FOODIE VS THE WORLD 

In November, Hotel Jen Singapore marked a new milestone as the first international hotel brand to use autonomous relay robots in Asia. Both Hotel Jen at Orchardgateway and Hotel Jen Tanglin welcomed JENO and JENA respectively. JENO is a lovely shade of turquoise, while JENA sports a very dainty pink, both the brand colours of Hotel Jen. JENO seems to be wearing a jacket and tie, while JENA is decked out in a pretty pink scarf. We got to personally experience the relay robot s

It has undoubtedly always been a dream of mine to stay in a Hello Kitty themed hotel, or at least a room. And my dream had finally come true this year! After 26 years of dreaming of this day, it had finally come. And I was super excited! Mind you, we had just finished a 3D2N staycation in Marina Bay Sands and were spoilt silly by the most luxurious of experiences. Having to come to Hotel Jen, Puteri Harbour after that would have been unfair... except that Hotel Jen's standard

Here's a little known fact (to some) about me: I *used* to love Hello Kitty very much. I say used to because the love has probably dwindled to a like as I've grown out of it. But some part of me will always have a fondness towards the mouthless cat. So obviously when I was visiting JB, I had to drop by Sanrio Hello Kitty Town but I was also pleasantly surprised to find a Hello Kitty themed cafe at the premises. We stopped by for a quick snack and had a couple of lattes. It's

Hotel Jen is really the place to be if you're visiting JB from Singapore or KL. The weekend we decided to drive down to JB, Hotel Jen was bustling with families and travellers from both major cities. It's no surprise that this hotel is one of the more popular ones - just look at that stunning view of Puteri Harbour. We were privileged enough to be invited for a tasting session of their menu - just a few dishes to sample. Our menu for the evening was specially curated by the c

This year, Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore ushers in the Christmas season with a variety of festive offerings. For those of you who would love to avoid the Christmas crowd, Hotel Jen’s Fully-Loaded take away meal (S$198) that features a whole turkey complete with trimmings, is back again this year, ready to feed a party of ten to twelve hungry people. Hotel Jen has also added an Asian touch to their popular takeaway turkey dinner and prepared it ‘Percik style’ (S$198)! Rumpoles B

It seems like there have been many seafood buffets recently in local hotels. It must be the season! We have seen the Hokkaido Harvest at Mandarin Orchard and Holiday Inn Atrium’s seafood fest. Now, Hotel Jen@Orchard Gateway is also offering diners a feast with 4 different types of prawns. From 3rd October to 1st December 2016, Makan@Jen is inviting patrons to their Prawn Extravaganza, where you will get to savour prawns from around the world, and of course, cooked in differen

Funny story about our review at Hotel Jen... We went to the wrong Hotel Jen at first. We autopiloted towards Hotel Jen in Tanglin because we had been there before and assumed we'd be dining there again. But when we finally made our way to the right Hotel Jen at OrchardGateway, it got our appetites raring to go. Much like their Tanglin location, Hotel Jen at OrchardGateway is also a quirky, modern hotel with a very young and innovative facade. Makan@Jen is the most appropriate

What was previously Traders Hotel in Tanglin is now refurbished and reopened as Hotel Jen Tanglin - a hip and edgy addition to the hotel scene in Singapore. Walking into the hotel, leaving the humid Singapore weather behind, it is easy to fall in love with the place. Quirky touches give the otherwise contemporary hotel a very welcoming vibe. Especially if you're a hipster. Oops, yes, I just said that. This will be made clear when you walk past the wall with vintage bikes moun
