Traditional Meals
I was lucky to have Allayarhamah Mak Siah. She took care of everything when I was in confinement,
from my meals, hot bath, hot stone massage, body massage, "bengkong", body scrub, taking care of my baby and also the door keeper to keep my husband away for 40 days. It was difficult to make these medicinal food tasty or according to my taste buds. These food are suppose to heal , do not expect lots of salt or heavy creamy coconut in it. Thank God, after 3 sons I am still below 56kg and do not have flabby stomach.
(Tips: Take Majakani after the 40th days if possible not during confinement ). For the first 3 days after delivery, I suggest that mothers eat porridge to avoid constipation, eat less protein. You can start eating meat and fish on the 4th or 5th day . Mummies, please rest well and enjoy this break.Monday

Dear mummies,
Do not compare our food with restaurants, we do not use MSG, preservatives or flavor enhancement. We serve you minced meat to ensure you have good protein supply but at the same time easy on your digestion. Our Ikan Haruan Soup or Eel Soup can be requested if you need them daily (you need to place the order in advance)
Take care of your body, you need to be healthy to take care of your family as you are the core.
Love.
