Fresh meals, made in your kitchen, every week. Seasonal, local, and ready when you are, without spending your Sunday doing it.

The Weekly Table

– The MEAL PREP Experience

– WHO THIS IS FOR

If your fridge tells the story of your week, let's rewrite it.

THE PROFESSIONAL

"I eat well when I have time. I just never have time."

You’re busy building and growing. The Weekly Table means your nutrition keeps up with your schedule, without adding another thing to your plate.

THE FAMILY

"I want my family to eat real food. I just can't do it all."

Weeknight dinners that are ready, tasty, and made from ingredients you recognize. 

THE OPTIMIZER

"I know what I should be eating. I just don't make it happen."

Nutritious meals built around how you want to feel, not just what’s convenient. This is the system that makes eating an experience, what you look forward to!

– HOW IT WORKS 

Simpler than you think

01.

We Talk

A conversation about how you eat, what you love, what you won’t touch, and what your week actually looks like.

02.

We Plan

A weekly menu built around the season, your preferences, and what we think you will love! You approve it. We handle everything else.

03.

We Cook

We go to your kitchen on your scheduled day. Source the ingredients, cook, label everything, and clean up. You don’t lift a finger.

04.

You Eat

Open the fridge! Everything is there, labeled and ready. Real food, all week.

Professional, talented, and incredibly accommodating, Chef Amanda Palma made our stay in Maine so memorable. From the table setting to the delicious variety of appetizers, to a meal that truly rivaled any restaurant experience AND the dessert, she delivered.The local ingredients were delectable, to say the least. From appetizers to dessert our entire group savored each bite! Thanks again Amanda for making our birthday celebration so special.

We've had the pleasure of enjoying Amanda's cooking at friends' homes, and now that we hosted our own Amanda experience, we're hooked. The entire booking and planning process was easy and professional. After one conversation, Amanda came up with a menu that couldn't have been more perfect. She arrived at our home with fresh flowers and got right to work. As always, the food was divine. And here's one of the best parts: Amanda does all the dishes and leaves your kitchen more spotless than when she arrived. I highly recommend her private chef service!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Amanda for a bachelorette weekend in Portland, ME and it was incredible from start to finish. Amanda is extremely professional, friendly and responsive during the planning stages. She took all allergies and preferences into consideration when curating the menu and adjusted for any requests along the way. The presentation of all the food during our evening was beautiful not to mention absolutely delicious!! Amanda nailed the entire menu and I would definitely use her services in the future!

Was fortunate to experience Amanda’s talents at a friend’s dinner party. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. Everything she served was exceptional with beautiful presentation. Highly recommend her for any occasion.

What an amazing surprise! I found Amanda on Yelp as I was looking for a light meal for a 30 person party. We collaborated on the meal and it was superb and I and my guests can be food snobs! Lobster bisque, butternut squash soup with crème fraiche and chestnuts, homemade pumpkin ice cream cones and chocolate cake…plus others! Amanda and Andrea were unobtrusive, professional and cleaned everything up beautifully! This was a great alternative to the usual catering companies!

We hired Amanda for a private birthday dinner this past weekend, and she was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, Amanda was professional and organized. Every dish she created was delicious — beautifully presented and full of flavor. She made the entire experience feel effortless, allowing our family to relax and truly enjoy the celebration. You can tell she puts her heart into her cooking. Highly recommend Amanda for any special occasion — we’re already thinking about when to book again!

We had Amanda come cook for our group of 10 moms on vacation in Portland and she was incredible. The food and service was 10/10. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have a delicious meal and lovely dining experience! Thank you Amanda (+team)!

Amanda worked with us for 4 months after we welcomed a baby and didn’t have to bandwidth to cook meals! She prepared some really amazing dishes that we could reheat and really saved our sanity with a newborn! Couldn’t recommend her enough for dinner parties or meal prep!

A Few Things People Ask.

Click above, fill out a short form, and Amanda will reach out to schedule your first conversation.

That’s part of the first conversation. It’s built around your household size, how often you eat at home, and what you actually need. No one-size-fits-all.

Yes, always in your home. The food tastes like it was made there because it was. We arrive with the ingredients and handle everything from there.

 

Always. Allergies, intolerances, preferences, all of it is built into your preference profile from the start and respected every week.

Yes! We grocery source right before arrival and bring everything needed.

We also take a look at what you already have on hand and happily incorporate pantry staples or ingredients in your fridge when it makes sense. It’s a mix of using what you have and bringing in exactly what’s needed.

We will be needing ample counter space in your kitchen, and fridge and freezer space for ingredients and completed meals. 

Yes! Our goal is to leave your kitchen cleaner than how we arrived.
