Most meal-prep services in Melbourne cook the same chicken-and-broccoli in a different sauce every week. CHDS cooks real Chinese food — braises, stir-fries, steamed dishes — and balances every one of them so you can eat it every day. Cooked fresh in our Hawthorn East kitchen, delivered chilled, never frozen.
The name says it: 吃荤搭素 (chī hūn dā sù) means "eat meat, paired with vegetables". Every Meal Set is a portion of protein, a generous serve of vegetables and rice in one box — nothing deep-fried, no heavy sugar, and the oil dialled back to what home cooking needs.
Each dish on the menu lists its calories, protein, carbs and fat per portion, so you can plan a week without guessing. High-protein dishes are marked; lighter dishes are marked too.
A new menu is published every week. Pick a delivery day — Monday, Wednesday or Friday — and choose your dishes for that day, or let a meal package do the choosing for you. Order before the cut-off (the evening before delivery) and your food arrives chilled the next day.
Meals keep for days in the fridge. Heat for three minutes and eat. There is nothing to assemble.
A Meal Set is one person's complete dinner in one box: protein, vegetables and rice. It is the easiest way to eat well on a work night.
A Main Dish is the dish on its own, in a small or large serve, for people who cook their own rice or want to put two or three dishes on the table and share. Families usually mix both.
