Charles Heineke is passionate about food. He's also passionate
about his clients and what they eat! Early mornings will find him
shopping the markets for the freshest, sustainable foods available in
San Diego County. This likeable, laid back, native San Diegan began
his flirtation with food at the age of 17 when he worked for the
Hanalei Hotel as a dishwasher. He quickly moved through the ranks
and earned a coveted spot as a line cook in what was a bustling
kitchen where multitasking was a necessity. Like all flirtations, this
one burned out and Charles left the culinary world in search of what
he thought would be his “true” career path. Several years passed and
finally at 25 he realized that food
was his passion and he really loved
it. He returned to school entering Mesa College to complete his
education in food service production and going on to Grossmont
College to complete his education in food service management.

After college, he made his way through several restaurants and
hotels continuously developing the skills that would serve him well
into the future.  Believing in the philosophy of keeping a balance
between making a living and living a life, Charles became the Chef at
Mission Bay Hospital where for over 15 years, he developed dietary
programs that met the demanding health needs of both patients,
staff and visitors alike. On any given day over 200 meals were
prepared that were nutritionally sound and delicious. Charles believes
We are a different kind of meal service company.
How is that possible? Our careful attention to detail combined with
over 25 years of experience providing healthy and nutritious meals
to thousands of people makes it all possible. Each order is delivered
fresh, never frozen, to your home or office within hours of
preparation. Each meal is made from scratch, using the finest
sustainable ingredients seasonally available. Made from all natural
ingredients with no preservatives or additives and 100% trans fat

Let's be honest, anyone can buy a frozen dinner at the supermarket
or order a frozen meal online, you can even go to the pick up
window of your favorite restaurant for take out. What sets us apart
from the rest is that
we are your personal chef, helping you to eat
healthy, well balanced meals without all the fuss of grocery
shopping, cooking and the never ending clean up afterwards
.
Each week we will tempt you with an original menu that reflects both our passion for great food
and our commitment to healthy eating. What could be more simple and delicious? After all, with
all the decisions that you make each and every day why not let our chefs spoil you with a great
meal for you, your family and friends.
healthy does not have to be boring or complicated! He is an expert at creating fresh foods that have bright
flavors while being budget conscious, easy to prepare and allow for eating well even when life becomes busy and
stressful.  Charles has also held the distinctions of Personal Chef and Assistant Food Service Director of the
Rancho Bernardo Presbyterian Church.  And Charles believes in educating food enthusiasts
by offering cooking
classes for all ages and expert levels at The RB Classic Cooking Kitchen
and the Poway Adult School Cooking
Program.


Charles’s first priority has always remained the same, his client’s wellbeing. His life long love affair with food
shines through each time he begins to create a meal. Building on a reputation of hard work, good food and
consistently good service, Charles subscribes to the belief that cooking should come from a “real kitchen”, one
that is dedicated to culinary honesty, fresh food, uncomplicated dishes that are affordable and ingredients that
are readily available. His approach to food is a passionate one that encompasses boundless energy and curiosity.
This curiosity has led him to create RB Classic Cooking & Catering. Charles believes good food shared with family
and friends connects us to each other in so many ways. Laughter and conversation creates the communion we
all long for in such chaotic times. This is what sustains us and helps us face each day with hope. RB Classic
Cooking & Catering has afforded him the opportunity to pursue his passion of bringing families together in a
hectic world by providing high quality, fresh cooked meals that are delivered to their door.
