Food

Where is the food made?

Rest assured all our food is cooked by professional chefs in a FEHD approved food factory with inspections conducted regularly by FEHD officials.

What safety measures do you have in your kitchen?

We're glad you asked! Our kitchen premises is cleaned on a daily basis, professional pest controlled by LBS and subject to FEHD inspection on a regular basis.

Storage & Reheat Method

How LONG DOES THE food keep ?

If food is immediately kept under 4 degrees fridge, food can generally last 3 days. By using thermo seal technology we are able to significantly restrict airflow compared to traditional takeaway packaging. This actively limits the chances for food oxidistion and bacteria to grow.

Can the food be frozen to extend shelf life?

Whilst freezing meals if packaging is intact can boost shelf life, we recommend our customers consume the meals within 3 days for best taste.

How should I reheat the meals?

For convenience, reheat via microwave. We suggest peel the edge of the plastic lid, remove the sauce container and reheat in 30 second intervals based on desired results. Otherwise, removing food from packaging and using pan fry or steaming are also options you may consider .

Is there any way to recycle your packaging?

ABSOLUTELY! Please clean the bags we'll HAPPILY do the recycling for you. Just WhatsApp us and we'll arrange to have them picked up on your next delivery :)

Best Way to store Meals?

Upon receiving your meals, we recommend you to keep in refrigerator under 4 degrees
