Ever since Jem’s opening in 2013, the once quiet part of Singapore is now a bustling hot spot filled with many retail stores and delicious eats. When was the last time you checked out Jem with your family? In this post, we bring you on a quick tour around Jem, the ever growing and exciting lifestyle hub!

DANRO Collagen Hotpot Buffet by MOF

DANRO Collagen Hotpot Buffet offers an inexpensive buffet hotpot experience for you and your family for just $17.90++ (adults) and $11.90++ for children during weekday lunch. For dinners, weekends and public holidays, adults can dine in for just $27.90++.

Diners get to enjoy unlimited servings of pork, chicken, beef and prawns (dinner). Free-flow of side dishes, vegetables, sauces, and soft drinks are also available. From 29 March onwards, DANRO will be launching new menus with free flow sushi, sashimi and tempura.

Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert

Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert not only serves desserts, but has mains in their menu too. Now, the menu is refreshed every 6 weeks with either new dishes or promo set meals.

Look forward to promotional items such as HK Curry Beef and Tendon Noodle ($8.30), Braised Pork Belly with Bamboo Shoots in Red Fermented Beancurd Sauce Rice ($7.30) and Mid Wings in Sichuan Spicy Sauce (4pcs for $5.90). During the month of May, they will also be releasing other promotional items such as Fish Maw Bisque with Shredded Abalone Mushroom, and Sea Cucumber paired with Egg Fried Rice for Mother’s Day.

We love their Signature Combination Noodles ($8.90), which came with thick slices of char siew along with dumplings that encase chunks of prawn in each of it. With authenticity at its heart, Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert imports their noodles from Hong Kong.

IndoBox

The food here is served in big portions but at affordable prices. Recently, Halal-certified IndoBox launched a value set meal, offering Bak Mee Ayam Pangsit or Ayam Penyet, along with a choice of beverage (Calamansi or Salty King) just for $10.80 (usual price: $14.60).

The Ayam Penyet is marinated with turmeric and other spices. The chicken is steamed, then fried till crispy.  The Bak Mee Ayam Pangsit is a Halal version of the Bak Chor Mee. Instead of using minced pork, IndoBox uses minced chicken for the Bak Mee Ayam Pangsit. The sauce used was more savoury than sour, and had a subtle taste of braised mushroom in it.

Poppy Pops

Craving for desserts? Satisfy that sweet tooth with Poppy Pops! Hidden on Level 6, the hideout specialises in gelato popsicles. Poppy Pops makes them in-house with interesting flavours such as Chocolate Beer, Honey Lychee Yogurt, Brown Butter Cookie Dough (their signature and our favourite), and Blueberry Thyme.

Prices for a classic popsicle start from $4.80. They also offer a selection of toppings for you to add on to your popsicles ($0.50 each, $2.80 for waffles). Can’t decide? Get a trio of mini popsicles instead of one for just $6.00!

Besides popsicles, Poppy Pops also serve fries, waffles with popsicles and fusion pasta dishes like Mentaiko Pasta ($16). 

Simply Wrapps

As the first MUIS halal-certified salad and wrap cafe chain in Singapore, Simply Wrapps makes healthy eating accessible to everyone. Also recently HPB endorsed, the calorie count for all Chef Creations’ Salad items included in the menu.

With more than 50 toppings and 19 house dressings, you will never get bored of the array of choices available. Dressings are made with healthier ingredients such as extra virgin olive oil and low-fat yoghurt. Wraps are US-imported, made of whole-grain flour and are a hefty 12-inch wide. Besides wraps, salads and burritos, they also serve delicious quesadillas, and snack-size wraps for breakfasts and tea breaks.

Even for those who detest salad and healthy food, Simply Wrapps will convince you that healthy food can be delicious, nutritious and satisfying at the same time.

Shaburi & Kintan Buffet

Offering two restaurants under one roof with an all-you-can-eat dining concept, diners can choose to go for Shaburi (Japanese Shabu-Shabu) or Kintan Buffet (Japanese premium BBQ) at Shaburi & Kintan Buffet. Premium meats are specially selected for the best dining experience. There is also a buffet display counter where diners can dive into over 40 yummy side dishes, vegetables, sauces and soft drinks.

Get your own personal hotpot and choose from 5 delicious broths at Shaburi. Buffet prices start from $19.80 for lunch, and $26.80 for dinner. A la carte meat plate sets are also available from $12.80 during weekday lunch times.

Go for Kintan if you prefer yakiniku. Savour the natural sweetness of the grilled meats just as it is, or pair them with speciality Kintan sauces available at the buffet counter. You can also request for a cheese curry dipping sauce to go with your yakiniku! Buffet prices start from $22.80 for lunch and $28.80 for dinner. A la carte meat plate sets are also available from $12.80 during weekday lunch times.
