!Once you decide you want to explore the possibility of using a personal chef you would call and make an appointment with Chef John, who will come to your home to meet with you one-on-one. This way the chef can learn what you like to eat, and how you like to eat, whether you have any medical situations that need to be addressed in the kitchen, whether you have any allergies or food sensitivities, or whether there are certain foods you just don’t like - like Brussels Sprouts - if you don’t like them, they’ll never cross your threshold... If you want a low-fat or low-sodium program, that’s no problem. All you need to do is tell him what you want.
Armed with this information, Chef John will customize menus for you that reflect these guidelines, and assist you in selecting an initial set of entrées for your first cooking date.
Your chef will also determine what appliance you would like to use when reheating your meals, and if you wish to use your microwave, or your conventional oven, your meals will be packaged appropriately. He will also determine whether you wish your meals to be packaged in individual servings, service for two or “family style”.  
 On an agreed upon date your chef will shop for the freshest ingredients, come to your home - with his own pots and pans and cooking utensils, and your groceries. He will prepare your meals “in the safety of your own kitchen”, package and label your meals, and leave you instructions on what to do with your meals in order to enjoy them at the peak of their flavor - he’ll clean up after himself, and leave your house smelling wonderful, your food stored, and your kitchen clean. 
Chef John will be happy to help you determine just how often you will want to schedule his Personal Chef Service to best serve your needs. There is no long term contracts and we’ll make sure it supports your busy lifestyle without putting any pressure on you. Depending on how many hungry people are in your household, service can be scheduled weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. I also offer special occasion services.
Menus change seasonally and may be adjusted between cooking dates, so boredom is never an issue!
