Meet the Chef Behind Prep by Chef

Brendan Ward is a Dublin-based chef with a passion for doing things properly. Trained in professional kitchens and recognised by The Times, Brendan has spent years mastering the craft of cooking real food from scratch — dishes built on quality ingredients, time, and genuine care.

Why Prep by Chef?

Brendan grew frustrated watching people settle for less — processed meals, shortcuts, and compromises that had nothing to do with real cooking. He believed there was a better way: bring the skill of a professional kitchen directly to people's homes, without the fuss.

That's the idea behind Prep by Chef. Every dish is cooked by Brendan using proper ingredients, proper technique, and proper care. No shortcuts. No fillers. Just great food, ready to heat and enjoy.

Real Food. Properly Made.

From slow-cooked beef ragu to family-sized cottage pie, every meal is prepared fresh by Brendan himself. The same standards he holds in a professional kitchen, brought to your dinner table — because good food shouldn't be a luxury.

"I want people to eat the way they deserve to eat. Proper food, made properly." — Brendan Ward
