Hi all!

We’re having an outing for all members to get together and enjoy special, unique or just delicious Japanese cuisine. Members can also make new friends and catch up with one another.

This month, we’re having ramen - soupy noodles with toppings such as sliced pork (chashu), bamboo shoots and spring onions. Ichibantei is a chain of ramen restaurants in Japan that has expanded into Singapore for quite some time already, bringing with them authentic ramen that is wildly popular with Japanese expats.

Date: Saturday, 12 July 2008
Time: 6.15pm to late
Venue: Ichibantei Robertson Quay (meeting at Somerset MRT control station)
Budget: $20 (most main courses)

If you’re interested, please email valentine@tpjcg.org with your name and contact number by Wednesday, 9 July 2008. Places are limited, and priority will be given to all JCG members who can make it on time. So sign up now!

See you there!

Say what? Ichigo Daifuku?

Those cute round balls of mochi stuff filled with strawberry?

Oh yes, it is.

Salutations fellow schoolmates!

You know it! For the month of July, we will be shining our spotlight on one of Japan’s most favourite traditional desserts, Ichigo Daifuku! “Ichigo” translates as strawberry and “Daifuku” is a Japanese sweet cake consisting of a small round glutinous rice cake stuffed with sweet filling, most commonly sweetened red bean paste.

Usually eaten during spring time, Ichigo Daifuku is popular due to its tenderness and sweetness. It is definitely worth something to learn how to make a Japanese sweet dessert!

What are you waiting for? Join our Ichigo Daifuku making session! Don’t worry if you are a new starter, because we will be guiding you along the way to making this wonderful dessert.

Date: Saturday, 26 July 2008
Time: 10am to 12pm; 1pm to 3pm
Venue: IT 5-6-15
