I am so lucky that Arianna has responded to my posted task! I could not wish for a more efficient professional service. I cannot thank Arianna enough for her expertise, punctuality, quick turnaround, attention to detail, extreme patience, and above all, great sense of style. Arianna has been meeting every request of mine and asked every question promptly and in detail. She was never short of suggestions and explored every way of optimising solutions, although my kitchen layout was not a straightforward one. From the very beginning, I felt very confident in trusting Arianna to find the best option possible. Arianna's commitment to my project was as high as my own. I highly recommend Arianna for design and draft. I will not hesitate to come back to her in the future. Truly great job! Thank you Arianna! Elena

Weekly meal prep helper - Sri Lankan/ South Indian cuisine preference
$35
Viewbank VIC 3084, Australia
10th Jul 2026
I'm after someone to help me out with meal prep once a week, ideally with a knack for Sri Lankan or South Indian cooking. We are a family of 3 with one young kid so would need to be somewhat family friendly recipes. What I'm hoping for - One meat/chicken curry - One or 2 veggie dishes - A bit of extra veggie or meat prep so I've got stuff ready for quick stir-fries or pastas during the week - How often: Once a week, Mondays or Fridays are ideal but I can work around you - Time: Around 2–3 hours, happy to go with what you reckon is realistic - Pay: $35/hour (or give me your best offer) - Groceries: I can shop from a list if you write one up, or you're welcome to grab everything yourself and I'll reimburse you — totally up to what suits you better Who I'm hoping to find: - Someone who cooks genuine Sri Lankan/South Indian flavours - Reliable and keen for something ongoing, not just a one-off - Bonus points if you like mixing things up week to week so it doesn't get repetitive Keen to find someone regular if it's a good match — flick me a message and let's chat!

No beef or pork please. 💰 BUDGET Please quote your hourly or per-session rate (groceries on top). 📅 TIMING Weekday preferred, flexible on the day.

Weekly Meal Prep Cook Needed — 10–15 Large Meals Delivered
$250
Greensborough VIC 3088, Australia
30th May 2026
Looking for someone in Melbourne/Victoria to cook and deliver weekly bulk meals on Saturday or Sunday. I work long construction hours and need proper filling meals, not small diet meals or packaged gym-style meals. Looking for 10–15 large serves per week. High protein, decent carbs, vegetables, moderate salt. Meals like chicken and rice, beef and potatoes, pasta bakes, curries, chilli con carne, burrito bowls, stir-fries, slow-cooked beef, lamb, etc. Ideally meals would be around 700–900 calories each with 40g+ protein, but I don’t need perfect macro tracking. I mainly need big, fresh, healthy meals that are already put together and ready to reheat. Ongoing weekly work if the food is good. Please include examples/photos of meals you’ve cooked and your weekly price for 10–15 meals delivered.
Awesome service, beautiful fresh meals delivered, way better than going to other pre-packaged food companies and healthier!
