Hi, I’m Austen Ezzell and I’m passionate about bringing people together with delicious food!

I grew up in a big family where home cooked meals were a priority. I had the pleasure of cooking with my nana and parents, learning so much and trying new recipes almost every week. (I can still picture my nana saying, “This is the best steak I’ve ever had” every time I prepare steak.)

I attended Marquette University while working in the restaurant industry. From bussing tables and serving to bartending, I discovered my passion was in enhancing guests’ dining experiences. I love being around people and creating memorable moments.

My passion evolved into something bigger in 2020 when I decided to bring fine dining to the comfort of people’s homes. MealSitters was born to help busy people spend more time in the moment and less time cooking and cleaning.

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is the ability to connect people through food.

I learned to cook at...

multiple different restaurant experiences during my 15 years and counting in the service industry. Bringing people together through food is our dream.
