About MamChef

One evening a home-cooked dinner saved the day — and we realised how many great cooks in our neighbourhood had no easy way to sell their food. MamChef started with a simple question: what if finding fresh, homemade meals was as easy as calling a taxi?

Today MamChef helps home cooks earn reliably and gives customers a better, affordable alternative to takeout.

MamChef is a two-sided marketplace: home cooks sell, customers order, and we pay out via Stripe.
