Let's welcome Chef'd to the neighborhood!

The crowd-funded start up, Chef’d, celebrated the opening of their 40,000 square foot facility in El Segundo with a Launch Party on Friday, March 27.

The event featured tours of the facility, food trucks, DJ, bar and a big screen countdown of the website going live. The facility parking lot was filled with hundreds of attendees – investors, friends, family, locals and dozens of employees sporting orange logoed t-shirts.

Chef’d is a meal kit business that delivers pre-portioned fresh ingredients and recipes to your doorstep to cook in the comfort of your home.

Customers can go online and browse hundreds of recipes from famous chefs and popular restaurants. The ingredients will be delivered within 48 hours in a well-insulated and temperature controlled box.

Chef’d sources ingredients directly from trusted farms and ranches to ensure they’re using the freshest products in the meal kits.

The ‘no subscription’ model allows customers to order and reorder their favorite meals as often as they like and the recipes can accommodate all dietary needs.

Along with the recipes and fresh ingredients, each shipment contains:

• Detailed instructions with step-by-step photos.
• Perfect wine and beer pairings.
• “Kitchen 411”— helpful hints and info on culinary techniques and ingredients.
• Meal description with the skill level of the recipe and estimated cook time.
• List of ingredients, nutritional information, spice level and any common allergens present.
