The chef shops and cooks in your kitchen
Your chef sources groceries fresh the morning of, arrives with everything they need, and cooks in your kitchen. You don't need to prep or clean beforehand — just clear a little counter space.

You eat — they clean up
For meal prep, the chef packs and labels everything. For events, they plate and serve. Either way, cleanup is included: counters wiped, dishes done, trash out. The kitchen leaves cleaner than it started.
That's it. Pick a night.
Flat pricing, groceries in, kitchen left spotless. Reply within 2 hours.
