I've worked with Johana for almost a year in San Carlos. My partner and I needed help with meal…read moreprep while we worked full time and had a new baby. Having someone to do menu planning and grocery shopping was a huge time saver and ensured that we had home-cooked meals to eat rather than falling back to ordering takeout every night. Johanna provided a wide variety in her meals. Most menus came directly from her, but sometimes I would request certain types of food or specific dishes she had made in the past that were our favorites. Johanna tailored her menus to meet my dietary restrictions (low saturated fat). She always left the kitchen clean with clear instructions for the meals and even some cooking tips along the way! Johanna came every 2 weeks but was flexible around holidays and vacation. Would absolutely recommend her services!

Background: Contacted Chef Johanna about preparing food for…read moremy small wedding in the spring of 2022. My (now) husband is a severe Celiac and so making sure all food is completely Gluten-free was the number one concern. The Chef was quick to respond and so helpful in brainstorming a potential menu for the event (we settled on Mexican). She then got started on putting together the recipes and gathering the proposed ingredient list. This is where the Chef went above and beyond for us-she sent us the full recipes and proposed ingredients(down to the specific brands) so that we could ensure that everything was free from gluten and free from cross-contamination (a shocking amount of spices are processed on the same equipment as wheat). She even was able to find a way to make gluten free Tres Leches and Tiramisu (our favorites). For our wedding cakes! Menu: Crudités with Green Goddess Dip Queso Fundido with Chorizo Pico de Gallo Chopped Salad Chili Verde Stew Slow Cooked Barbocoa Tacos Roasted Zucchini Sweet Bell Pepper Rice Spicy Citrus Black Beans Tres Leches with strawberries Tiramisu Preparation: The chef packaged up all of our food so that my sister could pick it up and transport it (our venue was 4 hours north of the bay). She provided detailed instructions for reheating the food and prepping the cakes. She even made sure we would have any additional utensils that would be necessary. She gave me an accurate and in-depth invoice that broke down the expenses and made it easy to work into our wedding budget. Food: WOW WOW WOW! The best part (obviously) was the food! Everything was fresh and vibrant and so so delicious! The Queso provided the best cheese pull I have ever seen and my husband and I are still drooling over that Tres Leches and my family keeps bringing up how incredible the dinner was! Additionally my husband was able to freely eat everything to his hearts content, confident that he wouldn't become ill on our special day. I cannot recommend Chef Johanna enough!!

Koshin Bento is my new go-to spot for delivery or pick-up when I'm craving Japanese comfort food in…read morea bento box. This place delivers fresh, flavorful bento boxes with high quality ingredients and top quality cooking techniques. So far, I've had the wagyu yakiniku bento and wagyu hamburger bento. For my first time, I ordered the wagyu yakiniku bento via delivery and I was already blown away -- perfectly grilled, moist, and seasoned just right. Everything tasted homemade and thoughtfully prepared. The wagyu hamburger steak was also a generous size and juicy and flavorful. I've been to Japan 3x and this was exactly what I look for in a hanbaga steak. So glad this is around now! The portions are generous, and the prices are super reasonable for the quality. The chef/owner is also private chef. Check out Koshin Bento's website to learn more. Koshin Bento is a win for the Bay Area. Since delivery prices are getting high, I do also recommend just picking up. There's tons of parking at that location. Support small businesses like Koshin Bento! They keep Bay Area unique and we need to keep the talented chefs like here.

I tried GOOD CHEFS a couple weeks ago and I'm hooked! The food is cooked the same day it is delivered and it is delicious! Seriously, if you order meals offered on different days of the same week then they come every day with your fresh delivery! It is packaged in a little foil lined bag with frozen water bottles. The price point is toward the splurge side for me but when you think about all the ingredients and variety you're getting for your health and how much it would cost for you to purchase those ingredients and then spend the hours making meals that -- at least in my case -- would never approach the quality of good chefs... Then I feel it is worth the investment. And, time is in short supply for me like most parents. Some of the meals were able to be stretched into more than two portions, like the beetroot lasagna. We've also had the tri-tip dinner and chickpea Florentine flatbread pizza - mwah delish! I especially love this service right now with two teenage boys who are hungry 24 hours a day and craving nutrients. The minute I finish feeding them and cleaning up they are back trolling for food like it never happened! Honestly, compared to my grocery budget this service will probably not cost me more than I was already spending but will now have ready made healthy food of great variety, and no waste. And way beyond my ability to put a meal together. Like, I simply am never going to learn how to make chimichurri. Which I just ordered for this week! And who thinks to combine watermelon, basil and feta? Yes, please. The offerings change every week based on seasonal fruits and vegetables, including vegetarian and meat options. They use organic where possible and all the ingredients are disclosed in advance. Support good chefs and our community members, who are actually the talented chefs on site, and purchase their supplies locally! Buy local!

John has become my life line!…read more I cater lunches for a start up 3 days a week and when I use FounderFood I never have to worry. When I first was introduced to John & FF almost a year ago, I was in shock that I literally emailed "So you're telling me I can get ALL these great restaurants to cater and you are my only point of contact?!" For me this was a HUGE score! Dealing with so many vendors, menus etc. bringing food in is a major task and a huge time suck. Countless times I have had other vendors back out or fail to show and I call John in a panic and he saves my tail feathers. John knows our company and our want and needs and is able to quickly turn around tailor made menus from an ever growing array of WONDERFUL restaurants and vendors. I use them 1-2 times per week (sometimes more) and I never have to worry when FounderFood is on the schedule. They are always on time and every driver shows up with a huge friendly smile. The food is always fresh & super tasty; Even my picky eaters & restricted eaters are happy and needs are met. On the rare occasion when there has been a goof John is right on it to remedy the issue quickly while keeping everyone happy and clam. Finding FounderFood has been a life and game changer. I have made a great friend in John, and a partnership for a long time with FounderFood! Wish I could give them 10 stars!

So I came across this place on yelp and it had 5 star rating by 3 customers. I think i was…read morehoodwinked by it. It started off well as they let me customize Order 2 and Order 3 on two different days but when the food was delivered it went downhill. The Monday delivery had Dal Makhani (the only tasty dish which earns the 1 star - I give credit where it's due) and it had paneer vindaloo which was just watery gravy and exactly 2 pieces of paneer in the 16 Oz box... talk about cheating!! and the mixed vegetable sabji had bell peppers, onions and channa!!! where is the word does mixed vegetable sabji have channa? and yes it had paneer pieces too it was it tofu? not sure. but it tasted spoilt. When I told the person about it they said they will check with the kitchen and get back but they never did, till I asked them on the second day of delivery. On the second day, there was shahi paneer (btw their food is delivered cold) which was made of coconut milk. yes the flavor was decent but guess what happens when you heat coconut milk? it becomes watery!! and this time there were 4 pieces of paneer floating in the watery gravy. Yes, they gave me two dabbas to make up for the first delivery but I have had food from many other places where every single mouth had a paneer piece literally with the gravy ... PM me and I can share the names!! This is pure daylight robbery. Pricey to the boot (yes they deliver for free but it is incorporated in the price) and substance is less. And finally the bindi masala - the Bindi was so fibrous and had so many end pieces. For charging so much can't they get good bindi?? I will definitely not order from them again and wouldn't advice anyone to either!
