The menu at Jumeirah Restaurants’ established Noodle House brand is undergoing a revamp with the assistance of Singaporean celebrity chef Sam Leong.

As director of kitchens for Singapore’s famed Tung Lok Restaurants, Leong is the creative force behind big-name Asian restaurants such as Jade, My Humble House and Paddy Fields Thai Restaurant.

Commenting on his involvement with Noodle House, Leong explained: “Jumeirah invited me over to guest chef at one of their restaurants a few years ago, which I very much enjoyed.

“Then they recently called and said they were looking to refresh the Noodle House menu with some real Asian dishes, so I have come over to Dubai to look at all the branches, the quality of the food, and bring in a few new Asian ideas and recipes.”

Leong said he was putting his own slant on a few of the brand’s classic signature dishes, including its famed Wasabi Prawns.

“I’m also bringing a chilli crab dish, and also wok-fried me gong; then we’ll let the guests tell us what they think of them, and go from there,” he said.

“There are a lot of regular customers to this brand as well, so we really want to get their feedback and their assistance in bringing Noodle House up to a whole new level.”
