Anyone have a personal chef service?

Someone who makes 7 or so dishes a week you can pop in the oven and cook?

How much does it run you?

Every time I go for takeaway. :thumbsup

This chick named Marie Callendar creates some good dishes for me. Costs maybe $3 to $6 per plate?

I just have a live in chef.... No Joke.

Niice. Lucky you.

I wish it would be available here

my brother in law is a personal chef, he has about 5 clients that he cooks for 5 days a week

he gets everything ready and pops it in their fridge with instructions and gets paid MAD money for it

A friend of mines wife is just starting a business like this. She is a chef and is tired of working in restaurants. From what I understand she is going to charge cost of groceries plus $25 per hour for her time. She will cook as few as 7 dishes and as many as 20 in a day, seal them and put them in the freezer so you just have warm them up.

oops double post

What are you eating mostly bro.... Chinese ...Thia ...North American cuisine...??

yes.... my girlfriend.

Anything I want... if he does'nt know how to make it... he finds out. :thumbsup

I have a lady that cleans my house for $15/hr. (usually $45 total) every two or three weeks or so. I am trying to talk her into cooking my favorite meals for me too once a week and cleaning up afterwards.

nah we just eat out. :)
there's nothing i love more than tipping for good service.

I am my own chef. it's more rewarding cooking it your self , if you can read you can read a recipe.

im with you on that one.. but the cleaning sucks

Damn, I'd love to have a a chef to cook for me. I have a wife and she makes the usual stuff like meatloaf, roast, pork chops, but nothing out of the ordinary like a professional chef could make.

I had one when I was in the burbs. It was the best thing EVER. She had a huge variety of things she cooked that I'd get to choose from. Funny story: since I worked at home, I heard of a tornado warning one day. She had to turn everything off in the kitchen and she and the dogs and I headed to the basement until the warning sirens stopped ;)

There's another service I'm looking into now but I have to drive to pick the food up (hell, I can't even get Dominos to deliver here).

Hey Dugmor,
hit me up, would love to hear from you!

has this been answered yet?

ICQ sent.... we have a lot of catching up to do.

I will take some pics of some of the dishes my chef makes... if you have any requests .... let me know. :pimp

My wife and I both cook, she more than I lately though.

This was 6+ years ago and I was paying $300 for 20 meals plus 2 sides and a dessert. MUCH less than eating out, healthier than fast food and less time than cooking it myself :)


I looked at the link I found her from is still up and running:

I cook my own meals. :)

That was going to be my answer as well :thumbsup

Usually those get very boring very fast. I've considered one but buying from different local deli's is way better. Just find the ones that do home-made food ( like European cousines ) and shop there.

Though the best way to do it is to get a gf/wife. You get to eat way more than just potatoes. :-)
