Origin Superior Coolmax® Latex Pillow

 A special delivery to our doorstep!  I ordered a pillow for my hubby!  He has been suffering from neck strain and he changed pillows much more frequently than me.  The recommendation by "Best In Singapore - The Best 8 Pillows in Singapore" came in rather timely.  I ordered this "Origin Pillow" (which came first in the recommended list) for my hubby as his current pillow has been serving him for quite long already.  Time for a new pillow! 

 

Whoohoo!  The pillow is making its way to our bedroom!

As hubby is more particular in the choice of pillow than me, I let him try this pillow for two weeks before penning down this review.  He was very satisfied with the pillow as it provided good cushioning and support.   

Initially, we thought that the pillow would be too soft for comfort but it does provide good support for the head for a good night sleep.  I did a little test on the pillow to show you how the pillow can quickly bounce back to the original shape.  The Latex material of the pillow will mould accordingly to the shape of your head. This will help to ensure the sleeper will get the perfect level of sleep support.

The pillow comes along with a removable Tencel fabric pillow cover.  Tencel fabric is known for its natural comfort, environmentally responsible production process and being softer as compared to cotton. It is hypoallergenic, lightweight, and extremely ideal for hot weather climates.  Unzip the pillow cover, you will find the pillow with small holes all over in the material, for air circulation purposes to keep you cool, definitely great for Singapore's hot and humid weather.

Features of the Latex Pillow:

👍 Pillow Dimensions – 65cm x 40cm x 13cm

👍 Material: Natural Latex + Coolmax® Cooling Gel

👍 Removable Tencel Fabric Pillow Cover

👍 7-Day Free Return (self-return to Origin’s warehouse)

👍 2 Years Warranty

👍 A product of Germany

I think this is a good pillow to invest in although it is more expensive than most normal types of pillows.  Currently, it is priced at $129 (Original price: $159) and you may order it through their website here.

Hope you will have a comfortable and restful sleep every night with Origin Superior Coolmax® Latex Pillow.

Shepherd's Pie Delivery

Another lazy day where food delivery came to our rescue!  This time round, we decided to try out food delivery from "Shepherd's Pie Delivery" after reading the recommendation from "Best In Singapore’s 5 Best Pie Delivery in Singapore".  I ordered two of their new items - Mac "n" Cheese and also lasagna instead of their normal shepherd pies.  The two items were delivered in aluminum foil boxes and were still warm when they arrived.

When opened, I was excited to see the thick layer of creamy cheese on top of the Mac "n" Cheese!

I love anything with cheese, and lots of cheese!  Here, they are using pure cheese instead of further processed cheese.  I ordered their Mac "n" Cheese Black Pepper Beef Shepherd's Pie (Medium, 400g) .  If you take beef, I will recommend this as the minced beef, soaked in their special black pepper gravy was rather flavourful.  The amount was sufficient for 2 pax.

Macaroni and minced beef aside, it consists of these other ingredients:   Green Peas, Celery, Carrot, Onion, Olive Oil Pomace, Fresh Rosemary, Red Wine, Dried Bay Leaves, Crushed Black Pepper, Sliced Mushrooms, Beef Stock, Vegetable Stock, Cooking Cream, Shredded Mozzarella Cheese, Parmesan Cheese and nacho sauce.

The other item that I ordered is their Sienna's Traditional Lasagna (Triplo Cheese) for 1 pax.  To be frank, I was disappointed with the serving size.  The portion was too small even for me.  

However, it was nicely layered (hand-rolled) with the tomato paste and minced beef in between the layers.  These two items fed two hungry bellies.

Island-wide delivery is available and there will be free delivery for order above $70.  Although they promise 1 hour delivery time, my order was delivered half an hour late (that's why we ended up so hungry and wiped out all the two items without any effort) and they also missed out a bottle of 1.5L of Ayataka green tea in my delivery.  I had feedback and hope they will improve in this aspect.
