Do you love gourmet and home cooked meals, but don’t
have the time to prepare it yourself? Many people
who live in the Bay Area have very busy lives and
would like to eat healthy home cooked meals without
shopping for groceries, laboring over a hot stove or
cleaning-up.
Jordan River Catering is pleased to prepare
custom-prepared meals for busy professionals,
families, new moms and dads, and seniors who would
like assistance with cooking preparation or
planning.
We offer several packages, depending on your needs.
Prices include menu planning, travel, grocery
shopping service, meal preparation in our kitchen or
yours, complete heating and serving instructions.
How it works
The most wonderful thing about personal chef
services is that they are personal. Chef Kent meets
with and interviews all clients. He works with you
to learn your tastes and preferences before custom
designing your menus.
Consultation
Consultation consists of a no-obligation assessment
of your personal chef needs in the comfort of your
home or our office. What do you are your preferences
and dislikes? Do you have any allergies? Are you
trying to follow a special diet? If you decide to
give agree upon services, you decide how many meals
you want and how often.
Menu Planning
Next comes menu planning. The chef will make
suggestions based on your tastes and dietary
requirements. After you approve a menu we set a cook
date and prepare grocery and equipment lists. And
after each set of meals, we review the menus and
hone in on the dishes that made you happiest.
Cooking
After cooking your meals at our commercial kitchen
they are packaged, and we deliver your meals to your
home at an agreed upon time. All items are labeled
with ingredient lists and simple heating
instructions.

Packaging
Entrees are packaged in single, double, or family
servings in either reusable glass containers or
disposable containers. There is a one-time $50
container fee on your first order for reusable glass
containers used by Jordan River Catering — yours to
own. Disposable containers are replaced as needed
and will appear on your grocery invoice.
Payment
There is a non-refundable grocery deposit and chef's
fee due in advance of the cook date. I will leave a
grocery receipt with your change or an invoice if
the cost of groceries is more than the deposit
amount. If you like, you may leave a check for the
upcoming cooking date on the day I am cooking. |
