Premium, Locally-sourced Organic Meals Delivered To Your Fridge Every Week

About Dara

PRIVATE CHEF & ELITE SPORTS NUTRITIONIST

I didn’t start Platinum Plate with a business plan, I started it with a cutting board and a conviction.

Years ago, I was just like many of my clients: busy, burned out, and trying to eat healthy in a world full of shortcuts and stress. I was constantly looking for clean food that didn’t taste bland or leave me feeling worse than before. And I realized something powerful: what we put into our bodies directly affects how we feel, think, and perform.

So I began cooking. First for myself, then for friends. Then for athletes, high-performers, and eventually for some of the most successful (and busiest) people in South Florida.

But what started as a personal obsession with clean, performance-driven food evolved into something much bigger.

Platinum Plate is now a private meal prep service built around one core belief: you shouldn’t have to sacrifice your health or time to eat well. I create gourmet, organic meals using local ingredients—designed to support your energy, focus, and longevity—delivered fresh to your door every week. No fluff, no meal kits, no guesswork. Just real food, prepared by someone who understands how much your time, health, and performance matter.

Whether you're a pro athlete, a business executive, or a parent trying to keep up with life—I'm here to make sure your fridge fuels you like your goals depend on it.

Because they do.

TESTIMONIALS

What our clients say about us?

Dan

Spending the weekend in Fort Lauderdale with Matt and the other participants will prove to be life changing for me.  Such a simple gentle shift with guided integration!  

I believe the hardest part of this weekend will be going back to normal food!  The cuisine created this weekend was amazing.  Food made with such care and love that it was impossible to have anything but an empty plate

Chris

I found myself looking forward to every next meal.

I never thought I’d rave about cooked carrots or mashed sweet potatoes, however, I find myself craving them right now as I write this.

Thank you so much for your attention to detail.

It was a real pleasure.
