About Us
Services
Assembled kits are
always available. Our
Anytime Menu represents our basic
pantry—the things our customers request the most and therefore the items
we try to always have on hand.
We also feature seasonal items
that change hourly. We try
to meet customer requests and keep from getting bored by always trying
new things, so many of these items will only be featured in the
store—our way of always making every visit fresh and exciting!
General Cooking Guidelines
All our kits are
assembled and frozen. Many
can be cooked the same day.
Stovetop entrees are very easy to thaw using a water method, right in
the bag. Simply open the
outer storage bag, remove anything that doesn’t need to be thawed, like
pasta, or spice cups, add hot water to the bag, and massage until
thawed. You may have to
change the water several times, but most items will thaw in about 15
minutes this way.
Frozen oven dishes
generally require additional baking time.
Most of our oven kits may be cooked in the aluminum pans in which
they are packaged. However,
aluminum is a poor heat conductor, so for best results, place pan on a
heavy cooking sheet, or stone.
Also it is very easy to transfer frozen product to your own pans
for better baking (and of course, so no one knows you didn’t slave in
the kitchen all day!).
Also, while the paper tops are technically oven safe, they are also
paper, and therefore flammable.
We absolutely do not recommend baking with these covers if you
plan to leave the house.
And, to be completely safe, discard the paper top and cover with heavy
duty foil if covered baking is required.
We understand that life
is complicated, so we try to keep things are simple as possible.
All our entrees are priced the same, $12.99, plus tax, or six for
$67.95. Sides are generally
$7.99, or $4.49 and we keep other retail items that are item priced.
For that reason, each entrée is generally designed to serve three
average adults, but the actual volume of food varies with the cost of
ingredients. Our crab cakes
have almost a half pound of the best crab we can find in each order, so
they are a smaller amount of food than spaghetti and meatballs (as long
as pasta doesn’t keep going up like it has been!).
But in general each of the entrée cards in the store provide
guidelines for servings and nutritional information.
Also, we do occasionally
accept members into our Supper Club which is our special pricing loyalty
plan. If interested, feel
free to ask about the next possible openings.
We use the finest
ingredients we can find from real Ceylon cinnamon to imported pastries,
and the best local products we can find—Show Me Beef and Patchwork Pork.
We will happily do our best to work with clients who have special
dietary needs, but for many reasons we are not able to accommodate
clients with severe food allergies.
We try as hard as we can
to reduce fat, sodium and sugar in most of our recipes.
Virtually all our recipes are trans-fat free, but due to popular
demand, we have not exiled puff pastry from our kitchen and we are not
able to find a trans-fat free puff product.
However, we will keep looking!
