Common Questions

How far in advance do I need to book for events?

Special events require a 3-week advance booking to ensure proper planning and ingredient sourcing. This gives us time to create your custom menu and secure the best ingredients.

How does weekly meal prep work?

I come to your home every Monday to prepare a minimum of 15 fresh meals for the week. I bring all ingredients, cook everything from scratch in your kitchen, portion and label each meal, and clean up completely before leaving.

Do I need to be home while you cook?

Not necessarily. Many clients provide access and go about their day—work from home, run errands, or relax. We’ll arrange whatever works best for your schedule.

What dietary approaches can you accommodate?

Everything from vegan to carnivore and all points between. I’m experienced in paleo, AIP, low-oxalate, Mediterranean, macro tracking, and more. Your meals are customized to your specific needs and preferences.

What areas of Tampa do you serve?

I serve the greater Tampa Bay area for in-home chef services. Contact me to confirm availability in your specific neighborhood.

How is pricing structured?

Pricing varies based on your specific needs, menu selections, and service type. Contact me directly for a personalized quote tailored to your requirements. Complete transparency—no hidden fees.
