Questions

Everything You Need to Know

What areas do you serve?

We are based in Orland Park and serve the greater Chicago area, including the south and west suburbs. If you are unsure whether you are in range, just reach out — we will let you know right away.

How does weekly meal prep work?

Choose a plan, and each week your chef sends you that week's custom menu. You pick your meals through your personal selection link, and everything arrives fresh, chilled, and labeled with reheat instructions. Open, heat, and enjoy.

When do I need to pick my meals?

Menu selections close Thursdays at 10pm so we can shop and prep everything fresh for the week. Selections after the deadline roll to the following week.

Can you work around allergies and dietary needs?

Absolutely. Every menu is custom, so allergies, intolerances, and preferences are built in from the start — gluten free, dairy free, high protein, low carb, and more. Tell us once and every week is tailored accordingly.

Do you cater private events and dinner parties?

Yes — private dinner parties, celebrations, and catering are a core part of what we do. Your chef designs the menu around your occasion and handles everything from preparation to service.

How does pricing work?

Meal prep is priced per meal with volume discounts as you add more meals, secured with a deposit. Private events are quoted based on your menu and party size. Full details are on our pricing page.
