Judy Wood, a well-known chef in Calgary, has started a business like this. I think it was featured in the Herald last week.

Here it is:

Mise en Place -- a French term for having everything in place before cooking commences -- belongs to chef Judy Wood and business partner Kathleen Spelliscy. Their business is aimed at helping people build meals to take home or helping them assemble the meals in their own kitchens. There are various approaches.

Have you every watched one of those cooking shows on TV and commented that if you had everything chopped and measured out, that cooking could actually be fun? That's called mise en place. Think of mise en place as your own personal cooking show and our staff as your own personal sous chef.

Do you come home from a long day of work, activities, or driving all over town in busy Calgary traffic only to be greeted by the age old question, what's for dinner? Well, mise en placehas a solution for you! We do the work for you, so you won't have to.

There are a number of higher end take out places sprouting up all over the city. For example,

Saffron (fine Indian) 136, 3604 - 52 Ave NW

Boca Loca http://www.bocalocacalgary.com/

Cravings http://www.cravingsmarketrestaurant.com/

Mediterranea (1304 4th St. S.W.)http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/...e-bb48e8a83328
