Uptown Station

Starting this Tuesday (May 10), A La Carte will be offering a new service. Family Meal is designed for busy moms and dads that need to get dinner on the table during the week but just don’t have the time. It’s about accomodating tball, soccer, dance, and every other imaginable thing that keeps us families busy. The meal will be composed of a protein, starch, and vegetable and will feed a family of four. It will be par-cooked, meaning that they will most likely need to take it home and pop it in the oven for 10-15 minutes. The food will come packaged in oven safe disposable pans and will be ready to serve once finished reheating.The special will run weekly, Tuesday through Thursday. Orders need to be place by 4 pm and pick up is available thereafter.

I think that the clientele of Uptown Station and the family friendly community of FWB will enjoy this offering. I would like for you to help me market this to all of the families that watch what you are doing. This is part of our concept and we are finally at the point where we feel comfortable completing it.

My selling point on this is the convenience, ease, and afford-ability of being able to enjoy a well rounded meal. It’s about putting away the Happy Meals and feeding your kids something nutritious. I went to McDonald’s the other day and ordered for 4. I spent $20 on fast food and did not receive one thing that would do anything other than aid in poor health. Family Meal at A La Carte will cost, on average, $35-$40 to feed your entire family of four. That equates to only $10 per person.

I myself am a mother of two, a business owner, and an individual. Something like this would make my life alot easier……we should run with this. Please let me know what other information I can provide for you.
