Food Service: The Foodery Boston


While taking one of my infrequent walks around the Boston Public Market, I happened upon something new - The Foodery Boston.  A short chat with the fella stationed there revealed that they were only going to be there this week, if you stop by and give them your email you can get $20 off, and unlike services such as Blue Apron, this delivery service brings you meals fully cooked and refrigerated with Sunday only delivery.  No subscription required.



A quick online search pulled up a few similar services:

Send A Meal - food delivered frozen across the nation (all 50 states) though they are based in Austin, TX
Home Bistro - flash frozen and delivered within the contiguous United States, reheated within 10 minutes
Munchery - cooking kits are shipped nationwide, however their prepared meals are delivered chilled and only available in 4 membership areas at this time: San Francisco, Seattle, New York City, and LA.
Healthy Chef Creations - food delivered fresh either by the meal plan with free ship, or a la carte
