Good Eats Kitchen stresses convenience in a way that no other restaurant has ever done.
Good Eats Kitchen is a Lafayette-based business that recently opened its first store in Ichiban Square in Baton Rouge. It is the flagship store for all future plans of expansion for Good Eats Kitchen. Good Eats Kitchen specializes in offering convenience to those with busy lifestyles and who do not always have the time to go buy ingredients and cook meals for themselves.
“We’re taking our background in fine dining, taking a fast-casual restaurant, and putting it in a to-go box,” said brand and marketing director Trey Dykes. “So really your only job is to buy, heat and eat. Make a decision on pretty much the meals you’d like to eat, either now or through the week, so you don’t really have to buy a certain amount.”
Good Eats Kitchen also takes its convenience even further by allowing customers to order meals online through their website.
“We do have an online pre-order portion for the business where you can pre-order for the week,” Dykes said. “We even offer some extra value there with some daily meal packs. So if you’re more of a planner, or looking for that week -long value, you can pre-order online at mygoodeatskitchen.com or come into one of our three locations in Baton Rouge and grab what you need.”
All of the food found at Good Eats Kitchen is prepared with a level of quality far above what most people consider when they think of meal prep.
“First off, we don’t really like the term ‘meal prep,’” Dykes said. “Meal prep is something that I think anyone could do at home if they have some chicken, veggies and rice. We want to take that to the next level. So we gave prepared foods, prepared meals, a fresh, helpful, chef-driven approach to prepared meals.”
One of the things that Good Eats Kitchen prides itself on is the high quality of all of the ingredients they use in their meals. This includes all-natural chicken and pork, grass-fed beef and bison and salmon that comes in twice a week.
Good Eats Kitchen offers many promotions that bargain shoppers and poor college students alike can take advantage of.
“You’ll see some different promotions throughout the year,” Dykes said. “Have it be free delivery during back to school … during times of high demand and high need, we’ll try to increase that convenience … and then finals week, as well.”
Overall, Good Eats Kitchen enjoys the fact that it provides convenience to the people of Baton Rouge and loves the fact that they are part of the community. And as they grow, they need more staff members, and hope they can provide good jobs for college students and others alike.
Good Eats Kitchen is located at 7673 Perkins Road and is open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, and from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. They currently have a limited time free meal offer on Facebook.
