From R$ 220.00
One cooking session in your kitchen, a full week of fresh, portioned meals in your fridge. For Campinas professionals running on long R&D hours and repetitive delivery apps, this is the upgrade that actually sticks.
Between CIATEC deadlines, Unicamp research schedules, and R&D sprints at the multinationals, cooking nightly is the first thing to go. A meal prep chef replaces the endless Iguatemi food-court rotation with a week of real food, cooked in your own kitchen.
Whether you're tracking protein targets, eating low-carb, or managing a gluten-free household, your chef builds the weekly menu to your numbers — portioned and labeled so there's zero guesswork on a Wednesday night.
Campinas chefs shop the Mercadão's cheese and fresh fish stalls, organic produce from the ANC growers, hortifruti from Holambra, and figs from neighboring Valinhos in season. Weekly meals here taste like the region, not like a lunchbox.

Tell the chef your goals, restrictions, and preferences — from fit menus with lean proteins to comfort dishes like a lighter virado à paulista. You approve the menu and shopping list before each week.
The chef arrives with fresh ingredients and cooks for 4-6 hours in your kitchen — typically 10-20 portions — then portions, labels, and stores everything for fridge or freezer.
Every container is labeled with contents and reheating instructions. The kitchen is left spotless, and the next session is booked on your schedule — weekly or biweekly.
Menus change every week. One week might lean Nikkei — teriyaki salmon, gohan, sunomono — the next comfort paulista or Mediterranean. Campinas's food culture gives chefs plenty of range.
A typical week covers lunches and dinners for one or two people, or family dinners for four. You define the mix of meals, snacks, and extras.
Meals are packed in fridge- and freezer-ready containers with dates and reheating notes. Your chef plans what's eaten fresh early in the week versus frozen for later.
Chefs source everything — including trips to the Mercado Municipal or organic feiras when the menu calls for it. Ingredient costs are settled transparently, separate from the service fee.
Full cleanup is part of every session. You come home to a stocked fridge and zero evidence anyone cooked for six hours.
Campinas has capital-city salaries and interior-city logistics. Researchers at Unicamp and the Sirius synchrotron, engineers at the R&D centers of IBM, Dell, and Bosch, and agribusiness families all share the same problem: demanding weeks, good kitchens at home in Cambuí, Taquaral, or Swiss Park, and no time to use them. Weekly meal prep with a personal chef closes that gap better than any delivery app — fresher food, real variety, and a cost per meal that beats daily iFood orders.
The local pantry helps. A Campinas meal prep chef can build weeks around organic vegetables from the ANC growers' association, hortifruti from the Holambra cooperative, cheeses and fresh fish from the century-old Mercadão, and — in season — figo roxo and guava from Valinhos for desserts and salads. It's weekly food with an origin, not an assembly line.
It also flexes with Campinas's calendar: lighter fit menus after the December confraternização season, caipira comfort dishes in June when festa junina cravings hit, and quick-assembly family dinners during school terms in Barão Geraldo and Parque Prado.
Local Tip
Ask your chef to plan a Mercadão run into the first session — the mortadela sandwich stalls get the fame, but the fish, cheese, and spice stalls are what make a week of meals in Campinas genuinely better than delivery.
Meal prep in Campinas is priced per week and scales with portion count, menu complexity, and dietary customization. Ingredients are billed separately at cost, so you see exactly what goes into your week.
