When to book a cook at home
Ceremonies and large tables, weekly meal prep for busy weeks, or a quiet plated dinner — each booking starts with what you need that day. Cooks reply with labeled fees, not a generic takeaway order.

Name what you need, approve labeled fees, then eat without running the kitchen. Payment mechanics live on Trust & safety.

Occasion, guests, city, kitchen setup, and allergies — whether it is Njangi, meal prep, or a busy week you cannot cook through.

Each proposal shows a labor fee and a market budget priced to local markets. You approve both before checkout.
03
Eat without running the kitchen
Compare proposals, pay once, and let the cook handle shop, cook, and cleanup. We hold funds until the meal is done. See Trust & safety for the release timeline.
Questions about booking a cook
Answer
It is how you use a private cook at home. Njangi or Owambe, Dot or naming, weekly meal prep when you are busy, or a plated dinner for two. The label shapes menu, guest scale, labor fee, and market budget. It is not delivery and not a generic event package.
