A new business

in Fayetteville is ready to answer the call from folks who are too busy

to get their own meals on the table but don't want to eat out every single

meal.

Dinner's Ready

was started this year by Susan Dipuma, a personal chef who has loved cooking

all of her life but is new to the cooking profession. Her specialty, as

with other personal chefs in the area, is to find out what you like to

eat and come right into your home to cook it.

A typical client

sits down with her for an interview, during which she learns various food

likes and dislikes, along with other important information such as food

allergies and dietary restrictions. Then she prepares a menu.

After the client

approves the menu, everyone agrees on a cooking day. Dipuma goes out that

morning and shops for the food, so it's fresh, then comes to the client's

home and starts cooking, which can take 3-6 hours depending upon what

and how much is being cooked.

"I have

a moblie kitchen in my car," she said. "Pots, pans I bring everything

with me."

When she's

finished, there's food for a few days or a week for some hungry family

to eat whenever convenient. The food can be frozen or refrigerated if

necessary.

Dipuma, who

moved with her family from Suwanee to Fayetteville six months ago, has

a few local clients already lined up and has been busy cooking for family

and friends, "testing recipes," as she put it. A member of the

American Personal Chef Association, she serves the entire metro Atlanta

area.
