What Customers Are Saying
“…Preparing my turkey meatballs, pasta
and salad dish was a great experience…
easy and fun! Best of all my family loved
the food. Thanks for this great service
Brought it home, opened it up, and
all of a sudden, I could cook!
The food was excellent. I had been using Plated before hearing about you, and there is
really no contest. In terms of cooking enjoyment, price, ability to pick up food, less
waste, superior ingredients, Tomato Sherpa is on to something incredible. Excited for
next week!
What customers are saying
I just wanted you to know that each Tuesday feels like Christmas when I receive the black bag!
Thank you for such a fun way to cook and even better I learn something new each week about
the dish I am preparing.
