Dinner On The Table – A Social Enterprise Helping Sydney Families
Calling all tired parents!
Do you need someone else to cook dinner for you tonight?
And are you interested in doing something good for another Sydney family whilst you eat?
Instead of calling for takeaway, you can plan ahead and order a lovely home-cooked meal from Dinner On The Table.
What is Dinner On The Table?
Dinner On The Table is a social enterprise, selling meals via the website which can be delivered to your home or office. Simply heat the meals and eat them up.
You save time on shopping and cooking (but sadly you still have to wash up.)
Meantime, Dinner On The Table is providing meals to families who have a child with a disability. Delivering two dinners a week is enormously helpful for the families supported.
Not only do they save the cost of those dinners, they feel cared for. And what greater gift is there, for a family whose load is heavier than most of ours?
Why I Support Dinner On The Table
Can I confess that since I have been working more, I’ve certainly been cooking less.
Although all my kids would love me to order in pizza twice a week, I tend to buy in meals like these ones, so that there’s always something healthy in the freezer.
And can I also say that I’m out and proud about not doing all the cooking in my house…. there’s absolutely nothing wrong with letting someone else do what they are good at.
Not always being at the stove every afternoon means I am enjoying the cooking I do a lot more. Also I’m drinking less wine as I’d got into a few bad habits there for a while.
How to order
You can order from Dinner On The Table’s website at any time.
To get a reminder, simply sign up for the Dinner On The Table website then each week’s menu is emailed to you on a Wednesday evening.
Order by Friday night for dinners delivered on Tuesdays weekly across Sydney.
Most meals are offered in three sizes. A large size feeds 3-4 adults, a medium size feeds 2-3 adults, while small sizes feed 1-2 adults.

Who’s Behind Dinner On The Table?
Sydney mother of three and former OT and researcher Rachel Golding is the founder of this social enterprise. Rachel’s friends had been asking her to provide some of her home cooked meals when they were busy.
Rachel realised that she could turn her passions for food and for supporting vulnerable families into a sustainable business. Now, with her team, she works from a commercial kitchen, sending dinners out all over Sydney.

Isn’t it a treat to have a break, and even better to find a healthy home cooked alternative to takeaway?

Disclaimer: Dinner On The Table got in touch after they read that we were sick and that life was tricky with Teen19. Pies were sent to help us, and they were delicious. I’m now a subscriber and proud to order dinners from this Sydney social enterprise.
