| Kitchensurfing is an on-demand service for people who love food. It is re-defining the dining experience by directly connecting chefs to diners, and in the process, creating a more intimate and rewarding experience for everyone around the table. There’s a monumental shift that has taken place in the home – and more specifically at the dinnertable – in the last 50 years. The modern household has begun to evolve as a two-income home, and finding time to whip up a home-cooked meal is becoming nearly impossible. Even where the institution does still exist, traditional dinner conversation is losing out in the battle against our phones, tablets and television screens. The reality is that the family and community experience associated with sitting down at the dinner table is quickly becoming an ideal of the past. Kitchensurfing aims to change all of that. By empowering people to eat together and eat purposefully, its mission is to reinstate the idea of the “dinner table” for the modern household. Enter: Kitchensurfing Tonight. In a modern world starved for time, the problem of dinner is everyone’s, and Kitchensurfing Tonight is reinventing the dining experience through ease and convenience. For $25 per person, it allows busy couples and families to enjoy the experience of a freshly prepared dinner (in under 30 minutes), from a personal chef they know and trust, in the comfort of their own homes. And at a very competitive price, Kitchensurfing Tonight is the perfect alternative to takeout, for busy families who want to dine together (on plates, not out of boxes) around the table, with a meal that’s delicious and good for them, too. With four different product offerings, Kitchensurfing has any experience covered. Customers can book a chef same-day for a quick, hassle-free 30-minute meal on a Tuesday night; host a fancy cocktail party for 30 with an in-home, person chef; or plan a fun, interactive cooking experience with a group friends and family. Kitchensurfing sources sustainable and locally-grown ingredients that chefs use to create restaurant-caliber dishes in the comfort of one’s own home, whatever the occasion. | $1M / Seed / Feb 14, 2013 | ||
