Gwyneth Parltrow

“I rely on The Culinistas to streamline an integral part of my family’s lives. We’ve had many an engaging conversation, lively discourse and spirited dialogue over Turkey Bolognese, at the dinner table, and I’m convinced we’re better humans because of it.”

"[Our chef] did an awesome job and was so incredibly efficient. I was totally impressed with his speed, skill and knowledge, and of course he was super friendly and easygoing. Plus, the food is all AMAZING! My daughter gobbled up the zucchini nuggets and turkey bolognese for dinner, we had salmon and broccoli salad, with a little of the lentil and quinoa salad too, and it was delicious. Such a luxury to have all this fresh, beautiful food in the fridge for the week and none of the stress of having had to shop for and cook it on a busy Monday.”

"I believe magic happens when we eat together. Which is why I fell in love with The Culinistas. You can imagine after having been spoiled by decades of eating out for work, I definitely want a break in the cooking schedule from time to time. The recipes are clean, uncomplicated and still interesting."

“The Culinistas’ postnatal package managed to exceed my high expectations. The chef was completely lovely and unobtrusive and the smells coming from the kitchen when she was cooking were heavenly. Each of the six dishes I chose struck the same perfect balance of being nutritious, vibrant, filling, and satisfying. It was such a delight, at a moment of life when even the most cursory meal planning felt impossible, to simply open the fridge and find so many things that I was genuinely excited to eat and knew would be nourishing and easy on my recovering body.”
