Four simple steps. One chef. Zero logistics for you. Here's exactly how Eats by Nicole works — start to finish.
Fill out a short intake quiz — five questions covering your household size, health goals, dietary preferences, and where you are in your decision. We use every answer to match you with the right package and the right chef before you commit to anything.
A $100 deposit locks in your start date and officially kicks off menu curation. This isn't an extra charge — it's applied directly to your total. It tells us you're ready, so we can assign your chef and begin building your first week's menu right away.
Your assigned chef builds a fully custom weekly meal plan around everything you shared in your intake — your tastes, restrictions, macro goals, household preferences, and more. Nicole personally reviews every menu before it reaches you. Nothing goes out that hasn't been approved.
On service day, your personal chef arrives, shops for every ingredient at your preferred stores, cooks everything fresh in your kitchen, portions and labels your meals for the week, and cleans up completely before leaving. You come home to a full fridge. You didn't have to think about any of it.
Every service follows the same structure — thorough, professional, and completely hands-off for you.
Your chef shops for every ingredient on your menu — at the stores you prefer, with the sourcing standards you specified (organic, grass-fed, conventional).
Your chef arrives, sets up, and starts cooking. Everything is prepared fresh in your kitchen — no reheated batch meals, no shortcuts.
Meals are portioned for your household, labeled with contents and reheating instructions, and stored in your fridge exactly how you want them.
Your chef cleans everything — countertops, dishes, pans, stove. You come home to a spotless kitchen and a full fridge. Nothing for you to do.
Every detail of the Eats by Nicole process is designed to remove every decision and every burden from you. Nicole personally oversees chef matching, menu approval, and feedback — you only interface with the food.
This isn't a marketplace or a staffing agency. Nicole manages every client relationship directly, which means consistent quality, consistent communication, and menus that genuinely get better every week.
Typically 4–6 hours, depending on your package size and menu complexity. Your chef arrives with the groceries already purchased and works start to finish in your kitchen.
No. Most clients give their chef access and come home to a full fridge. If you'd prefer to be present your first service day, that's completely fine too.
Your chef shops for every ingredient and you're reimbursed at exact cost. An itemized receipt is sent every Friday. There is no grocery markup — ever.
Just tell Nicole. The feedback loop is built into the service — your preferences are updated each week and the menu evolves. Over time, your chef learns exactly how you like things.
Yes. Every package is available as a one-time trial at a slightly higher rate. Most clients start with a trial and move to monthly after their first service.
Your $100 deposit kicks off the process and your menu is curated within 3 business days. We recommend booking at least one week before your desired start date.
Two minutes to tell us how you eat. Three days to your first menu. One chef who handles everything.
