The confinement period after giving birth to a newborn is a time when mums bond with their babies. It is also a time for mums to heal and regain their strength after the rigours of giving birth. With more mums wanting to take charge of their confinement period, they are choosing to order confinement caterers over hiring a confinement nanny. Here are some of those confinement caterers who deliver to your home.

Value and Review of the meal

Chinese meal includes:

  • 1 Broccoli With Braised Shiitake Mushroom
  • 1 Stewed Pork With Galangal And Lemongrass
  • 1 Dispel Wind Chicken Soup With Lemongrass
  • 1 Tri Colour Rice
  • 1 Cup Of Red Date Tea

Review
The portions are generous and all dishes are well balanced in taste. The sauce from the Broccoli with Shitake Mushroom dish is not too salty while the broccoli is not too soft, giving a crunchy and chewy texture. The subtle taste of lemongrass together with the ginger complements the pork, which is tender and fresh. The soup is very nourishing with an initial taste of sweetness and a savoury finish. Served with Tri-colour rice that gives an extra bite to each dish.

Mediterranean Signature includes:

  • 1 Tian Wei Signature Coq Au Vin
  • 1 Barley Millet Rice
  • 1 Papaya White Fungus Dessert
  • 1 Cup of Red Date Tea

Review
The portions are generous and plated tastefully, with the harmony of flavours with each bite. The Chicken from the coq au vin is a little tough, however, the sauce is savoury with slight tangy notes and the vegetables are crunchy and perfect. Served alongside the Barley Millet Rice that has a sweet tinge due to the barley. The dessert to finish the meal is the Papaya White Fungus Dessert, which is sweet with a slight plum taste, the white fungus is a little chewy in texture.
