Tokyo Banana-inspired dessert by Chef Derek Cheong made with roasted banana ice cream, peanut butter ganache, peanut sponge and a drizzle of coffee caramel. It really does taste like Tokyo Banana!

Plump Hokkaido scallop seared only on one side, accompanied with ragout made with ramson, fava bean, asparagus and kailan.
The creamy and earthy flavours from the greens goes well with the plump and pan-seared scallop.

Silky smooth steamed chawanmushi topped with crab, ikura, yuzu ponzu and wasabi oil. Its simply flavourful with umami overloaded in this dish from the flavours of crab meat to ikura and yuzu ponzu sauce.
\\ Part of Twelve Flavours x Makan@JEN $88 Dinner Course Menu (ร la carte $10)
Thereโs a limited-time collaborative menu by Masterchef Singapore Season 2 winner, Chef Derek Cheong showcasing his stellar signatures from Twelve Flavours at Makan@JEN till 11 September 2022.
Starting off our dinner course we have the (complimentary) soft and fluffy kombu brioche with smoked miso butter. The salty taste of miso was prominent in the butter and I like how it goes with the warm and fluffy bun.
Chef Derek, who also runs his private dining concept Twelve Flavours, is putting together a stellar selection of signature and exclusive dishes in this menu through quality and unassuming ingredients. To go alongside the food, there is an option to pair the dishes with natural and classic wines from France, Portugal, and Australia.
For Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, diners can get to enjoy the 6-course wine pairing set dinner ($208++) starting off with a snack of kueh pie tee and grilled meatball before the first course of Chawanmushi which contains crab, topped with ikura and finished with some yuzu ponzu and wasabi to give it differing layers of flavours. Diving into the second course is the Hokkaido Scallop served on a blend of ramson, kalian and asparagus with textures from the fave beans.
The third course of Black Cod was beautifully executed and to pair with this delicate piece of fish is a beurre blanc cooked with razor clams and an additional top-up of caviar. The subsequent Pork Jowl is fork tender, served with slow-cooked cabbage ragu before a palate cleanser and finally the dessert of Roasted Banana. This final course features a homemade eggless roasted banana ice cream with thoughtful accoutrements of chocolate, peanut and coffee.

When organising for a party at home, both the Go Local, Go Atas and Cheesy Indulgence celebration packages come with a spread of food that will surely make your planning much easier. Suitable for 4-6 pax, the packages are priced affordably from $80-$100 and with the quality and amount of food you are getting, you will definitely get your moneyโs worth for this. Pictured is the Cheesy Indulgence ($100), that requires a one day advance pre-order, that cheese lovers will definitely enjoy, especially the Torched and Grilled Half Shell Scallop with Mozzarella Cheese Sauce and Gratinated Creamy Sambal Boston Lobster with Parmesan Cheese. However, the indulgence doesnโt stop there as you will have a large size Black Truffle Bocconcini Cheese Pizza, a box of Curly Fries with Scallion Cheddar Cheese Sauce, Butter Sweet Corn Kernel and to balance the palate from the cheesiness, a box of refreshing Romaine Lettuce with Citrus Vinaigrette. After the savouries, end the meal with the restaurantโs seasonal Assorted Durian Desserts ($28) that will delight durian fans with the choux puffs, tiramisu, pancake with choco and durian cream cheese with crispy rice.

Hotel Jen's Xmas spread is quite a delight! Highlights for me are the pork knuckle, lobster risotto in parmesan cheese wheel, salmon sashimi, abalone. Drool inducing :) - $44 per pax for dinner during early bird promotion, with $25 add on for free flow wine and beers
This is pretty value if you manage to hit the timings with eatigo 50% off! The Garlic & Ginger Chicken Hor Fun came with multiple large chunks of tender chicken and loved the abundance of ingredients, but definitely lacking the wok hei char though it was still a pretty decent heart bowl of horfun. The Malay Chicken Rendang was very flavourful though we would have preferred it with beef, and the Stir Fried Vegetables were so so and Yellow Rice was not as flavourful as I expected. The true value comes with the appetizer and dessert buffet โจโจ Appetizer bar comes with a DIY rojak station (unlimited youtiao yummm), breads (really good to dip with the peanut sauce!!!) and cheese with a huge variety of oils, good variety of salad with nuts and bacon bits, gado gado with peanut sauce and some sides (achar etc). Dessert bar was definitely way more extensive with a good variety of pretty decent cakes (chocolate brownie (yum!!!, carrot cake (loved the citrusy oomph), pistachio (meh), strawberry mousse (meh)), cherry pie (this was more meh than it looked), coffee eclairs (yaaas) and a huge ice cream bar (which Iโll be back to try!!!). Drinks include ice lemon tea and infused water, as coffee and tea. They close the bars exactly at 1430 so grab your food quick if youโre going with eatigo 50% at 1400 ๐๐
Every Thursday in July, Makan@Jen at Hotel Jen Orchard Gateway will be having an all-you-can-eat counter of fresh durian and durian desserts in addition to their already extensive seafood themed buffet spread. Some of the cultivars are hard-to-find including Golden Phoenix and Berkeley durians.
Despite being outdoors, if the weather is nice & cool like it was when I was there, it makes for a great experience with friends or family to bond over durians & a good meal. It's very thoughtful of Makan@Jen to provide gloves for those who don't wish to get their hands dirty as well - I definitely appreciated that.
You have 3 types of durians to choose from: Golden Phoenix, Little Swallow, Berkeley. Just get in line at the booth, & pick your durians & quantity. It will be served to you on a plate; being a buffet, it's free-flow but please don't waste the good stuff!
Thanks Hotel Jen orchardgateway & Casey for the hospitality & invite! ๐
