What is a Personal Chef? A Personal Chef provides high quality, homemade meals, custom designed to your individual taste and dietary preferences. A Personal Chef allows you to recoup time otherwise spent planning, shopping for and preparing your own food and/or eating out. The Original Wandering Gourmet is a healthy, convenient, customized and delicious meal alternative.

Imagine arriving home after a long day at work, or a day spent in traffic running errands …you’re tired and hungry… What’s for dinner? In just a short time you’re enjoying a delicious, homemade meal. The best part is that you did not have to plan, shop, chop, cook, or clean up the mess! It was all done and prepared for you by your very own Personal Chef, Dan Engel. 

The Original Wandering Gourmet will create your menu based on your tastes and dietary preferences; or simply link to our Menu page for quick selection ordering. On your scheduled cook day, The Original Wandering Gourmet will handle all of the grocery shopping choosing only the freshest ingredients available. Chef Dan will arrive at your home bringing all of the equipment needed to prepare your meals. When the day is done, Chef Dan will have prepared and packaged all of your meals in oven -heatable, microwavable containers labeled with detailed warming instructions. Aside from a spotless kitchen and a refrigerator filled with delicious, home-cooked food, the only thing you’ll notice is the wonderful aroma filling the air.
