Confinement Meal Delivery – Trial
$78.00
Try a Day of Real Care—No Commitment
Congratulations, Mama.
Whether you’re counting down the days until delivery or preparing your postpartum recovery, choosing your confinement meals is an important decision. Our Confinement Trial Meal lets you experience Shan Food before making that commitment, giving you confidence in the quality, flavours and nourishment you’ll receive during one of the most important recovery periods of your life.
At only $78 (worth $138), you’ll enjoy a carefully curated confinement meal prepared using the same premium ingredients, recipes and expertise found throughout our full confinement meal programmes.
More importantly, this isn’t just about trying a meal. It’s about discovering how proper postnatal nutrition can support your recovery, restore your strength and help you begin motherhood feeling nourished and cared for.
Every recipe is created for postnatal mothers. We combine modern nutritional science with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Together, they support healing, nourishment and maternal wellbeing after childbirth.
Our confinement meals are suitable for mothers recovering after both natural delivery and Caesarean birth, providing balanced postnatal nutrition throughout the traditional confinement period.

Why This Trial Meal Was Carefully Chosen
This trial meal is designed to showcase the heart of traditional confinement nourishment. For example, pig trotter vinegar is commonly enjoyed during confinement for its warming qualities. Sesame chicken with black fungus and mushrooms offers comforting flavours and protein-rich nourishment.
In addition, papaya fish milk is a familiar confinement favourite, especially among breastfeeding mothers. Steamed fish, vegetables, rice and warm teas complete the meal with balance, comfort and variety.
As a result, you get to experience a full, satisfying and thoughtfully curated confinement meal before choosing a longer plan.

Our celebrity chef with over 30 years of culinary experience, TCM Professor, certified clinical nutritionists and experienced lactation consultants develop every recipe with postnatal recovery in mind.
As a result, each meal supports your body while maintaining exceptional taste.
