Mrs. Portable Chef @angelaattia has become an accomplished gardener over the pandemic. Everything in my lunch salad – the lettuce, the snap peas, and the strawberries – came from our garden this morning, a ridiculous bounty. (Full disclosure: after this photo was taken I also put a dealing quantity of #parmigiano on top – an ingredient which, for the moment anyway, is beyond her purview). Well done baby! …

Years ago, I was crushed to learn that the “baby carrots” I’d been snacking on since I was a child were simply bits of large carrots cut into a small shape. These can’t compare to the superior taste and visual appeal of *actual* baby carrots, pictured here. #babycarrots #realthing #rootvegetables #eatyourveggies #realfood #jerf #mealdelivery #hudsonvalleyfood …

I started Portable Chef in large part because I love to cook. Funny, because I don’t do much of it any more – our cooks are extremely skilled, and I have the mechanics of a business to run. But every once in while, I step out from behind my desk – I did that today, to make a birthday cake for a client – I’m reminded how much fun cooking can be, and what an amazing kitchen we’re fortunate enough to have at Portable Chef headquarters.#smallbusiness #chocolatecake #customdiningdelivered …
