You can subscribe to as many chefs as you want. Since it's a weekly subscription, you pay up front each week.

Here's an example:

My subscription to Chef 1: Monday: 1 meal - Wednesday: 1 meal - Friday: 2 meals

My subscription to Chef 2: Tuesday: 1 meal - Thursday: 1 meal

As you see, you can mix and match to get a great deal of variety. Currently our system accommodates both pickups and deliveries, but it'll depend on the chefs if he or she can deliver or not.

How much would you pay for this kind of service? We're working to keep prices down. Tipping is also not expected, should be pretty affordable.




I like the idea. As many others have already said, I think approx. $10-15 per meal would be ideal.

Just a suggestion: I think you should really market this service to businesses and office-crowds for breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. My last office was in an affluent area where the walkable lunch and dinner options were Subway and 20 or so high-end sit-down restaurants. Killing an hour and spending $40 on lunch wasn't a viable option and Subway got old after about three weeks. I often worked from 7am-9pm and would have gladly paid $30-40 per day to have a breakfast, lunch, and dinner prepared and delivered to me to avoid the monotony of Subway, the price of "creative French fusion" cafes, or the time-commitment of a Steakhouse lunch - and I know I wasn't the only person in that situation.
