    I am a big fan of La Mian & Xiao Long Bao from Crystal Jade. Once I feel like eating them, I will always think of Crystal Jade first. I have been to the Jurong Point outlet a few times and always find it crowded with people same as other outlets as well but to me the wait is worth it.

    The few usual dishes that I like are

    1. Xiao Long Bao. Their star. Big and Juicy. The skin is not too thick or thin. The soup inside is sweet. The meat is tender.

    2. They offer a lot of la mian but my fav will be always La Mian with Fried Pork Cutlets. (Wonder I got it right?) The pork slices are fried but not oily, tender and juicy.

    3. Fried rice. Their fried rice are ok with me but I fine them a bit on the oily side at times.

    4. Side dishes like chicken in wine, their vegetatrian goose meat, I like, especially the last one. Although it is not the crispy type but it is full of flavour.

    5. Dishes. I like their huge kailan. It is really good and crunchy. They got a dish crabmeat with egg white then add a raw egg yolk on top. I like it as well.

    6. Dessert. I loved their mango pudding so much that I can have 2 servings at one go. Haa... Nice mango taste with real mango meat inside, mixed with a lot of condense milk. Yum Yum! It is always good to end the meal with one.

    Most of the outlets I went to, find that their service are up to par and swift. Friendly most of the times.

    Find the place always a bit too cramped and they try to squeeze in as many tables in as possible. Not able to hold a private conversation, but good to see what other people are eating though. Haa....

    The place is always like those Hong Kong eateries noisy at time as well.

    Overall, I like the food too much and able to overlook all the small little flaws they have. At time, they do have certain credit card promotions, so always ask before ordering.

    Enjoy!

    This is the fast food place that I will go, as it serves only the freshest sandwich around.

    Below are the steps when ordering your sandwhich:

    1. First you got to choose your bread. They got lots of bread to choose from! I loved Hearty Italian bread! So much so that if they ran out of the bread, I will move off tot he next branch. Of cos there are still others like Italian, Wheat, Parmesan Oregano, Honey Oat.

    2. Next you got to choose, you wanna 6 inch or a foot long sandwich!

    3. Choose which sub you wanna to go for. There are sandwiches which only have 6 gram of fats or the normal tuna, steak, chicken etc. Tons of choices to choose from. My fav will be Turkey Breast, Ham and Subway Melt.

    4. Choose if you wanna to toast ur bread. (Toast it! Melted chesse taste nicer. Hee....)

    5. Choose what veges you wanna. They are very generous with their vege. So much so that in the end, you will not see the meat but only vege in the sandwich. I like! Hee....

    6. Dressing. Again a few dressing to choose from. Even they match certain dressing to certain sandwich. My fav is always Sweet onion sauce for all sandwiches.

    7. Choose if you wanna to upgrade a meal, means to complete your subway sandwich with a drink and either cookies / chips. Go for the cookies. My fav will be white chocolate mac nut cookie!

    8. Lastly, enjoy ur sandwich!

    For service wise most of the sandwich artists (Yes they are called sandwich artist! Nice right!) are very friendly also. They are also fast with their hands as well

    They also got membership card where you can get it from the website FOC! They got promotions and discounts from time to time!

    Recently they had some renovation and change their image to a more modern look. What did not change is the food, of course good food no need to change.

    I always like a few things from them mainly:

    1. Chicken
    2. Colesaw
    3. Macaroni and Cheese
    4. Corn nibblets
    5. Corn muffins (My FAV!)

    Even though there is one incident where a customer found a cockroach inside the colesaw (I think), but I think they will be more caution from then now, so it did not stop me from going. Also with the new look, they looked more brighter and cleaner now as well.

    Should go and try the few things that I mentioned about especially the corn muffins! Simple great! Soft and fluffy inside yet crispy outside.

    The price is average and the sets are worth its price as well. The portions that they give are also huge.

    The service there is prompt as well, eve though it is self service. The queue tends to built up when someone is there standing and thinking what side dish he/she wants. I hate it when it happens!

      Hmm... I got a bad experience once there. I was waiting to watch a midnight show so decided to hang out there before the show starts.

      Once seated, the waiter took the order and at the point they serve the food, he mentioned that they are closing in 10 mins time. So we got to leave in 10 mins time!

      How come they cannot say this out when they brought us to our seats or when taking our order? Felt so cheated!

      So service bad..... so bad that I dun wanna to back again!

        To me this place serves decent pratas but there are other places that serves better pratas.

        The last time I went, I went with my colleagues. I ordered one plain prata and one one egg with onion prata. Both came fresh and hot. However I find the plain one tasted a bit plain. The egg with onion one slightly better. The egg and onion is well distributed within the prata itself.

        Then I also order a banana prata to taste. It is good. Thin and crispy crust with slices of banana on it! A bit on the sweet side though.

        It is open 24 hrs so it is also a good place to go and la kopi if got nothing to do at night.
