Visited on 10 Nov 2015 (Tues - Public Holiday). 

Makan@Jen is a vibrant all-day dining restaurant that offers a blend of local specialities and international classics. They have both a la carte and buffet-style options with a variety of cooking stations.

This was my 2nd visit to Makan@Jen, and I still get the same feeling - "Wow"... Cos this restaurant is really big, with full-height glass windows, and a view of the city. It's really a very delightful experience to dine here!

Note: For people who drive, please park at Level 8 to access the hotel lift lobby. Then take the lift to level 10 to Makan@Jen! :)

XO Carrot Cake


Green Vegetable with Mushroom




Eggs Station









My Choice of Egg: Scramble

Their scramble egg was not bad, it would taste better if they can add a pinch of salt..







Chicken Satay
The meat of the satay was a tad tough.. and because it wasn't grilled over an oped fire, it didn't have the slighty charred taste. 



Beautiful Condiments for Satay


Roti Prata


Ayam Masak Merah



Seabass in Saffron Sauce
I like the creamy saffron sauce very much, complemented the tender seabass so much!



Black Pepper Seabass

Really delighted to see they have 2 types of cooking method for the seabass when I was there that day. And both were equally great!

Overall Impression: Most of the food were average with some really good. Service here was excellent for the first two hours with the plates cleared promptly. But the clearing rate starts dropping off after that. But that is to be expected so it was not out of the ordinary. Nonetheless, the staff were always polite and courteous regardless of the situation. We had some issues with our table and seats but they were promptly settled by the staff and manager courtly. 

Overall Makan @Jen is worth a revisit. The food is quite good and the ambience is relaxing. The staff here are all young people in casual uniform so you will not feel stress dining here - The perfect place for a casual meal with good friends and family. Oh and not forgetting the price is reasonable too!
