20 Days on Nutrition Kitchen: Review of My Experience

After 20 days on Nutrition Kitchen, my first round has officially come to an end. I went into this trial looking for something practical, it was not so much about not perfect meals or miracle results, but a service that could save time, reduce my mental load, and make eating well feel easier.

This follow-up post continues from my introduction, focusing on what daily life with the service actually felt like: the good, the slightly frustrating, and whether I would do it again.

[Nutrition Kitchen Singapore Review: Why I Decided to Try a 20-Day Meal Plan]

As a recap, I chose the Low Carb plan, two meals a day (there's an option for 3 meals a day, and even including snacks). I choose to have the meals delivered on weekday mornings (you can choose the morning or evening delivery slots). The 20 day (no subscription plan) cost me S$598.

Morning Deliveries: Convenient, But Inconsistent

As I opted for morning deliveries, the meals would be typically be between 6:30am and 8:00am. If you’re already an early riser, this works well. If not, it feels a little unpredictable. On average, the delivery was pretty consistent, arriving by 6:30am.

Deliveries are handled by a third-party courier. There’s no direct contact with the rider or live tracking, only automated SMS updates when the food leaves the kitchen and when it has been delivered.

On the first day, I overslept. My meals were left outside my door for about two hours without a knock or follow-up call beyond the automated SMS. Thankfully, everything is packed chilled and the food was still good, but it’s something to be aware of if you’re choosing morning delivery.

When Something Goes Wrong With Delivery

There was one instance where my order was marked as delivered, but nothing had arrived. It turned out to be a courier app issue, and the food eventually arrived around 7:30am.

When I received the notification and noticed that the food had not yet been delivered, I contacted Nutrition Kitchen via WhatsApp. While their official support usually starts at 8am, someone responded around 7am that day, which was much appreciated.

That said, this does highlight a limitation: if issues happen before support hours, there’s no immediate hotline or direct courier contact. Once support responds, however, they are generally helpful and efficient.

Note: Their WhatsApp contact is not always visible on the mobile site and may be easier to find on the desktop version.

Marketing Communication: A Bit Too Aggressive

After signing up, I found their marketing communications quite persistent with constant reminders when the cycle is ending and to renew. You may need to manually unsubscribe from newsletters and WhatsApp promotions if you prefer fewer notifications.

Another confusing point was receiving promotional emails from both the Singapore and Hong Kong versions of Nutrition Kitchen. The messaging was similar, but pricing and platforms differ, which made it feel slightly cluttered and unclear.

This didn’t affect the food experience itself, but it did add unnecessary noise.

Subscription vs Manual Renewal

I chose not to go with a subscription model because I wanted flexibility. So, I manually renewed for another 20-day block. This approach allowed me to reassess after each cycle (whether to continue or take a break) without feeling locked in. If flexibility matters to you, this is worth considering.

Results After 20 Days on Low Carb Meals

Over 20 weekdays of eating two low-carb meals a day, I lost about 1.5kg. There was no extreme dieting involved: no strict calorie tracking or major changes to my usual routine. So for me, this feels like a steady and sustainable pace, rather than a drastic drop that’s difficult to maintain.

Note Meals are only delivered on weekdays, so weekends are self-managed.

Meal Variety: No Repeats in 20 Days

One thing that pleasantly surprised me was the variety of the meals. There was not a single meal that was repeated across the entire 20-day period.

Compared to:

ordering delivery (where we often rotate the same few dishes), or
batch cooking (where meals repeat until ingredients run out),

It also made me realise how repetitive my own food habits usually are.

Feedback & Surveys

About once a week, Nutrition Kitchen sends a feedback survey asking about meal preferences and satisfaction.

I appreciate this as this suggests they are actively collecting user input rather than simply delivering meals without iteration or improvement.

Meal Overview (20 Days)

All meals were in Small portions, priced at S$14.95 per meal. They arrived chilled, sealed, and were easy to reheat.

Portion & Packaging

Small portions were sufficient for low-carb meals (lunch/dinner)
Packaging was compact, leak-proof, and microwave-friendly
Easy to store and stack in the fridge

Taste Profile Summary

Rather than reviewing every meal individually, here’s a grouped breakdown of what I experienced over 20 days:

Category	Examples	Key Notes	Rating
🌶️ Asian-Inspired	Tom Yum Fish, Beef Bulgogi, Rendang, Sichuan Chicken, curries	Bold and comforting flavours Occasionally slightly salty Consistent overall quality	⭐ 4 / 5
🍳 Egg-Based / Breakfast	Poached eggs with beef, egg bakes, Florentine-style eggs	Well-cooked and reheats well Light but satisfying Can feel less filling over time	⭐ 4 / 5

Would I Continue?

Yes, and I’ve already renewed for another 20 days.

While there are clear areas for improvement (especially delivery consistency and communication), the overall value lies in it's convivence, ease of ordering and acceptable flavours.
