Perfectly cooked meals
delivered for a week
to any address in Switzerland and Liechtenstein

You can place a single order, or if you like our service, set a frequency that suits your lifestyle. There’s no obligation. You don’t need to know in advance how often you want to order; it’s very flexible. We have found that our current customers have 3 preferred ordering methods. Planners” plan their deliveries for the next 4 weeks. They increase or decrease their orders, skip one or more weeks, and even change the address when they travel in Switzerland. The “Spontaneous” buy from time to time when they feel like treating their family or friends to an excellent dinner or lunch. Travellers” freeze orders for an indefinite period when they are on holiday, for example, and release them on their return. You can also ask us to delete your account – we’ll be sorry, but we’ll do it immediately at your request.

Reducing our impact on the planet is fundamental to us. That’s why we work on pre-ordering; this approach allows us to have ZERO food waste. 99% of our packaging is recyclable or reusable. We provide a free mailing label with every 4th box so that you can send the ice blocks back to us in a cardboard box. We reuse the ice blocks and the cardboard. You can recycle a cardboard box with other papers. You can compost the thin wooden trays as well as the compostable vacuum bags.

The best-before date is stated on the packaging. It is 5 to 7 days after delivery. We recommend that you eat your meals within the first few days after delivery. If you can’t finish your meals before the use-by date, you can store them in the freezer. It is important to defrost them slowly in your fridge to preserve their quality. Quick defrosting in a microwave or at room temperature is not recommended.

Imaginez une nourriture saine. Cela vous met-il l’eau à la bouche ? Si ce n’est pas le cas, vous êtes nombreux à le penser. Souvent, la notion d’alimentation saine évoque des images de salades vert foncé, de tofu caoutchouteux sans assaisonnement ou de yaourt allégé. Alors que le “plaisir de manger” est associé aux aliments sucrés, gras, aux repas et snacks frits. C’est précisément sur ce point que la politique nutritionnelle nationale suisse 2017-2024 doit être améliorée. Elle se concentre sur l’éducation et l’accessibilité mais ne tient absolument pas compte du comportement, comme si le fait de savoir ce qu’est une alimentation saine pouvait empêcher une personne de commander un hamburger en ligne ou d’acheter un paquet de chips à l’épicerie.
L’image agréable d’une alimentation saine est une grave lacune de notre politique nutritionnelle. Au Japon, par exemple, l’une des directives diététiques est “profitez de vos repas”. Le Japon a la plus grande longévité au monde.
Il est scientifiquement prouvé que le plaisir et la satisfaction liés à l’alimentation sont essentiels à un régime alimentaire sain. Au contraire, les émotions négatives liées à l’alimentation, comme le regret, la culpabilité et la honte, ont de réelles conséquences sur notre bien-être – et pas seulement pour des raisons sociales. Le plaisir déclenche une meilleure digestion. L’anticipation de la satisfaction liée à la nourriture indique à notre système nerveux parasympathique de déclencher sa réponse de relaxation et d’activer votre digestion tout en relaxant les muscles de votre tractus gastro-intestinal et en augmentant les fluides digestifs. L’inverse peut se produire si vous mangez quelque chose que vous n’aimez pas ; vous déclenchez une réaction de stress à votre corps.

Imagine healthy food. Does it make your mouth water? If not, many of you think so. Often, the notion of healthy food conjures up images of dark green salads, rubbery tofu with no seasoning or low-fat yoghurt. Whereas ‘the pleasure of eating’ is associated with sugary, fatty foods, fried meals and snacks. This is precisely where Switzerland’s 2017-2024 national nutrition policy needs to improve. It focuses on education and accessibility but completely ignores behaviour, as if knowing what a healthy diet is could prevent someone from ordering a hamburger online or buying a packet of crisps in the grocery shop.
The pleasant image of healthy eating is a serious flaw in our nutrition policy. In Japan, for example, one of the dietary guidelines is “enjoy your meals”. Japan has the longest life expectancy in the world.
It has been scientifically proven that the pleasure and satisfaction associated with eating are essential to a healthy diet. On the contrary, negative emotions linked to food, such as regret, guilt and shame, have real consequences for our well-being – and not just for social reasons. Pleasure triggers better digestion. The anticipation of satisfaction from food tells our parasympathetic nervous system to trigger its relaxation response and activate your digestion while relaxing the muscles of your gastrointestinal tract and increasing digestive fluids. The opposite can happen if you eat something you don’t like; you trigger a stress response in your body.
