How it works
Your chef handles the hard part.
The work that makes weeknight cooking good happens during the day, not at 5pm.
Chef preps Monday through Thursday.
Marcus and his team marinate proteins overnight, make sauces from scratch, and break down every vegetable. The harissa takes 40 minutes to make properly. By Sunday, the hard work is done.
Chef does: the 40-minute prep.
Marinating, sauces, chopping — all of it.


Your box arrives Sunday afternoon.
We deliver one day a week — Sunday only. That's the design: tight routes, shorter time in transit, colder box. Select your 2-hour delivery window at checkout.
You do: open the fridge Sunday.
The week's dinners are already solved.
Dinner in 15 minutes, every night.
Each meal card shows two columns: Chef did and You do. Your job is always the same: heat a pan, finish the protein, plate it. Real family dinner. You made it.
You do: the last 15 minutes.
No chopping, no marinating, no sauce-making.

Behind the kitchen
Marcus Chen,
Executive Chef
Marcus spent 14 years in professional kitchens — line cook, then executive chef at a celebrated New American restaurant in Evanston. When his daughter was born, he started thinking about the food his neighbors were eating every night.
"I'm not trying to replace the family dinner. I'm trying to protect it. The goal is that you're still the one who put dinner on the table. I just handled the part that would have stopped you from doing it."

Real families. Real weeknights.
"I've tried HelloFresh twice and cancelled both times — still felt like cooking. Hearth is completely different. By the time I get home on Monday, I just heat the harissa chicken and put it on the couscous. My kids ask for it by name now."
Sarah K., Westchester NY
"Sunday delivery changes everything. The box is in the fridge when we wake up, and the whole week's dinners are solved. We've been subscribers for 6 weeks and haven't ordered takeout once on a weeknight."
Tom & Jess R., Naperville IL
"The short rib tacos. That's all I need to say. My husband — who was deeply skeptical of paying $149 — asked me to make sure we never cancel."
Priya M., Ridgewood NJ
