Frequently Asked Questions
Meal Prep Questions
Wait, you cook in MY kitchen?
Yes! While other meal prep services offer a limited selection of premade meals for delivery, we create a personalized menu specifically for YOU. Cooking in your home allows us to select groceries and menu items that fit your budget and nutritional needs. It also helps us to confer cost-savings to you since we don’t need to rent or maintain a commercial kitchen. And we help the environment by utilizing your reusable containers! Oh, and we’ll leave your kitchen sparkling clean, it’s a win-win-win-win.
Can I afford a personal chef?
Tell us your budget, and we’ll try our hardest to create a plan that works for you! Unlike other meal prep services, we offer a huge variety of menu items, grocery sources, and schedules to provide a service that fits your finances. If a weekly service isn’t for you, we’re happy to chat about bi-weekly or monthly options as well! We’ll get creative, so you can get fed.
Everyone in my family likes different food. Is meal prep right for us?
Yes! Our dietitian and trained chefs have the knowledge and creativity to build menus that work for the whole family. It’s one of the many reasons that makes our service so unique. We pride ourselves on being able to make tasty food for those with the most complex needs.
I’m gluten-free/vegan/have serious allergies/adjusting to a new medical diagnosis.
Not a problem for the Camellia team! Our dietitian is equipped to tailor your meal prep to your exact medical needs. Let us help you heal with food!
Other Questions
Do you offer catering?
Yes and no. We don’t work out of a commercial kitchen, so we aren’t legally allowed to bring food to another space for consumption. However, if you’re hosting an event in your home and are okay with us cooking onsite, we’d be happy to work with you! For large events like weddings, we may be able to secure commercial space in advance. Just ask us!
