Cook Me Fresh brings the joy of cooking fresh, healthy meals right into your home. Whether you’re looking for cost-effective solutions or want to create dishes using the very best ingredients, we tailor our guidance to suit your preferences, lifestyle, and budget.
Cook Me Fresh was created to bring real, practical cooking support into people’s homes. Founded by Gavin Akers—a chef with over 20 years of experience—our mission is to help you feel confident cooking fresh, healthy meals, whether you’re shopping on a budget or using the very best ingredients available.
Gav’s journey in food includes co-running a restaurant in British Columbia, Canada, co-owning the popular Flagstones Tapas Bar, running his own bakery, and gaining hands-on experience in butchery. He’s also delivered public food demonstrations for Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT) Council in Ynysangharad War Memorial Park, sharing his love of cooking with the wider community.
Whether it’s one-to-one support or small group demonstrations, everything is tailored to your kitchen, your lifestyle, and what you actually want to eat.
Based in South Wales, Cook Me Fresh focuses on local, seasonal ingredients and smart shopping advice—so you can cook well without the stress.
At the heart of it all, it’s not about being perfect. It’s about feeling good, eating well, and enjoying the process.
All services include a free 30-minute home consultation to tailor everything to your needs.
All sessions include a shopping list with advice on what to buy and where to find the best affordable, quality ingredients
