Chef Carol - A Thought for Food

This "thought for food" is merely a sampling of my service. As your personal chef, I will continually provide you with customized menus and new selections that I think will appeal to you. All meals are prepared to your taste preferences, allergy and diet requirements. Because everything is custom-prepared, it can be made low-fat, low in salt and in many cases, gluten-free.

If you have selected a service that includes a side dish, each entrée comes with an appropriate side dish such as fresh, seasonal vegetable, potato, rice, pasta or grain, salad, bread or simple soup.

Bon Appetit!
