Services Offered
Customized Menu Planning
Our goal is to make each meal the very best you have ever tasted! In order to accomplish this we must know about your preferences and your dietary needs. We have the ability to prepare gourmet meals to your specifications as well as preparing favorite recipes you may have.
When you hire a Specialties Gourmet Personal Chef, the chef will come to your home and conduct an interview and complete a detailed questionnaire. Each menu lists entrees and some side dishes for a two-week period and is presented to you for your approval prior to your scheduled cooking day.
Complete Grocery Shopping
On your scheduled cooking day, we will shop for the groceries needed for the meals on your menu. We will purchase all of the items needed and the cost of these groceries are incorporated into the charge for the service.
- Freshest Vegetables
On your scheduled cooking day, we will select the freshest vegetables available for your meals. If at all possible, we will use produce that was harvested that day.
- Freshest Fish
We will select the freshest fish available for your meals. If fish is available that was flown in on your cooking day, we will select that fish, even if we drive to three markets to get the very best!
- Top Quality Meats
The meats we select are of the finest quality available. The cuts we purchase are the freshest and most tender available. No frozen meat here! We offer beef, veal, lamb, pork, turkey, and chicken entrees.
- Freshest Herbs & Seasonings
The herbs used in your meals are fresh and harvested that day if possible. If the herb is not in season, we will purchase dried herbs and crush them when we use them. We grind our seasonings fresh each day and only as much as we need. These practices prevent the flavorful oils from evaporating while the herbs and spices sit on a shelf waiting for use.
In-Home Meal Preparation
Once you have approved your menu, we will schedule a day to cook in your home. We arrive with all of the utensils we need to complete your meals. We cook the food in your home, then package and refrigerate or freeze each item, and leave thawing and reheating instructions. By following these instructions your meals will taste like they were just prepared!
Storage and Cleanup
We leave your kitchen clean and home smelling wonderful. You simply reheat the meals and enjoy the free time, the clean kitchen, and the fabulous food.
