Weekly Cooking Plans
What is a weekly cooking plan?
A weekly cooking plan is a recurring cooking service for everyday life. A dedicated chef prepares fresh meals in your home, tailored to your preferences, your routine, and your personal situation.
The focus is on reliable, home-cooked food for several days a week, designed to reduce everyday stress and save you time.
How many days per week are covered?
A weekly cooking plan is designed to provide you with freshly cooked meals on multiple days each week. The exact number of days depends on the plan you choose and the individual agreement with your chef.
The goal is meaningful everyday relief, without rigid rules.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Yes. Every weekly cooking plan starts with a fixed trial week. After the trial week, the plan automatically continues as a monthly booking.
The monthly booking is flexible and can be cancelled. Cancellation is possible with one week’s notice before the end of the current month. This means you need to let us know at least one week before the start of the next month if you wish to end the plan.
How is the price for a weekly cooking plan calculated?
The price of a weekly cooking plan is set by the chef as a weekly rate. It depends on your household, the scope of the service, the effort involved, and the agreed services.
After the trial week, the plan is billed monthly. Payment is usually made in advance for the upcoming month.
How does the trial week work?
During the trial week, the cooking service takes place for a full week, exactly as it would in the regular setup. You get to experience the chef, the coordination, and the quality of the meals in your daily routine.
At the end of the trial week, you decide whether you’d like to continue the weekly cooking plan as a monthly booking.
Are ingredients included in the price?
Yes. Ingredients are included as part of the weekly cooking plan and are organized by the chef. Selection is based on the planned menu, your preferences, and seasonal availability.
You don’t need to worry about shopping or preparation.
Can I specify preferences or dietary restrictions?
Yes. Before starting, you discuss your taste preferences, eating habits, and any dietary restrictions directly with your chef. These are taken into account during menu planning.
The weekly cooking plan is designed to adapt to your life, not the other way around.
Changes and cancellations
What happens if I need to change or cancel an appointment?
If you need to change or cancel an appointment, please inform Kochdaheim as early as possible. We’ll coordinate the change with the chef and take care of the next steps.
This ensures that everyone involved is informed in time and that a suitable solution can be found.
What rules apply to weekly cooking plans?
Weekly cooking plans start with a trial week and then continue as a monthly booking. The plan can be ended with one week’s notice before the end of the current month.
Any changes or pauses are communicated transparently as part of the booking and agreed together.
What happens if the chef has to cancel at short notice?
If a chef is unexpectedly unavailable, Kochdaheim will inform you immediately. Together, we’ll look for a suitable solution, such as a replacement date or an alternative arrangement.
Kochdaheim handles the coordination and actively supports finding a solution.
What happens in unforeseen situations?
In unforeseen situations, we focus on open communication and pragmatic solutions. The goal is to find a fair outcome that takes everyone’s situation into account.
Kochdaheim supports the process throughout.
What applies when cancelling a Signature Event?
Signature Events have separate cancellation terms. Since ingredients are purchased in advance and the chef reserves the date exclusively for you, last minute cancellations may not always be free of charge.
Depending on when the cancellation takes place, already incurred costs, such as ingredients or preparation, may apply. The exact cancellation terms are shared transparently before booking and are part of the offer.
