The Healthy Eating “Dining In” Alternative

At an age when many women are sending children off to college or even becoming grandmothers, Helena Ess decided to go to culinary school.  A self-avowed “foodie” who spent every spare minute in the kitchen, she knew it was time to leave Corporate America to pursue her real dream – building her own business to cook for other people.  Knowing first-hand the challenges of putting a healthy, nutritious meal on the table at the end of a long, hectic day became the inspiration for T.H.E. Dinner Solution, Personal Chef Service.

Helena is a gold-medal graduate of the Academy of Culinary Arts of Atlantic-Cape Community College, Mays Landing, New Jersey and was valedictorian of her class.  She holds an Associates Degree in Culinary Arts and a Bachelors Degree in Liberal Studies.  Prior to moving to Greenville, she worked in fine-dining restaurants in Bucks County, PA, and most recently for one of Philadelphia’s premier off-premise caterers.  In this capacity she has cooked for people such as Ed Snider, owner of the Philadelphia Flyers, Senator Arlen Spector and comedian Bill Cosby.  She is a member of the Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce, Greenville Business and Professional Women and is a Premier Member of the United States Personal Chef Association and is committed to its high standards of professionalism.
