2 or 3 years back, my colleagues and i experienced a brief phase of wanting to eat healthier and had signed up for a healthy food delivery service. much good that did to us – not only was the portion too small (all of us were still hungry after we’re done with the food), we ended up paying for additional (non-healthy) food heh!… since then we settled back into the routine of heading over to wisma central if we had a craving for makan nasi campur.

now a new food delivery service has been introduced – which is actually serviced by a group of housewives wanting to supplement their income (probably due to the recent fuel hike!!).

came across mangkuktingkat.com through the weekend paper. it is managed by yayasan nur hikmah  which is a charity organisation and offers your basic dishes delivery for RM3.50 a day or you can complete it with rice by adding on another RM1. the delivery charge is RM1.5o a day so that totals to RM6.00 (which is definitely less than what i have to spend for lunch @ suria klcc)

the only thing is – you need to sign up for a month’s delivery – which may be a bit too much to commit to when i haven’t even tried out the service (and what of the days that i have working lunches or just want to head out for fast food?)

come to think of it – probably i should just sign up since the whole month’s delivery costs less than my 3 weeks’ lunch budget

if i do sign up, will definitely provide my feedback on the food and service here
if you are a bit more rajin and like to cook yourself, then u might wanna bring your own mangkuk tingkat. as i am all for online shopping, here’s one possible option -> yatt’s collection

note:

a major plus is that they do not use polystyrene containers or even those microwaveable plastic containers (which i am trying to reduce using) – as the namesake shows – mangkuk tingkat utilises  stacked containers (alternately known as mangkuk sia) and when you sign up for the delivery service – you also pay Rm30 for 2 sets of these – they do not allow these to be shared. another plus for ‘em!
