What do I need to provide in my home?
Running hot and cold water, an operating refrigerator, freezer, stove, and oven, counter space, space in refrigerator and/or freezer. Proper ventilation in kitchen, fire extinguisher, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector. This is for the health of the chef and food and non-negotiable.
Ideally, a home will also have pots and pans, a cutting board, small ware appliances, and certain handheld tools for cooking and baking purposes. The end result (meal) will reflect what a client owns or doesn’t own. Morsel will make product recommendations for client if he or she is so inclined. Please note for your particular service, certain items will be needed like glass containers for hybrid meal planning and extra cutting boards and sharpened knives for cooking classes. Chef Megan will inform as needed to make your service a success.

I know that I want to use Morsel’s service. What next?
Great! We will have an initial consultation to determine if you and your home is ready for a personal chef. This typically takes place through email at which a new client form will be filled out. Please see Terms of Use for our payment process. Please note, we work for clients that require this service at least a week in advance. This offers Chef Megan the opportunity to engage and understand the client, discover his or her requirements, and draft a menu that suits all. It is imperative that clients seeking a personal chef understand this is a personal, one-on-one service, and it does take time for Chef Megan to understand the needs of her clients. Many email exchanges take place to determine the right fit for everyone. Once a menu is set, a date and time is chosen, payment has been sent, and all the details are arranged, Chef Megan will get to work and prepare an unforgettable meal for you and your household.
