  Over the past decade, Singaporeans have been eating out more and more often. A 2018 Nielsen survey polled 202 respondents to find that 24% of them have indicated that they eat out daily, while over 55% of them eat out on a weekly basis. Of the 3 meals per day, dinner was the meal that was usually consumed out of home. It’s hardly surprising, given our busy lifestyles and the fast-paced society here in Singapore. Eating out is the most convenient solution to resolving our daily needs, and the wide variety of affordable food in Singapore means that we are spoilt for choice. At the same time, it can be hard to gauge how much food we should order when eating out. We just know that we’re  starving  by the time we finally grab a seat at a crowded hawker centre. Plus, while there may be different portion sizes available, it can still be hard to gauge how hungry we feel to how much we plan to eat. And sometimes, what if the food isn’t to your taste, or you’ve ordered more than ...

  Healthy living is the ongoing trend for the 21 st  century and most people are seriously switching up their lifestyles for healthier living. People are now working out more, eating the right foods, cutting down on sugar and fats. Even government bodies and agencies are also actively promoting healthy living by raising sugar tax among many other initiatives. But when it comes to food, we all know how easy it is for us to slip right back to our unhealthy habits of consuming sugar and oils. While they may not be as unhealthy as before, the accumulation of such diets is still going to cause us inconveniences in the future. Obesity and many other health conditions are still relevant in our society. However, it is also apparent that there are many healthy food operators appearing in the market. Food trends are also slowly inclining towards healthier choices. It is no doubt that people are starting to eat healthily. However, there is one option that has always been in the market fo...

  Are you looking to eat healthier for the new year, but you’re not sure where to start? Instead of throwing yourself into eating super clean meals off the bat, it helps to start small and expand your diet and your palate. What most people tend to overlook when they start a new diet is whether they’ll enjoy the experience. If we jump into a new diet when we’ve never tried out health foods like quinoa or cauliflower rice, we might get turned off dieting entirely if we try to force ourselves to enjoy the experience. Moreover, when you work on accustoming yourself to different dishes, you can enjoy new culinary delights at every meal. Most of us love sticking to the food that we’re used to because it brings us comfort and we enjoy eating it. However, variety is the spice of life, and constantly eating the same few foods can lead to fatigue and boredom. With all the new food fads in Singapore nowadays, it’s the best time to try out all the different types of food. You might find your n...

  As the year wraps up in the wake of Covid-19, companies are still encouraging their employees to work from home. Though the situation might change come December, it’s hard to deny the benefits of working from home. For those who use public transport to travel to and from the office, working from home saves a ton on transport costs and having to eat out all the time. Plus, the ability to catch up on that precious extra hour of sleep!   However, for the usual members of the family who usually cook and prepare meals, it’s a headache in more ways than one. Having everyone at home means having to settle everyone’s lunch  and  dinner now. Everyone’s going to be in the mood for something different every day, and your household might even have a picky eater or two. The most convenient method is requesting food delivery services to suit everyone’s palate.    Even so, the delivery cost is not cheap if you must cater to multiple meals over the week. You might not ge...

  Tingkat in Singapore  has been gaining popularity ever since people started focusing more on their career, resulting in less time to prepare and cook their meals.  Tingkat  is often touted as healthy meals with no MSG and there is a slight shift in preference for healthier foods in recent years. But there are also many reasons why people are now preferring Tingkat to home-cooked or even takeaways. Cheap and Affordable Probably one of the cheapest Tingkat in Singapore and that’s  Select Catering . It only sets you back at around $160 for 2 pax on a 20 days package. An average  Tingkat service  provider would set you close to $200 for the same package.

These foods are usually available on at a premium offered by other  Tingkat caterers . Convenience Do you ...

  There are many joys to cooking but at the same time the pain in washing, the amount of time buying groceries and preparing ingredients, thinking of what to cook, and the lack of diversity put people off cooking. The obvious alternative to cooking would be eating outside home but is it going to be sustainable? Surely not, but how else are we going to survive in Singapore? Fret not, we have  Tingkat delivery services  available in Singapore to help you out! Costs The costs of having a  Tingkat dinner  or  Tingkat lunch delivery  can be somewhat similar to the typical cost of a takeaway meal. What’s more is that the price per pax drops when you order for more people. In a typical household of 4 pax, the average cost per pax for a  Tingkat meal  is around $5.50, which is relatively cheap for most food choices. If your budget is really tight, you can consider  Le Xin Catering  as they are one of the  best Tingkat in Singapore . Va...

For those who do not know what a  Tingkat  or a  Tingkat catering  is, it’s basically delivered meals packed in metal tins or metal “lunchboxes” that reminds you of post-war Singapore. Nevertheless, Tingkat meals can often remind us of home-cooked food if you ever miss home-cooked food. Times have changed and people are starting to cook less and eating out more because of convenience. However, for convenience sake, we may not be taking care of our health the proper way. Outside foods usually contain more oil, salt and other forms of seasoning to enhance their flavour. Therefore,  Tingkat delivery   is a healthier choice and most convenient. Tingkat delivery services  cover your lunch and/or dinner, depending on your subscription. These subscriptions usually come in 10 days or 20 days, depending on your budget. Caterers such as Le Xin do offer a  Tingkat trial   period of 5 or 10 days to see whether you will like their food and servic...

There are so many reasons to cook at home and yet, it is alarming to note that urban dwellers are not having much of it. Studies have revealed that having home-cooked meals as a family regularly leads to healthier and happier beings, especially the kids. A close-knitted family through daily get together meals would also most likely to have grown up children who are less likely to abuse alcohol, drugs and smoking in their teenage years. Below are some of the reasons why you should have home-cooked food at the comfort of your home; 1)       This is pretty straightforward; Healthier! Outside foods are mainly sold for commercial reasons and you can expect MSG and all sorts of unhealthy condiments going into your food to make it tasty! 2)       Communal meals; humans are by and large social animals and social interactions help keep us sane and having a sense of belonging. These have long term benefits such as good mental health, lea...
