We cook our meals in the kitchen, just as you would at home, only on a larger scale.
The use of traditional recipes and natural ingredients is what makes our dishes so authentically flavorful—they are crafted from the real deal. Dedication to simple, wholesome ingredients is normal in your home kitchen or at a favorite restaurant, but it is exceptionally rare in the world of ready meals.
No additives.
No preservatives.
Just as you wouldn’t add taste enhancers or preservatives when cooking at home, neither do we. Real food does not need enhancement. Although the modern food industry often relies on additives to extend shelf life, we’ve found a better way. Our meals are free from artificial additives, allowing the natural flavors of each ingredient to shine.

Wisdom from the past.
Freeze-drying bridges two ancient food preservation methods: freezing and drying.
We combine time-tested methods with a modern twist. This process not only preserves the flavor and nutritional value of our ingredients but also ensures our meals stay fresh for an extended period of time.
Long shelf life.
No fridge required.
Freeze-drying technique not only captures the essence of our meals but also greatly extends their shelf life. Chef Urban’s dishes can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 year, eliminating the need for refrigeration while preserving quality and freshness. This convenience is perfect for busy lifestyles, offering you reliable, ready-to-eat meals with minimal waste.
