Hi, I'm Sharon

Good food, made close to home.

I started Welaka Eats for one reason: nobody wants to spend the first afternoon of their vacation pushing a cart around a grocery store. If you're coming to the river to fish, boat, or just sit still for a few days, the food should be the easy part.

Everything is shopped fresh locally, cooked by me, and built around your group — not a set menu. Whether that's a stocked fridge for a family of ten or a candlelit dinner for two, you tell me what a good stay looks like and I'll take it from there.

Questions & Answers

How far in advance should I book?

A week or two is ideal, especially for holiday weekends and private chef nights. That said, reach out even if your stay is a few days away — if I have the date open, I'll make it work.

Are groceries included in the price?

The starting prices cover my time, shopping, prep and delivery. Groceries are billed at cost on top of that, and I'll always confirm an estimated total with you before I shop so there are no surprises.

What if we have allergies or picky eaters?

Just tell me. Gluten-free, dairy-free, nut allergies, kid plates, low-carb — all of it is normal and none of it costs extra. It's easier to plan around than to work around later.

Do you come to my rental, or do I pick things up?

I come to you. Fridge stocking and dinners are set up in your rental before you arrive, and boat day coolers can be dropped at your dock or door on your schedule.

What areas do you serve?

The river and surrounding communities. If you're not sure whether your rental is in range, send me the address — I'll tell you straight away.

How do I pay?

We'll confirm the package and total before your stay, and I'll send simple payment instructions with your confirmation. No apps to download.

Can you do something that isn't on the list?

Almost always yes. Rehearsal dinners, birthday spreads, multi-day meal plans, a grazing table for a big arrival night — ask and I'll build it.
