Editor's Note

Singapore is well-known for being a food haven where one can easily stumble upon a tasty meal on almost any part of the island. The term “live to eat” has become a common mantra for many, who will travel the distance just to satisfy their penchant for tantalising delights.

At JUMBO, we understand the inexplicable value of savouring good food. For most people, a good dining experience creates an unadulterated sense of joy and satisfaction. This is why our constant quest to understand food cultures in the various markets we go into is vital to ensure that we continue to cater to the palates and preferences of our customers. It is also the driving factor behind our relentless efforts to reinvent our menu and provide new and exciting dishes for our customers to enjoy and indulge in.

JPOT, our hotpot business arm was one of JUMBO’s initiatives designed to cater to the rising trend of a new dining culture in Singapore. Read more about the JPOT experience in our Cover Story, and perhaps, it might whet your appetite for a hotpot meal this weekend!

In the past few months we have also clinched a number of prestigious awards, namely, the Enterprise Award under the Singapore Business Awards (SBA), as well as the AsiaOne People’s Choice Award (PCA). Both are affirmations of JUMBO’s popular standing amongst diners, as well as a mark of our continuous effort to innovate and raise productivity. We are thankful indeed, towards our customers for their constant support, and towards all JUMBO staff for their commitment and hard work.

Lastly, we have a handful of “new” items to introduce to everyone – new dishes and new websites! So do have a good read and enjoy this issue of Wok’s Up!
