Why I Love Gold Plated

Gold Plated is a specialized chef service that specializes in meal prep on Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. that started over seven years ago in Oklahoma City. When people hear the word personal chef I think they think of white gloves and table service. However, Gold Plated isn’t that; in this day in age we all need some help in the kitchen. A couple of years ago they started to focus on helping families and creating a service special for them. 



You might be worried about cost when it comes to a specialized chef service, but it’s more approachable than you think. How many times have you spent over $100 at the grocery store and ended up picking up pizza or fast food because you’re just too tired? This service can actually help you save money in that area. It takes away the worries of cooking dinner after a long day. 



Gold Plated will also pick up any groceries you are needing for your household like milk, eggs or bread. I find it helpful because I’m not adding extra snacks to my cart that I’m getting out of hunger or boredom. Everyone has different challenges when it comes to facing groceries, so Gold Plated will only provide you with the items you need. They’ll even go into your home and take inventory of your kitchen to make sure the items you have on hand are being used,  and you’re not spending money where you don’t need to. 


The biggest bonus to me is probably the no mess incorporated with this service. All you have to do is turn on the oven or the grill and warm up your food. Want to enjoy an evening with your friends without forking the bill? You can split the service up with your friends to enjoy an evening care-free meal.



During COVID-19 this service is a great utilization for your family and friends. It’s hard not being able to go out to dinner with friends but they can bring the restaurant service to you. It provides a social connection that everyone is craving during quarantine. It even allows for more time to spend with loved ones; no cleaning and no prepping! 



With holidays approaching it’s the perfect time to use Gold Plated. They can use your grandma’s famous recipes, help you brine the turkey ahead of time, premake cookie dough and much more. It makes Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings so much easier. Joanna Gold, the owner of Gold Plated, told me loved ones help split her services to provide meals for a woman who had lost her husband; what a great way to help take away some burdens. 



No matter the occasion, Gold Plated will figure out a meal that works for you or loved ones. For more information on how to use this awesome service go to www.goldplated.com or reach them on instagram, @goldplatedfood; messages are always welcomed!
