Don't mistake our silence for apathy! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! We are so lucky to have you take up the slack in our kitchen, in such an expert way. Everyone here finally looks forward to meals. Everything has been wonderful! - Amy

* A little over six months ago, my wife and I decided that my weight was out of control due primarily to my eating habit; i.e., types of food and portion sizes. We met with Chef Lynda at "Rent-A-Chef". She asked all the right questions, concerning likes and disliked us to fill out a very extensive questionnaire. A week later she shows up at our door with a week of lunches and dinners. All low salt, low fat and low cholesterol; all prepared by a gourmet chef with flavoring you would expect form a fine restaurant. Perfect portion sizes, perfect herbs and spices. All in a microwavable container that made it a snap to cook, eat and clean up. What a way to diet!!! The results are even more fantastic - down "twenty-four" pounds in less than eight months.
Another advantage to having your own personal chef is flexibility in having guest. Just last week we had a family get together with most members coming from out of town. So cleaning was a top priority which didn't leave much time for cooking. Chef Lynda to the rescue!
We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rent-A-Chef services to anyone. The service and food quality is most outstanding along with a wonderful and flexible staff to work with - Sheila & Bill Tyda
* Dear Chef Lynda,
Now I know what "cooks’ holiday" means! I did not cook this week, and my conscience is untroubled. Rather than pizza and McDonald's , my three children ate their way through entrees voted variously "Really Good" (fajitas)" , "are there any more egg rolls" and "this is better than yours, Mom (spaghetti)". I appreciate the variety of your cuisine, and thoughtful introduction of different tastes in child-friendly preparations.
Similarly, Paul and I could not believe that such fabulous food was available to us without making reservations, getting gussied-up, and using the cars valet key. We cannot pick a favorite from the three entrees you prepared. Each was delicious, and complemented by perfect side dishes. We exercised no self-restraint in polishing off every last speck.
Therein lies the one and only problem- us (the adults) that is). Paul and I battle body fat daily. At our respective ages (he would be quick to point out that I am older than he), we gain weight just by clearing the table after our children have eaten. For our next and subsequent orders, we would be grateful if butter and oils were used exceedingly sparingly. Also, and in the same vein, we would love to experiment with "deconstructed" entrees. For example, you might provide sauteed shrimp, grilled chicken breast, roasted vegetables, goats cheese medallions, salad greens hummoss, tabbouleh, pita loaves and herbed pasta in a single delivery. Then as the whim moves us, we can combine these foods to make and embellished salad, awesome sandwich, or fortified dish.
I am tickled that we met. Let me know what you think about "deconstructed entrees". I will ask my nanny to deliver a $125 check to you later today as a deposit for our next order. If possible, I would like a delivery of an equivalent amount of food either late afternoon Monday or Wednesday. I look forward to hearing from you. - Best Regards - Amy Carbone
