Warm & Soothing Interior
Characterised by a warm and soothing palette of earthy tones, woody browns and olive, Joyden Canton Kitchenâs new outlet at Great World City is an understated, elegant, and exudes a cosy and welcoming vibe with plush banquette seating, ambient cove lighting and mid-century modern wall lights.Â
Inspired by elements in nature, the restaurantâs interior boasts a feature wall clad in intricate botanical motifs, decorative floral pieces and tinted mirrors that add a touch of sophistication and accentuate the inviting space.
Signature Dishes
Undoubtedly the highlight on the menu, Joydenâs Signature âMoonlightâ Rice Vermicelli with Egg White and Scallop ($22) is highly-recommended. A cross between the Chinese classic dish of with sauteed egg whites, and a local âzicharâ noodle dish, Joyden Cantonâs rendition comprises a bed of silky rice vermicelli that is imbibed with âwok-heiâ, and covered with luscious and fluffy scrambled egg whites studded with a generous helping of crab meat and scallop â a single pasteurised egg yolk provides the crowning glory.
The crowd-pleasing Fish Maw and Tiger Prawns with Glass Noodles in Homemade XO Sauce ($22) is another claypot dish that showcases the chefsâ culinary prowess. Spice-lovers will lap up the al dente strands of glass noodles, fish maw and succulent tiger prawns that are thoroughly infused with the robust proprietary XO sauce made with dried scallops.
Some of Joyden Canton Kitchenâs other perennial favourites include Joydenâs Chargrilled Mandarin Peel Pork Ribs ($20), âSha-Keongâ Salt Poached Farm Chicken ($20) and âHa-Gamâ Olive Fried Rice with Prawn and Minced Pork ($17) among others.
Seasonal Special - Summer Eel Fiesta
This summer, freshwater live eels harvested flown in directly from Mainland China take centrestage from 10 June to 14Â August. Savour this fine-fleshed and sweet delicacy in four tantalising creations.
Grilled Eel with Honey Glaze ($39.80) highlights the soft, unctuous flesh of the eel â it is first glazed with a homemade honey and maltose mixture, then grilled to a glistening golden-brown with a crispy skin. Braised Eel with BBQ Sauce in Claypot ($36.80) is a smouldering sight as the claypot is bubbling with chunks of fatty eel, shiitake mushrooms and a medley of fresh greens such as onions and bell peppers in a smoky housemade sauce â the juicy thick cuts of eel is best savoured with a bowl of steaming white rice.
Two other recommended dishes include Wok-Tossed Eel with Chives Flower ($38.80) cloaked in a tantalising and piquant sauce with a special blend of fermented soybean paste, as well as Steamed Eel with Fragrant Soybean Crisps ($40.80) â a hefty parcel of perfectly-steamed eel in superior soy sauce topped with a layer of fragrant fried soybean crisps that adds a hint of nuttiness and sweetness to the dish.
