How “Book a Chef” works
Choose your chef
Browse local chefs and pick the one who fits your family.
Select your package
Sessions start at $115 for light meal prep.
Plan your meals
Choose your menu in the Joy app. Your chef sees your family's tastes and allergies before they arrive.

Your chef cooks in your kitchen and cleans up.
Planning a dinner party or special occasion? Ask for Custom Cooking when you book.
Simple, upfront pricing.
Once you choose your chef, you’ll see one flat price for cooking and cleanup, with groceries billed at cost.
Each chef sets their own rate based on their experience and training, so prices vary by chef. You choose how many servings you want for each dish, up to 6, at the same cooking price, and your grocery order is sized to match. Read more about our pricing — and how we can save you money, here.
