Welcome to Everyday Gourmet By Chef Lynn

As you weigh the value of a Personal Chef Service, keep the following in mind:

We understand your time is precious and this is where Everyday Gourmet can help.         

For your ultimate vacation in the Outer Banks, let Everyday Gourmet pamper you. You can savor exquisitely prepared gourmet meals while enjoying beautiful sunsets in the comfort of your own vacation home everyday!  Imagine entering your vacation cottage to the wonderful aromas of healthy, home-cooked meals just waiting for you!  Perhaps when the kids are in bed you can finally sit-down and relax to a wonderful romantic meal served by your very own personal chef.  Imagine the possibilities! 


                                        Arrival Services
We understand you've travelled far to come to the Outer Banks and the last thing you want to do is grocery shop for food on your first evening here.  Everyday Gourmet offers an arrival meal service that allows you to choose your first evening meal.  The idea of this service is to relieve you of any stress in trying to decide what to have for dinner that first night.  You choose from two menus each consisting of a salad, an entrée and a small dessert.   The Chef will pick up the groceries, get access to your vacation rental (with your permission), and have your dinner ready for you when you come in.  This service is all inclusive and what's even better is that Everyday Gourmet will supply a small breakfast to get you going first thing in the morning.  This service is idea for a family of four.  So relax, settle in, watch the sunset and let your personal chef do the work for you!
