Fancy a delicious & nutritious vegetarian light meal packed full of flavours? Tauhu Goreng could be your answer!

A beloved Singapore street food made with crispy golden fried tofu, generously coated in a rich, creamy satay sauce—a savoury-sweet peanut sauce crafted from roasted peanuts, aromatic spices, garlic, chilli and a touch of sweetness & tang. Finished with crunchy peanuts & bean sprouts, crispy fried shallots, fresh coriander, sliced red chillies and a half hard-boiled egg, every bite delivers the perfect balance of nutty, savoury and fresh flavours.

100% vegetarian and packed with authentic Singaporean flavour, it’s a satisfying dish that’s loved by vegetarians and meat lovers alike.

Fancy trying this at my next pop-up at Snuffy Jack's Ale House ? Let me know if you do!

Our first at the Community Market in the Ponds yesterday and we had a wonderful time meeting so many lovely people.
Thank you lovely Jules Fishponds Community Markets for having us. You are a gem to work with!
And thank you to all our fellow traders for your very warm welcome as newbies.
And for those we came by our stall and tried a slice of Singapore… a big Thank You!
A shoutout to my fellow Singaporeans in Bristol who dropped by to say hello and supported us and ~ you made our day extra special!
We look forward to the next one in September and meeting new friends!

Henry was one of the first people we met at our local pub, Snuffy Jack's Ale House, since we moved to Bristol a few years ago. A brilliant & talented musician, still playing occasionally at the age of 84, a fine gentleman! Both Gabriel and I always enjoy a chat with Henry about his music and life.

We are sharing a crowd funding project launched to help raise money for a surgery to give him a better quality of life. Any donation towards this will be greatly appreciated by Henry! ❤️

What’s in a name? For Jade’s Straits Kitchen, it’s a whole history of flavour. ✨

From the diverse & rich food culture of Singapore, straight to Bristol.

Jade’s Straits Kitchen is my personal journey, a family legacy, and a geographic anchor.

The "Straits" in our name represents the Strait of Melaka, the historic spice route where Chinese, Malay, and Indian cultures met to create Singapore's vibrant multi-racial cuisine - the ultimate culinary melting pot.

Jade’s Straits Kitchen isn't just about famous street food; it is a love letter to my childhood growing up in Singapore. It is inspired by the hearty food my mother used to make when I was little and the aromatic dishes on my paternal grandmother’s Peranakan kitchen heritage, the comfort of everyday family meals, and the bold and lively flavours that shaped my life.

I’m here to share those authentic flavours and nostalgic memories with you, cooked with love and reimagined with a modern touch. Welcome to my childhood kitchen!

Pop-up! 🙌🙌Jade’s Straits Kitchen will be doing a market introduction launch with on the 4th July, Saturday from 10.30am...
