Posted 19 Dec 2022 Dear Friends, Is there any food catering service in Munich for individuals? In Dubai we have Right Bite and Kcal delivering our meals every morning in a bag. Looking for something similiar, preferably calorie counted. Many thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 20 Dec 2022 Nothing??? I will settle for any kind of food catering for homes! Doesn't need to be healthy! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 20 Dec 2022 There are a few similar "meals on wheels" operators designed to help those too frail, disabled or ill to cook for themselves in Munich. They also are helpful as they will alert authorities if you do not open your door when they ring. If you are on benefits or low pension, you can get a discount if elegible from the Sozialamt. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 20 Dec 2022 Lots of people in our village SE of Stuttgart use Bofrost. : they deliver weekly frozen complete meals as well as fruit and vegetables to your door. Maybe also in Munich? Our local Senior's home does meal on wheels for modest price. Don't need to be a senior either. Also if you are homebound with a broken leg for instance. In German: Essen auf Rädern Good luck! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many people want to lose weight, stay healthy, etc. They are usually done under the supervision of a nutritionist. You choose your monthly plan and every day your food is delivered early morning. Also cooking is a very time consuming process and there are many who'd rather have that outsourced. For now, services for "seniors" will do. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks snowing! We got the right tips, I think we will find something. FYI, this is not for seniors. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a very popular meal-kit provider in Germany called Hello Fresh: https://www.hellofresh.com/. Although it isn't exactly what you are looking for, perhaps it's a potential middle ground. They don't provide cooked meals, rather they send you all the ingredients and instructions and you cook yourself. It also includes calorie information. It saves time on grocery shopping and meal planning. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 20 Dec 2022 Have a look at these websites…. https://www.juit.com/de https://getvoila.com/ If you Google ‘diät essen lieferservice’, shows lots of similar websites. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesnt appear these will work. They require manual input, courier delivery, etc. What works for me is that I choose my monthly plan, pay, and they deliver to my door every morning. But I will check some more. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 20 Dec 2022 I would be tempted to go to the nearest kebab joint, who also likely does a selection of hot and cold dishes at lunchtime, and see if they could accommodate you. People are sometimes flexible if only you talk to them. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some choose pre-diabetis plans, some choose low cholesterol... For me it has been working fine for 15 years. I don't have to deal or think about food. Just eat it! Hahahaha. 1st one looks promising but does not seem to deliver in Munich? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delivery guys are usually not cooking the food. These companies (that i linked) outsource it to hotels. But now both have their own kitchens. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
