Our Story

Hi, I'm Sami, the creator of NeighborMeals.

Like many of you, balancing a busy schedule meant I rarely had the time to cook proper, healthy meals at home. I was always returning after a long day of activities with an empty fridge and no energy.

One day, a neighbor in my building suggested cooking meals twice a week that the rest of us could simply place orders for. It was an absolute game-changer. Suddenly, I had access to incredible, warm, home-cooked food without the stress of preparing it myself.

But there was another side to the story. Since I live alone, on the rare occasions I did find time to cook something complex and exciting, I'd always end up with four or five extra portions. Sadly, much of this good food ended up being thrown away.

That was my "Eureka!" moment. What if we could connect neighbors who love to cook—and often make too much—with neighbors who just want a healthy meal after a long day?
