PeachDish
This service is in business since 2013, and it’s based in Atlanta. Founder Hadi Irvani wanted to name it as a sweet fruit of Georgia soil, and to give meals characteristics of southern cuisine! Soon after that, PeachDish incorporated to company’s policy one more idea – only organic and Non-GMO ingredients from local purveyors! Make sure to check their website if you’re for real southern taste!

Home Chef
In 2013, not long after it was established, their team was starting to grow! Ideas of home-cooking for your loved ones and reduction of food waste, altogether with passion and hard work, brought this meal kit service between top three in the USA! Because of the high demand, last year they gave an option for customers to buy Home Chef meals in certain grocery stores! See what suits you better and start looking at their menu!

Our Comparison
Meal Plans
Home Chef recipes are designed by creative chefs who manage to include ingredients and flavors from around the world but still simple enough so anyone can prepare them in 30 minutes. On the other hand, PeachDish is very southern-flavored, and yet there are no specialized Menus. Each week menu includes three seasonal meals, six meals changing from time to time, and category “Sweets.”
The first thing that needs to be done when ordering is to pick between Guest and Subscriber account! Both services have some dis/advantages, so make sure to read more on the website! PeachDish is specific in not having meal recipes separated into Plans. One more fact is serving number, which goes to twelve people per order/box! The minimum amount for orders is $45!
Home Chef weekly offers a variety of dinner meals, 5-minute-lunch recipes, fruity addons, and a section on their website for all-type-kitchenware! Lunch meal prices are $7.99 per serving and addons you can get for $4.95 per serving! They can serve six people max with one order twice to six times a week! Every order +$49 gets free delivery!
The Quality of the Ingredients
Both services work successfully for six years now, and one of the reasons is the quality of ingredients! Their suppliers are local, nearby farms, and ranchers who share the same idea of organic, Non-Gmo food! Customer can tell by the taste of meals that it tastes so much better when ingredients are carefully selected! Because of their transparent supplying chain, we say both companies win this category!
Nutritional Value
Customer reviews say that PeachDish portion size isn’t enough for an adult, while after eating Home Chef meal you’ll be full for hours! They have two Plans for weight-loss, with calorie amount of 250 or less. Neither of these companies offers specialized menus like keto or paleo, but they do offer complete customization of recipes! Now, about those reviews…Customer is always right, right? Home Chef takes another one!
Recipe Variety
PeachDish has Sweet Menu, which is an advantage for some customers! But, Home Chef has fruity addons which take 5 minutes to prep and are much healthier. HomeChef also offers a fantastic Lunch menu with meals from $7.99! Some of the meals on PeachDish Menu need to be slow-cooked for 175 minutes! So, it’s not so economical. Home Chef sells kitchenware, and again it’s clear who has more to give!
The Packaging
PeachDish was the first one who created their recycling-program! They even pack some food in fabric bags! But, their delivery prices are enormous (can go up to $27 per box)!
Home Chef is better rated than PeachDish, according to general reviews. Their plastic bags are now famous, grouping ingredients for each meal because it saves your time! Thumbs up for them, for being environment-friendly and budget-friendly!
