Empress Jade Fine Dining

ABBEY: This is one of the restaurant at Jewel Box. It caters Chinese cuisine. At 33sgd, we got a sample plate of appetizer, soup, main entreé and dessert. We had a three-piece appetizer that includes steamed abalone siew mai, crispy beam curd skin roll, and deep fried taro with diced duck meat. 

Double-boiled pork soup is the soup for the day. For main entree I had wok-fried pork ribs with sweet sauce along with seafood mee sua. Chilled mango sago with pomelo is what I got dessert. I was full and and satisfied with the dining experience. The food is great as well as the ambiance.

WILL: After our very magnificent ride of Cable Car from Harbourfront we arrived at Mt. Faber's The Jewel Box for our Executive Lunch at Empress Jade Fine Dining.

      We know there is dress code for this restaurant kaya tignan nyo ang aming get-up.. hehe.. 

      At the top of a hill, indeed, this is a nice place to dine and unwind. 

      Steamed abalone siew mai dumpling, crispy bean curd skin rolls, and deep fried fluffy taro with diced duck meat is superdb. every bite gives delight and keeps wanting for more. But this appetizer makes us full and I am thinking if I can eat the rest of the food on the list.. hehe.

      Daily special boiled soup came in, and I think I can finish that not less than 10 mins but I savor its taste on my every sip of this hottie and must eat soup! Delicious!

      I ordered for pan-fried cod fish, I do not have any other words to describe this other than tasty. Its natural fish flavor and the the sauce blends well in my mouth. Nom-nom-nom.. definitely the star of this lunch set.

      I thought we will dig in to the dessert, but wok-fried mee sua was on our plate! OMG, there is space in my tummy.. hehe.. I think I only ate half of it, and this is Chat's favorite.. She ate  the other half. But do not get me wrong! This is the best seafood noodles I have tried here in Singapore.

      True, I am not into sweets or desserts, but when I saw their chilled mango sago with pomelo, i gave it a try and that try is worthy! 

      This set do not came along with drinks so I ordered of course a tea! 

      We love the experience, we will never forget this. Our longest lunch ever. We spend almost 2 and half hours munching and talking gleefully not only us three but with Marineth, the tourist! 

Singapore Cable Car

ABBEY: I used to see this air-cars when my office was still at Harbourfront. I knew that someday i'll be able to ride one of them. It happened today, Nov 1 :) 

We got a back and forth ticket from Harbourfront 2 to Mount Faber plus a lunch at Jewel Box for a price of 33sgd. The ride is good. Ride staffs will greet you and accompany you on the car ensuring safety and precaution. Below you can see the highways of Harbourfront and the lush green trees. The ride took 10 minutes. Once alighted we went to Empress Jade.

WILL: It was planned to have executive lunch at Empress Jade Restaurant by December, but naurong because we have a visitor.. my ever beautiful friend,  Neth. Its our first time to ride this cable car, why? for me, its a bit pricey for a housewife like me! Kuripot talaga. So once I saw the Mt. Faber's fine dining restaurants promotions. We grabbed the chance. 

      For only $28++ you can dine and ride. ;) Hop on to see the magnificent, green and clean skyline of Singapore. Wonderful experience. 

      Ooops! I want to say Thank you to Ms. Desiree Tay Him Yi, she is so accommodating and answered all my questions through email promptly. 

      All the BEST, Singapore Cable Car!
