Food Review : Ju Dian

I was at Smith Street last week for a food tasting session and now I am sharing with you another eating place located within the Chinatown area CBD district that offers a wide selection of mouth delicious mainland dishes...


The food haunt for my food tasting, JU DIAN


Upon entering the eatery place, the various pictures and posters on the wall which showcased various pop cultures from USA caught my attention. It was probably a subtle hint from the owner, Mr William Sun to attract tourists as well as the locals.



JU DIAN also offers wines and beers too as it closes everyday at 2am in the morning... Night people will have another supper and drink hideout to chat and chill all night long.


Most of the Sichuan food are popular home-style dishes, and they bear unique characteristics of being simple and fresh. I personally have a soft spot for the street-dish snack, Fragrant Skewers.


Some popular yet affordable skewers can be found in JU DIAN, such as Lamb Kebabs, Chicken Wings and my all time favorite, Taiwanese Sausages which cost SGD1 for each skewer.


Sichuan cuisine poses a great influence in China. When people think of Sichuan food - the first thing that comes to mind: hot flavor and distinctive seasoning. YES, Sichuan food pays a lot of attention to its flavor, seasoning and taste.


Broccoli wth Mixed Vegetables, a perfect dish for health-conscious diners. It tasted good and I simply can't get enough of it.


Hot and Spicy Fried Chicken Dices


Sweet and Sour 'Song Shu' Fish, this is the signature dish in JU DIAN, the gravy perks up my appetite and the fish is fresh and tasted fabulous, The bonus thing about this dish is that it is BONELESS, a great dish for young children and elders...


Fried Beef Rice


Fried Seafood Noodles was pretty delicious with a good balance of seasoning and flavoring, but slight oily to my taste buds.

I was skeptical at first as the original mainland Chinese food is very spicy and salty but to my delight the food which was served had been done to cater to local tastes. Overall, the food taste pretty good to worth a return visit and I will recommend this eatery place to my friends and colleagues.


We ended our food tasting @ JU DIAN with our group photo with William Sun...


Drop by JU DIAN and discover the best locals and western delights...

Preview screening of Planes

Image
 Thanks Claressa for asking me along to join her for the preview screening of Planes at GV VivoCity.   --- Posters of Planes ---         I was thinking to myself during the show, has PIXAR run out of ideas to make a movie? This movie has all the hallmarks of a standard PIXAR movie, such as Cars/Wall-E/Toy Story, with the looks and graphics being the same.     The movie, Planes is a carbon copy of 'Cars' with both the films logo being similar. Oh well, seems like a rip off to me!       The film focuses on Dusty Crophopper (voiced by Dane Cook), an ambitious crop-dusting plane that predictably spends his days flying over tall grass spraying fertilizer. His dream is to become a racing plane, soaring high and racing around the world.   Though he is built not for flying this capacity but his biggest drawback is that he is afraid of height, as he gets used to flying at low heights.   Skipper Riley (voiced by Stacy Keach) i

Korea's No. 1 beauty brand, KUNDAL shower/hair products are now available in Singapore, and I am honored to try out their full series of shampoo, treatment, body wash and hair serum which includes a special gift from them - Bath Bombs! KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder. The scent still lingering in the bathroom for hours and it smells pleasant as well as not being over-powering. I love how my hair feels smooth after using each of the products.
