Personal
Chef Service Expands in Woodbury By: Sue
Kaylor You come home from work frazzled, fatigued,
and above all, famished. And what's for supper? Two-day old pepperoni
pizza or leftover takeout Chinese? Not tonight. Instead, there's a choice of
Ginger Glazed Salmon Steaks, Brandied Peach Chicken, Grilled Beef Tenderloin
with Red Wine & Pistachios or Bean Ragout with Cilantro-Cornmeal Dumplings,
all prepared by professional chefs Too good to be true? Staci Motherwell, owner
of Cooks for You - a Woodbury-based business that's part of the growing personal
chef industry - is willing to stock your fridge with these and other such
delicacies. “Washington County is an exciting place to
grow our service. People are
finding that time is at a premium. With today’s busy lifestyles, Cooks for You
provides a healthful alternative to fast food and pre-packaged convenience
foods,” shares Ms. Motherwell. "Personal chef" might call to mind
palatial homes, liveried butlers, and a live-in cook. For Ms. Motherwell, this is just the image
she wants to avoid. Unlike "private chefs" (who more closely fit the
previous description), personal chefs are far more affordable, flexible, and
convenient. Typically, these chefs cook in their client's
home once or twice a month - they shop, bring their own equipment, and cook nine
or 10 meals, which are packaged, labeled, and stored in the freezer or
refrigerator. Ten two-portion meals can cost from $240 to $350 depending on the
region and special considerations (organic is slightly pricier). Through March 31, 2001, Cooks for You will be
offering a 25% discount to first time customers. Call today for a free consultation, 651-331-1136 or email at info@cooksforyou.net! |
