1. Covid-19 stay-home guide: Classic chicken rice with free delivery
Hainanese chicken rice works well for home delivery because the meat tastes best at room temperature. The rice is nicer eaten warm, but is not bad when cool. The problem is finding a good eatery that delivers islandwide and does not cost too much.
Wee Nam Kee, one of my favourite chicken rice eateries, ticks all those boxes. And there is no delivery charge - just a $30 minimum order.
The process is simple. Check out the online menu, send your order through WhatsApp and pay through PayNow.
2. Covid-19 stay-home recipe: Versatile chayote makes for refreshing salad
Have you been cooking at home more often?
As most home cooks know, planning what to cook and preparing the food is only part of the challenge. Washing up and mopping an oily floor after dinner can be tedious, especially if you are working from home.
For a healthier vegetable dish that does not require stir-frying, try Chayote Salad.
3. SHARE: YOUR FAMILY'S STORIES
Get your family - from grandparents to extended family members - to share their stories using the Get Curious: My Family's Stories online kit by the National Museum of Singapore.
It covers topics such as food, school, popular culture and festivals, and includes a preparation guide and conversation cards for a fun family bonding session.
Submit your stories by June 1 and stand a chance to be featured in the museum's upcoming exhibition - Home, Truly: Growing Up With Singapore, 1950s To The Present. The exhibition is held in collaboration with The Straits Times as part of ST's 175th anniversary and will open at the museum in the second half of this year.
