There's still a little more than a month to go before the extended circuit breaker ends on June 1.

If you've been sick of eating the same food over and over again, or are hoping to switch up your meals with something that's a little more special or unique, here are some unexpected food items that you can get delivered to your doorstep.

These items range from affordable to luxurious, catering to different taste buds and cravings to tide you through this CB period.

Enjoy a meal of mookata with your family from Kin Arai Thai Kitchen. Not only does the set comes with meat, vegetables and the usual mookata ingredients, the whole mookata grill pan is also sent to your doorstep.

Now you can order smelly tofu and enjoy it without getting stared at by passers-by, though you may still get an earful if your family hates the smell. 

Orders must be made in advance before the delivery timeslots as seen on Mini Star (HK) Fermented Beancurd's Facebook post.
