating homemade meals without the fuss of chopping onions, and scrubbing pots and pans, or doing the grocery shopping.

  • how does this work?

    Once we speak more about what your specific needs are in a free consultation we can get going! You decide on your menu, and line up a time frame that works for you, and your work is done. Our chef will do the grocery shopping, prepare the food in your kitchen or in our commercial kitchen, and leave you reheating instructions. It's as easy as that! Or if you like surprises, we can switch the menu  up every week if we know your likes and dislikes.  Check out our sample menus.

  • what is the average customer like?

    We cook for anyone who loves food! Our average customers are busy families and professionals who would rather spend quality time with their families than in the kitchen. We can also cook for singles, elderly parents,  groups of neighbors wanting to split the cost, tired new Moms and people on restrictive diets. 

    Our small event catering is also a great option for office luncheons, family picnics, showers and dinner parties.

  • what areas do you cover?

    The majority of our customers are in Durham, Chapel Hill and Raleigh, but we serve the entire greater Triangle area. Delivery to Durham and Chapel Hill is free of charge, and a small fee is added to customers elsewhere in the Triangle.

  • how often do you PROVIDE SERVICES?

    Most of our clients choose to have us deliver food  once a week or bi-monthly but we can deliver food as needed at any time. 

  • do you cater parties?

    Yes! We will gladly cater business meetings, romantic dinners,  holiday meals, christenings, showers, family picnics, any event really. We love to take on the smaller jobs that some of the larger catering companies won't.  We take the hassle out of the preparation and clean up so you can focus on your guests.  We also offer customized cooking classes.  Check out our small event catering ideas found to the right!
