Why Whangarei families choose us
Northland life moves between beach days, sport, work and school runs, and dinner does not always fit neatly into the schedule. Chef-made frozen meals give you a proper home-cooked feed without the effort. There are no contracts, so you order when it suits, and you can stock the freezer for the weeks ahead or just top up when you are running low.
Heating your meals
Every label has full instructions, but here is the quick guide. From frozen, microwave for 2.5–3 minutes, give it a stir, then rest for 1 minute. If your meal is already defrosted, bake in the oven at 180°C for 15–20 minutes. Once a meal is defrosted, keep it in the fridge and eat within 3 days.
