Healthy Eating
Customized Menus
Our
goal is to make each meal the very best you have ever tasted! In order to
accomplish this we must know about your preferences and your dietary needs. We
have the ability to prepare gourmet meals to your specifications as well as
preparing favorite recipes you may have. When you hire
Shilloh Personal Chef Services, Chef Vanda will come to your home and conduct an interview and
complete a detailed questionnaire. We use the results of the interview and the
questionnaire to develop your menus. Each menu lists entrees and some side
dishes and is presented to you for your approval prior to your scheduled cooking
day.
Meal Preparation in Your Home
Once
you have approved your menu, we will schedule a day to cook in your home. We
arrive with all of the utensils we need to complete your meals. We cook the food
in your home, then package and refrigerate or freeze each item, and leave
thawing and reheating instructions. By following these instructions your meals
will taste like they were just prepared! We leave your kitchen clean and home
smelling wonderful. You simply reheat the meals and enjoy the free time, the
clean kitchen, and the fabulous food.
Variety of Healthy Menus
We
have the ability to cook not only to your tastes, but also according to your
dietary requirements. So, if you need a low fat meal and you don’t eat
red meat, don’t worry. You may want to try the turkey and black bean chili, or
maybe you would prefer the lime and cilantro marinated shrimp. If neither of
these entrees appeal to you there are many more you can try. In fact, Over 400
entrees are available, which means you won’t see the same meal twice in a 6
month period unless you request a repeat of favorites.
Complete Grocery Shopping
On
your scheduled cooking day, we will shop for the groceries needed for the meals
on your menu. We will purchase all of the items needed and the cost of these
groceries are incorporated into the service charge.
 Freshest
Vegetables
On
your scheduled cooking day, we will select the freshest vegetables available for
your meals. If at all possible, we will use produce that was harvested that day.
Freshest Fish
We
will select the freshest fish available for your meals. All of the fish will be
purchased the day we cook for you. If fish is available that was flown in on
your cooking day, we will select that fish, even if we drive to three markets to
get the very best!
Top Quality Meats
The
meats we select are of the finest quality available. The cuts are the most
tender, and all are purchased the day we cook for you. No frozen meat here! We
offer beef, veal, lamb, pork, turkey, and chicken entrees.
Freshest Herbs & Spices
The
herbs used in your meals are fresh and harvested that day if possible. If the
herb is not in season, we will purchase dried herbs and crush them when we use
them. We grind our seasonings fresh each day and only as much as we need. These
practices prevent the flavorful oils from evaporating while the herbs and spices
sit on a shelf waiting for use.
