What We Offer

Culinary Care, Tailored to You

Weekly Meal Preparation

Arrive home to a full week's worth of meals — freshly prepared, portioned, and ready to enjoy. Chef Malouf handles every detail: menu planning, ingredient sourcing, cooking, and kitchen clean-up. You simply open the refrigerator.

The Process

Simple from Start to Table

A seamless, low-friction experience from first inquiry to your first meal.

01

Consultation

We begin with a brief conversation about your household, preferences, dietary requirements, and goals. No obligation — just a chance to understand what you need.

02

Custom Menu Design

Chef Malouf crafts a personalized menu for your approval. Every dish is chosen for your palate, sourced for quality, and planned around the week ahead.

03

Preparation & Delivery

On your scheduled day, Chef Malouf arrives, prepares everything fresh in your kitchen, and leaves it ready to enjoy — kitchen clean-up included. All you do is eat.

Investment

Personalized Service, Clearly Priced

Every package includes menu planning, in-home preparation, and kitchen clean-up. Clients handle their own grocery shopping — or add Chef Malouf's shopping service for a flat fee. Either way, you are never marked up on ingredients.

Meet
Chef Malouf

Some people cook for a living. Chef Malouf cooks because food is the most personal form of hospitality there is.

Based in the Raleigh–Durham area, Chef Malouf has built a private clientele around a simple but demanding standard: every meal should feel considered. Not just nutritious or convenient — though it will be both — but genuinely crafted for the person eating it.

With a background rooted in classical technique and a palate shaped by American, Mediterranean, and Latin influences, Chef Malouf brings restaurant-quality execution into the home kitchen without the formality, pretense, or interruption that comes with dining out.

What clients most often say isn't that the food is impressive — though it is. It's that coming home feels different. The week is handled. One less thing to think about. That's the work Chef Malouf finds most meaningful.

Serving Raleigh, Apex, Cary, Morrisville, Chapel Hill, Durham, and surrounding Triangle communities.

Client Experiences

What Clients Say

"

Absolutely amazing! Cannot recommend enough. We asked for poolside hibachi and he did not disappoint. The kids all ate and enjoyed the veggies and the meats. Thrilled to work with Phillip and will definitely be using him again!

Private Event Client
"

Chef is punctual, down to earth, and professional. His dishes taste great and he is very open to constructive criticism, suggestions, and your preferences to seasoning. His prices are very reasonable.

"

Chef Phill cooked a private meal for my friends and I a few weeks ago — I am still dreaming of it! The breadth of cuisine options he is capable of cooking was seemingly unending, but we decided to go with an upscale seafood cuisine.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

What areas do you serve? +
Chef Malouf serves Raleigh, Apex, Cary, Morrisville, Chapel Hill, Durham, and surrounding Triangle communities. Reach out to confirm availability for your specific location.
How does the grocery shopping service work? +
By default, clients provide their own groceries. If you'd prefer Chef Malouf to handle the shopping, that's available as an add-on for a $40 flat fee. Either way, groceries are billed at market cost — there are no markups on ingredients, ever.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions or allergies? +
Absolutely. Accommodating dietary needs — from gluten-free and dairy-free to plant-based, low-carb, and specific allergy requirements — is a standard part of our menu planning process, not an exception.
How far in advance do I need to book? +
For weekly meal prep, we recommend at least one week of lead time for your initial consultation and first session. Private dining and event inquiries are best made two to three weeks in advance.
Is there a contract or minimum commitment? +
There is no long-term contract required. Most clients find a consistent weekly rhythm works best, but your schedule is flexible and can be adjusted as needed.
What happens on prep day? +
Chef Malouf arrives at your home, prepares everything fresh in your kitchen, portions and stores all meals, and leaves the kitchen clean. You don't need to be present the entire time — most clients are home for the start and finish.
Do you handle special events and dinner parties? +
Yes. Private dining, intimate dinner parties, and special occasion meals are available by custom quote. Reach out to discuss your vision and we'll build the experience from there.
Can my menu change week to week? +
Menus are rebuilt fresh each week based on your preferences, what's in season, and any changes to your schedule or nutritional goals. Consistency and flexibility coexist here.
