IT'S NOT JUST FOOD, IT'S AN EXPERIENCE
A LUXURIOUS EXPERIENCE
Simply relax and enjoy the luxurious experience of having your own private chef and service staff on call!
Whether you're hosting an intimate gathering or largescale event, or simply looking for some personal chef support, Suddenly Simple provides a stress-free dining experience in the comfort of your own home or favorite event venue.
CHEF PREPARED ON SITE
From the moment Melissa and her team arrive at your door with fresh ingredients that will be transformed into the delicious dishes that you've ordered right before your eyes, you'll know that you're about to experience something special!
​
Unlike other personal chef and catering services who may begin preparing some or all of your food days in advance, we fully prepare everything fresh on site to provide an unapparelled level of freshness and quality in our finished product.
HAND SELECTED INGREDIENTS
Every ingredient that we use is hand selected by Melissa herself and purchased as close to the service date as possible (often the day of!) to ensure optimal freshness and quality.
​
Melissa especially loves to source ingredients from seasonal farmers markets and her favorite local vendors, which include Saltery in Duxbury and Mullaney's Fish Market in Scituate Harbor.
HEALTH CONSCIOUS MENUS
Melissa is on a mission to prove that healthy food should never have to look or taste like "health food" with her vibrant array of dairy free, gluten free, refined sugar free and allergen friendly menu options!
​
Melissa is also passionate about creating recipes that leave you feeling even better than before you've enjoyed them - which means avoiding overly processed and inflammatory ingredients, like seed oils, binders and artificial preservatives, as much as possible.
FLEXIBLE SERVICE OPTIONS
Whether you're looking for a simple personal chef service, or full service catering option complete with bartending, service staff, entertainment and rentals, Melissa and her experienced team of service professionals can assist with almost every element of hosting, no matter how big or small!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I order food for drop off or pick up?
At this time we only offer pickup of our Bakehouse offerings.
All other food will be fully prepared on site and cannot be ordered for pickup.
​
What is a "personal chef style" catering service?
A personal chef style catering service scales the same on-site preparation techniques utilized by personal and private chefs to provide full service catering without any advance food prep. This means that all of the food you order will be full prepared on site by chefs just hours before the service time.
