Chef Stories
My name is Sharday, and I am a Chef in the culinary industry. I have been working in the restaurant world for over 10 years now! I have a love and passion for food that shines through when I cook. What I sell is my SKILLS and EXPERTISE.
I specialize in custom-made meals and protein execution (such as breaking down and cooking seafoods, beefs, chicken, lamb, venison, etc.) I use my knowledge to create a meal that is catered to your liking. I excel in Italian, Asian, Southern, and Mexican cuisines and creative dishes that are inspired by what I’ve learned over the years.
Meet Chef Avo And Flo, two students from The Culinary Institute of America, with 30 years combined experience as chefs! Chef Flo (aka: Lee) started cooking at age 7 for his family. Since then, his dream and ambition are to own a food truck and open a hotel/restaurant.
Chef Avo (aka: Amanda) grew to love cooking and applied for college and was accepted to the Culinary Institute of America. Her goals also include owning own a food truck. They both love cooking homemade meals from scratch. So, if you’re looking for real home cooked meals, that are original, look no further!
Frequently Asked Questions
GFOOD is a marketplace app designed for foodies in search of homemade authentic cuisines. The app allows you to purchase or sell home-cooked meals. We connect the local community Foodies with food safety-certified Hosts (home cooks). Our Hosts prepare their specialty dishes right in their own homes, where they can offer to host a meal at their location OR the foodie can pick up fresh cuisine ready to go home with them. All of this happens right from the host’s home so the food is fresh and hot and ready to go!
Currently, we are operating only in the state of Texas. We plan to expand to other states soon.
We are here to help! If you need additional assistance after reviewing our website and app, you can message us from the app, send an email to [email protected], or call (806) 440-1708.

At GFOOD we respect the time our Hosts put into creating their cuisines.
We require the foodie to cancel 24 hours prior to the scheduled booking date/time. If the foodie books a request within the 24-cancellation window, they may cancel without fee, if done so within 10 minutes of booking the request.

The amount you can earn as a GFOOD Host depends on a variety of factors, including the number of meals you sell, your menu prices, and the number of guests you attract. We encourage hosts to set competitive prices and offer unique dining experiences to increase their earnings.
