Based in New York, Chefday hosts step-by-step videos of top chefs from the city – like Jehangir Mehta from Iron Chef America and Michelin-starred Chris Leahy – which are free to watch. If you decide to cook the meal yourself, you can order all the necessary ingredients to be delivered. Through a subscription option, customers will receive a recommended recipe via email every two weeks, which they can view before opting to order the ingredients, choose another recipe or skip until the following fortnight. In addition, Chefday donates one meal for every dish ordered to the Food Bank for NYC. They combine healthy recipes from well known award winning chefs with the possibility of directly buying all the ingredients. And all foodies know that can be an issue!
