Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Weekly Menu at freemium against Nelko's subscription. Nelko's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and ratings volume (21K vs 25). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Weekly Menu sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per year and Nelko sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
