What Our Users Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What if we have completely different food preferences?
OttoChef excels at finding common ground! We analyze both partners' preferences and suggest meals in your overlap zone. For meals where tastes diverge, we offer easy modification tips—like making a dish with the spice on the side, or preparing a base meal with different protein options.
Can you handle one vegetarian and one meat-eater?
Absolutely! This is one of our most common use cases. We suggest meals that are satisfying for both (think hearty veggie dishes that won't leave the meat-eater feeling deprived), plus meals where you can easily add protein to one portion.
How do you handle different portion sizes?
You can set different calorie and portion preferences for each partner. If one person is bulking and the other is eating lighter, we'll adjust the recipes and shopping list accordingly.
Do you have date night recipe ideas?
Yes! We have a special "Date Night" category with impressive but achievable recipes perfect for cooking together. Each includes wine pairing suggestions, timing guides for cooking together, and even playlist recommendations.
What if our schedules are different?
Tell us your weekly schedule and we'll plan accordingly. Quick 15-minute meals for the night one person works late, batch prep suggestions for busy weeks, and special meals for nights you're both home.
