I didn’t know that I could hire a chef for just one night.
I wanted to throw a dinner party to celebrate my husband’s big promotion.
I called around to find a caterer that could handle my party, but no one wanted to work for a party that had less than twenty people. I put meal prep into the search engine instead of prepared meals, and it surprised me to find different restaurants that offered the help of a chef for one night. The Meal Prep Service was a bit expensive, but it included the cost of the chef’s time. I hired a chef to do meal prep for my party, knowing the food was going to be perfect. They served each course right on time, and they prepared it fresh. There was nothing like freshly cooked shrimp in a delicious, tangy tomato sauce. The chef who did all the meal prep was a professional who went well above my expectations. They thrilled my husband with how the food was. It surprised him that I had taken such an effort to make this day special for him. When he asked about the chef, I explained how it was actually a mistake I made while searching for prepared meals. He laughed, kissed my forehead, and said, ‘that’s my baby!’, while thanking me for the party. I’m going to need to remember about the meal prep service we have in our area the next time I want to give a fancy party for friends and family. I had no mess and no clean-up because it was all done in my kitchen. I just sat back and enjoyed the party.
