Want a home-cooked dinner, but don't want to make it yourself?
Kitchensurfing has a solution to your problems.
For $25 a person, Kitchensurfing brings a professional chef to your home, who will make you dinner and clean up the mess afterwards.
Founded in 2012, Manhattan-based Kitchensurfing has raised $19.5 million from investors including Union Square Ventures, Spark Capital, BoxGroup, and Joanne Wilson.
We were curious, so we decided to try Kitchensurfing for ourselves.
When you log into Kitchensurfing's website, you choose one of three main courses. Each day, Kitchensurfing offers one meal with a meat-based protein, one vegetarian meal, and one meal with fish. (We went with the vegetarian option). You also choose a one-hour time slot for your chef to come prepare your meal.
The day of your meal, you'll receive a confirmation from Kitchensurfing, letting you know which chef is coming to cook for you.
This is our chef, Chris. He told us he's been working for Kitchensurfing for three months, but that he also has his own catering business on the side.
