Tingkat Dinner

[chuaeil]

Hi,

just want to ask all the mummy whom order tingkat here.

- Is tingkat more cheap then you cook yourself at home?
cos for me I find is a bit ex to do home cooking cos i buy most of my ingredients at wet market and is not cheap man it cost me about 50-70 per week.

- Why you chose to order tingkat?

My maid is going back end of May and i will be taking care my 2 children myself, one is gg to 3yrs old and one is 15 mth only.

Do you advice tingkat for such a young age children?

Thank you very much!!!

Cheers
EIleen

It actually depends on what you cook. At times, a dinner for the whole family can cost as low as $6 to as high as $50. But on the average, if you are talking about last time, home cooked meals are cheaper because things weren’t as costly as now. But for now, it is almost the same although sometimes tingkat could be cheaper. Again, depending on what you cook lah.

I compare with my friend where she buy from supermarket is cheaper than wet market so actually wet market is not cheap.

MY soup cost will be high cos for me my children n hubby love to drink soup so my soup got a lot of good stuff.

I am just worry that tingkat is no good for small children.

Hi Mommies, I am using Tingkat deliveries from Chu Wei San Tong for a month now. My two kids, 4 and 6, like the food. Personally, I find the cooking quite healthy. Not oily at all and quite tasty. They go easy on salt as well, and no thirsty feeling after meals. Menu also looks good. Delivery is also quite prompt. I strongly recommend

i think your kids are too young to have tingkat.

maybe you could order tingkat for your hubby and yourself and cook some simple dishes for your kids.

i also dont wish my kids to have food poisoning lijke what happened at pat's schoolhouse (news report in papers today).

SINGAPORE: The Health Ministry and National Environment Agency (NEA) are investigating a food poisoning incident involving a licensed caterer, Mum's Kitchen Catering Pte Ltd, which supplies food to Pat's Schoolhouse.

The statement added that the same caterer had been fined for lapses in December last year for a food poisoning incident involving 35 people at a company function.

[LOLMum]

it doesnt really matter who the caterer is, the point is if you have young kids at home, it is better to cook their food yourself even if you are a lousy cook.


i am a very bad cook, there are times i have to throw the food away (very frustrating and unbelievable to those who can cook) and cook up another batch but at least i know what i am serving.

Please take note of the food poisoning incident which hit Patschoolhouse by Mum's Kitchen Catering.

I ordered before their dinner. Unbelievable plain rice increase from 50 cents to 70 cents per packet and yet reduce the portion of rice by at least 25%. Guess maybe the boss try to maximize profit thus neglect the hygience. With these food poisoning case, I'm more determine not to put my family on risk by trying again their food..... :nunchuk:
