Why Tommy Sugo is Perth NDIS Favourite for Meal Delivery
G’day Perth! When you’re juggling NDIS plans, fatigue, mobility challenges or just a crazy week, the last thing you want is to spend hours shopping, chopping and cooking. That’s exactly why thousands of NDIS participants (and their families) have made Tommy Sugo their go-to for meal preparation and delivery across the entire Perth metro.
We’re a 100% Western Australian family business that cooks proper, restaurant-quality Italian meals fresh every day, packs them with care, delivers them ice-cold to your door, and hands you perfect NDIS-compliant invoices so claiming is an absolute breeze. We’re not an NDIS-registered provider (and we’re totally upfront about that), but we’ve nailed being NDIS-friendly for self-managed and plan-managed participants.
The result? You eat like you’re at a Cottesloe café, your plan manager stays happy, and you get your evenings back.
Why Meal Preparation and Delivery Is a Game-Changer for NDIS Participants
Cooking isn’t always just about time – it’s about energy, strength, grip, balance, and sometimes even safety around hot stoves. The NDIS recognises this and allows funding under “Assistance with Daily Life” for meal preparation and delivery when it supports your goals around nutrition, independence and participation.
Yet most people get stuck with:
- Overpriced registered providers with tiny portions and boring menus
- Supermarket frozen meals that taste like regret
- Exhausting hours in the kitchen when your body is screaming “nope”
Tommy Sugo fixes all three in one delicious delivery.
How We Handle Preparation and Delivery (The Proper Way)
Fresh, From-Scratch Cooking Every Single Day Our chefs start early turning West Australian beef, free-range chicken, fresh veggies and real cheese into dishes like Slow-Cooked Beef Lasagne, Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni, Pumpkin & Goat Cheese Arancini, Jack Daniels Pork & Veal Ravioli and silky Gluten-Free Gnocchi. No powdered sauces, no cheap fillers – just food you’re proud to serve.
Blast-Chilled & Vacuum-Sealed for Maximum Freshness As soon as the dish is perfect, we blast-chill it, vacuum-seal each portion and label it clearly. That locks in flavour and gives you 7–10 days in the fridge or 3–6 months in the freezer.
Ice-Cold Delivery Across All of Perth Mandurah to Yanchep, Fremantle to Midland, Rockingham to Ellenbrook – if you’re in the metro area we’ll be at your door within 1–3 days, esky packed with ice bricks. Drivers even carry boxes inside if mobility is an issue.
NDIS-Compliant Invoices That Actually Get Approved Every order comes with a crystal-clear tax invoice showing ABN, GST, full item descriptions and pricing exactly how the NDIA and every major plan manager expects it. Claims usually clear in under a week.
