There is something about a home-cooked meal. Something people would be willing to pay solid price for so they don't have to cook it or clean up afterward. Jim Renberg is looking to make that connection with his new company,
C'mon To My House.
The Sherwood Forest-based company provides a chef service at people’s houses. Renberg goes to a client’s home and throws a dinner party. There is no menu. No choice on the customer’s part. They just get to enjoy the home-cooked meal Renberg fixes for them without any of the hassle.
"It's an ever-changing menu," Renberg says. "If you were to come to my house you wouldn't choose from a menu. You would eat what I made you."
Renberg, who is also co-owner of preservation firm
Brush Park Studio, is looking at launching his firms as pop-ups out of the
Good Cakes and Bakes space on Livernois in the
Avenue of Fashion within the next few weeks.
"We're talking about it becoming permanent," Renberg says.
