What to put in a tiffin request
A tiffin is a packed, home-style meal delivered on a schedule, usually for weekday lunches or dinners. The details that decide whether a cook can take it on are simple, and they are the ones worth writing down.
Veg, non-veg, Jain or halal. Lunch, dinner or both, and on which days. What goes in it: a dal or curry, a sabzi, rice, and how many rotis. How spicy. Whether it is for one person or a family, and roughly what you want to spend per meal.
You do not need to know a cook or a menu. Describe your usual tiffin in your own words, and we match it to a cook who makes that kind of food.

Questions
Is there a tiffin cook on Prepared in Chicago today?
Not yet. Prepared is lining up local cooks for tiffin in Chicago, and requests tell us who to approach first. Send yours and we'll contact you when we have a cook who can make it. Nothing is ordered until you choose.
What goes in a tiffin?
Usually a dal or curry, a vegetable dish, rice and rotis, packed per meal. Every household's tiffin is different, so tell us what you want in yours and how many rotis.
Can I ask for Jain, halal or no onion-garlic tiffin?
Yes, say so in your request. A cook confirms what they can commit to before you order anything. Cooks work in home and commercial kitchens, so no one can promise a meal is free of an allergen.
How much does a tiffin service cost?
Each cook sets their own prices. Put your budget per meal in the request and we'll only put you in touch with cooks who can work to it.
Lunch, dinner or both?
Any of these, on the days you choose. Tell us which meals and which days, and whether the tiffin is for one person or a family.
