Benefits of Larissa House at Home

No More Grocery Stores!

No one enjoys the grocery store anymore. The mobs of people, the long check out lines with clerks who don’t even bother to acknowledge you.  Larissa House at Home can free you from going to the grocery store quite as often!

Easy to Prepare Meals with Minimal Clean Up

Imagine a delicious meal at home. Imagine walking into the kitchen and having only to load a few utensils into the dishwasher. What could be better?  Larissa House at Home cleans all the dishes needed to prepare your dinner without your ever even having to see the mess!

More Free Time to do What You Enjoy!

Even if you love to cook, there are so many OTHER things you would like to do.  A new hobby, a gym membership you would actually use.  Quality time to spend with your children or your spouse.  Larissa House at Home is as much about times as it is about food.

Affordable Meals

Add up what you spend for take out meals, the price of gas spent driving to a restaurant for dinner, the cost of food that spoils in your fridge or freezer and what your personal time is really worth.  Larissa House at Home, when compared to the real cost of buying, preparing and cleaning up after cooking is very reasonable!

What Does Larissa House at Home Include?

Customized Menu Planning

Love seafood? Can’t stand oregano? NEVER enough cheese? We can, if requested, conduct a personal interview with you and/or members of your family.  We’ll keep a record of your likes and dislikes and use this as a reference when you call for meals.  ($25 interview fee)  If you don’t want or need to define specific dietary needs or tastes, there will always be delicious choices for you on our At Home Menu.

Grocery Shopping

Don't have time to stop at the store and wait in line? Larissa House at Home does it all.  We do the shopping, using local farmers when possible and shopping for the best, freshest ingredients from professional foodservice providers.  This is a service many other personal chef services are unable to provide.  We buy from the ‘big boys’ and can pass those quantity savings along to you! 

In-Home Meal Preparation

Tired of the hassle in preparing meals everyday? Just imagine pulling out next week’s calendar and writing “Larissa House” in on three of your busiest days.  Beef Stroganoff after Boy Scouts instead of fast food.  A gourmet meal to enjoy as you watch your favorite show, uninterrupted by oven timers.  The most delicious answer to what’s for dinner?  We are!

Storage and Cleanup

Dirty sink, pots and pans, greasy stove?
Larissa House at Home packs your meals for the refrigerator or freezer. Your kitchen stays clean and you can enjoy the delicious aromas coming from your oven as the entrees and sides cook.  

Peace of Mind

Safe food.  Today, with all the mass produced food recalls, it’s good to know who’s cooking your dinner.
We’ve washed our hands and been inspected by the Cherokee Health Department.  We’ve served over 500,000 meals.  We will NEVER serve anything to your family and friends that we would not eat ourselves.  That’s our promise to you.  So don’t worry about what “monocarbodianthribe” will do to your heart 10 years from now.  There’s not any of that in food from Larissa House at Home.
