Every single week we are blown away by the flavor, creativity, and care she puts into her cooking. Her meals are so good that we honestly no longer want to eat out. The food she prepares for us at home is consistently better than what we would order at restaurants, and that says everything. Each dish feels intentional, nourishing, and beautifully balanced, with just the right touches to make it feel special without ever being heavy. Every meal has been outstanding, and the consistency is what truly sets her apart. Chef Steph has completely changed the way we eat at home, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. If you are considering working with her, do it. You will not be disappointed.

I never thought I'd be able to justify the luxury of a private chef service, but I keep this…read moreservice as a lifeline in my back pocket for weeks that we just need a little extra help, like when the demands of parenting and working during a global pandemic seem extra burdensome. So far, we've had three appointments, and they've all been wonderful. For each one in advance, you choose the time/date for your chef, three entree items and three sides. The "sides" is a bit of a misnomer, as you can often make meals of these in themselves. They include salads, hot breakfast casseroles, pies, and more. Recipes range from Mongolian Beef to Shepherd's Pie, homemade granola bars, Thai Chicken salad, etc. I imagine if we did this weekly, the options might get monotonous, but doing it every once in a while works out well for us so that there are usually a few new options that appear the next time we're ready to book an appointment. For each item you'll see an estimate on how much extra it will add to your bill in groceries in addition to the base chef cost. The chef will stop at your local HEB to shop for your ingredients fresh right before your appointment. You pay a $35 deposit, which you can get refunded if you cancel the appointment by the stated deadline (and they send you frequent reminders -- they're not trying to pull one over). On average with tip and the cost of groceries, we usually spend around $225 for our family of four. The meals last us a while. Sometimes we share them with friends who could use an extra meal, or sometimes we freeze the leftovers. There are instructions for reheating, freezing, etc. As stated in other reviews the chefs are generally efficient and very tidy, leaving your kitchen looking spotless, with a huge amount of prepared food for you to enjoy (it's hard not to dive right in). Communication by text is great. During COVID, the chef has worn a mask during the appointment and the service has had very clearly communication about canceling in the event of COVID exposure, etc. I appreciate that they're taking it seriously. If I had a couple of critiques, it would be that whatever process gets communicated to the chef regarding ingredients might need to be streamlined. The past two appointments, our chef has had to make a couple of grocery store trips because he forgot items, and this prolongs the preparation process. I would also love to see a bit more variety to the menu options. It would be nice to have it broken down roughly by type of dish (seafood, beef, casserole, etc.) and price (budget friendly or special splurge). Other than those minor tweaks, we love the service, and I imagine we'll keep using it as occasional customers.

If you're looking for comfort food that hits all the right notes, look no further than Let me…read morediscuss the King Ranch Chicken from The Daily Spread which I drive from New Braunfels every year at Christmas for. From the moment you take your first bite, it's clear that Stephanie, the owner of The Daily Spread, knows exactly what she's doing. The creamy, cheesy layers of chicken, tortillas, and a rich blend of flavors are perfectly balanced. The homemade ranch sauce adds just the right amount of tang, while the chicken is tender and perfectly seasoned. It's a nostalgic dish for my wife and I, yet elevated in a way that only someone with Stephanie's culinary expertise could pull off. What stands out the most, though, is the care and attention Stephanie pours into every dish. You can taste the love in the food, and it's why I make the drive every year. The King Ranch Chicken isn't just a meal; it's an experience--a comforting, satisfying one that you'll crave long after your plate is empty. If you haven't tried it yet, do yourself a favor and grab a serving next time you're in the area. It's a true testament to Stephanie's passion for cooking and her dedication to creating quality, comforting food.

Due to the holidays I was having a hard time getting response from several other caterers. Stephanie was all over it. Very responsive, and informative...even as she was about to be on vacation. On her return she reached out to finalize the details. Stephanie was there, personally, to make sure our event went off without a hitch. She showed up exactly on time everyday. The food was exactly as ordered and there was a lot of it. Was it good? Day one, all the main dishes were gone and when there were extras I had people taking to-go plates at the end of the day. I think we hit all the challenges, vegetarian, gluten free, I don't like pork so I want other options, I hate mushrooms. Stephanie was there to help. Everyday was a different offering and variety was a key factor. When we come back to Austin, you can bet Daily Spread will be the first call we make.

But, I enjoyed it even more when my coworkers said, "What's for Lunch is my new favorite pick"! We had the Beef Tips, Grilled Mango Chicken, Garlic Mashed Potatoes & Stuffed Portobello. The Grilled Chicken was HUUGGEEE and unfortunately, not as moist or marinated or as juicy as what I hoped it would be. The Beef Tips, however, WERE THE TALK OF THE TOWN. The Beef Tips were perfectly cooked, it tasted like mini roast beef chunks and was perfectly seasoned all the way through. Along with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes, these two combos saved the day! As for the Stuffed Portobello for our vegetarians and vegans, they stated they expected the portobello mushrooms to be grilled. In addition, the quinoa that stuffed the mushroom just didn't make the cut...

Also, ​​ how food is handled is critical. Before food reaches the customer, the chance it has gone through many hands is higher, and the foods are stored longer before reaching you. Often, food additives are preservatives added to keep the food fresh for longer. However, buying from the farm is safe. It comes from the farm or grocery direct to you. Additionally, farm-fresh foods help reduce stress and fatigue. Veggies and whole fruits are fiber-rich foods that lower the effect of depression and enhance your mood (score)! I have ordered fruit, vegetables, meal kits, beverages, meats, etc. from this vendor. I have had great experience with customer service, and concerns regarding missing or incorrect items or verifying delivery times have been addressed promptly. The goods from this vendor are on the pricey side, but well worth the money for fresh food delivered to your home. #supportlocal
