We have been very happy with Jay's food. He cooks for us once a week, covering two meals for our…read morefamily. He is careful, flexible, honest, punctual, and hard-working. He leaves our kitchen just as he found it, except with two wonderful meals in our refrigerator, ready to eat, with detailed reheating instructions. There is always a little bit more than we can eat, so we occasionally invite over a friend to enjoy the food with us, or we have leftovers. What can I say about the food? Healthy, balanced, creative, and delicious. Grilled salmon with rice noodles, vegetables, and Panang sauce; swordfish Napoleans; grilled chicken breasts with rosemary new potatoes, zucchini, and squash; and simpler dishes, like turkey meatloaf with roasted red potatoes and peas, or chicken enchiladas with rice. If there is a problem, it is that the food is too good, and sometimes we can't help having seconds. Yes, it is a bit of a luxury, but really the best thing is that we get to enjoy two family meals during the week, when we would otherwise be just barely getting food on the table. From what I understand, research in positive psychology says that spending money in a way that lowers your stress level and gives you time with people you love delivers more happiness than spending money on possessions. We're finding this to be true.

When my husband and I first decided to find a personal chef we thought "maybe this will help, we…read morecan't keep eating out, it's killing us." Neither of us really knew what a personal chef service looked like. We love cooking but we didn't/don't have time during the week to cook. We hoped we'd get more vegetables into our diet at a minimum. That not eating out would mean less of the white devils (sugar, salt). I reached out to The Skinny Beet in a frenetic and desperate state last December. Since they've entered our lives the sun is shining, the clouds have parted and Mondays are happy (re: they are miracle workers). We have been a weekly client with The Skinny Beet for almost 3 months now. At the end of 1 month we reached out to them and shared a list of each positive benefit directly or indirectly related to hiring them as personal chefs. I would like to share this list with you (reader of my review): 1. My husband and I spend more time together. 2. We portion control better. 3. We work out more (have time to work out). 4. We feel better: less groggy, less irritable, more energy. 5. The food they make tastes flavorful, wholesome and satisfying. We get to eat our favorite cuisines with less of the sugar/salt and more grain/vegetable variety than what we know how to cook. 6. We waste less. 7. The brain space we wasted thinking about what to eat, what to cook, when to go pick things up, crap-I-forgot-an-ingredient --- Poof! Gone. Which, working full time while part time grad school, any and all brain space I can allocate to my work is priceless for me. From Week One: Flexibility with schedule and menu planning was made easy for us - We come home and our kitchen tools and pans lovingly (and somewhat expensively) acquired over time are clean - There are delicious dishes made with quality ingredients ready for devouring in the fridge. We are so grateful for the difference The Skinny Beet has made in our quality of life. Seriously, I wasn't kidding: Miracle Workers.

Well in just a couple hours we were able to cover SO much ground. From making a delicious salsa and homemade chips, to a steak and a chicken, even farro with caramelized onions. Not only did I learn tons of REALLY helpful skills that I've already been implementing, but I had delicious food that lasted me for a handful of meals THAT I HELPED MAKE! They brought all their own ingredients and left my kitchen completely spotless (possibly cleaner than how they found it) I am so thankful to these two and I look forward to our next lessons.

The produce is soggy (parsley), brown (romaine lettuce), or molding and straight up rotting (berries). The incredible price markup is just the soggy cherry on top. Feels like the shelf stable stuff is half out, like it was during the pandemic. I could only find one kind of plain old milk chocolate bar in the chocolate section. Organic onions in a different aisle from regular onions, but not so for avocados, leading to confused mendicants wandering about. The stars are for the staff who are the only good and normal part of the place. By the end, I felt as wilted and bewildered as the greens section.
