What's for Lunch? A Healthy Lunch Box!
Our annual lunch box competition saw a whole slew of healthy food recipes prepared by staff! Organised by the Health Promoting Hospital Committee, this year's competition welcomed staff from varied departments such as Physiotherapy, Communications, Emergency Preparedness, Radiology and more!
What went down!
Participants made their way to Oasis, Basement 2, Tower B as early as 11.30am to prepare for the competition. It was heartwarming to see everyone unboxing their lunch boxes and sharing about the food preparation and ingredients with each other.
Dr Quek Lit Sin (CEO), Mr Ng Kian Swan (COO), Dr Soh Poh Choong (Principal Resident Physician, Emergency Medicine), Chef Richard Woo (Head, Food Service), and Ms Grace Michael (Principal Dietitian, Dietetics & Nutrition) started the food tasting as soon as the competition officially kicked off!
The participants also shared with everyone on what made their lunch box a healthier option.
While waiting for the results to be tabulated, the organisers prepared a quiz for everyone to participate! Those who gave the correct answers brought home healthy food items such as wholemeal pasta.

Let's hear from our colleagues!
"It's my first time joining the healthy lunch box competition and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole process! It's not often that we get the chance to be mini-Masterchefs. It's also nice to meet people from different departments. I've gotten a lot of inspiration from the other participants on healthy and creative ideas to spice up my lunch box."

"A great way to learn new recipes! While I am happy to emerge as one of the winners, what I truly enjoyed was the bonding and the live crowd!"
