You've obviously thought this through. Have you checked with your local city offices to see if they allow this type of business? Do you need to adhere to food industry regulations? You may be required to do your cooking from a "professional" kitchen that has passed food safety requirements.

The idea itself sounds good. I can certainly see families with both parents working taking advantage of your service. However, with people tightening their purse strings this service might be considered an extra expense that people may not want to pay for.

The fact that your wife is chef is a huge plus! That will allow you to charge more for your service.

Don't forget to write your business plan! Keep us posted on your progress.
