What people are saying.

  • Shelly’s homemade meals are delicious, consciously prepared, healthy and nutritious. We asked her to prepare our meals so we could eat well after long hours at the office. There wasn’t time in our lives to work, eat and relax unless we had help. Shelly delivered a fusion of organic Mediterranean tailored to our palate. She asked us what we liked so personalize the meals, Jami and I really enjoyed eating her food.

  • I hired Shelly to cater my spring birthday party. From our first conversation, I knew I made the right decision. She took the lead by suggesting a menu based on my ideas for a healthy dinner. She suggested a variety of appetizers that complimented each other, two entrees so each guest could select his/her preference, several flavorful sides and a bakery where I could select a special cake. She came to my home in advance to be sure my kitchen was equipped with the tools she needed to prepare the meal. On the day of the party she came early for the last-minute prep and final discussion about where and how to serve the meal. She chose a very talented helper who took drinks and plates of food to my guests all evening long. When she left, the kitchen was clean and dishes were put away. My guests were well satisfied and complimented me for offering them a fine meal made by a talented chef. Shelly made the party a success. She exceeded my expectations. June, 2022.
