Team Dining: The Ultimate Guide to Group Dining at Jem

TAI ER (#B1-04) is a great pick for team dinners if you’re after bold, Sichuan-style flavours. Their signature suan cai yu (酸菜鱼) comes to the table bubbling hot, with generous portions that make it easy for everyone to try. Scoop out a bowl, enjoy the tangy, spicy broth, and let the conversation flow. It’s a simple, memorable way to unwind together after work, especially if your team’s up for a bit of heat.

If your team prefers a more familiar option, Dian Xiao Er (#03-08) is always a satisfying pick. The restaurant’s signature Herbal Roast Duck is a must-try, featuring premium Cherry Valley ducks marinated for hours in a blend of Chinese herbs and spices, then roasted to a golden, crispy finish. Pair it with stir-fried vegetables, seafood dishes, and hearty claypot favourites for a meal that feels warm and comforting. It’s a great fit for year-end appreciation dinners, offering a relaxed atmosphere that still feels considered for corporate gatherings.

Casa Vostra (#01-03) invites you to gather around the table and celebrate the season with comforting Italian fare: house-made pizzas, hand-rolled pastas, and house-cured artisanal salumi. Set in a cosy, rustic space, Casa Vostra is the perfect setting for Christmas or New Year’s team dinners. Savour freshly made dishes inspired by regional recipes, and cap off the evening with a glass of Italian wine as you wrap up the year.

Maybe your team are sushi fanatics, or perhaps you just want a venue that offers a broad variety to please all tastes. Ichiban Boshi (#B1-01) fits the brief perfectly. This contemporary Japanese restaurant prides itself on sourcing top-quality ingredients directly from Japan and beyond, so freshness is a given. 

Expect bright platters of sashimi and maki rolls for the sushi lovers, hearty bento sets for those who like a bit of everything, and comforting bowls of udon or ramen for when the group wants something warm. It’s a balanced, easy choice that works just as well for a casual team lunch as it does for a relaxed dinner.

If you’d like to extend the evening, stay on for a round of drinks with the team - share a warm carafe of sake or keep it simple with an ice-cold Asahi beer as you wind down after a long year.

If your team wants a dinner spot that feels hearty, comforting, and easy to share, Hakka Yu (#03-11/12) is a solid pick. Their homestyle Hakka classics are made for group dining, especially the signature salt-baked chicken, which lands right in the sweet spot between “special enough for a team dinner” and “warm and familiar”. For groups who prefer a bit more privacy, the restaurant also offers 5 private rooms that comfortably seat 8–10 guests each, with no minimum spend required.

Order family-style and let everyone mix and match. Pair the chicken with claypot rice for something warm and filling, add a plate of Hakka stuffed tofu, and round it out with a veg dish or a simple soup to balance the table. It’s the kind of meal that keeps conversation flowing, because there’s always one more dish to try (and someone will definitely ask for seconds).

For something a bit more lively, Seorae JIB (#B1-10) brings the best of Korean BBQ right to the table. Sizzling cuts of pork belly, beef bulgogi, and their signature hay-smoked meats keep the energy up and the meal feeling like a mini celebration. It’s ideal for team celebrations to unwind and enjoy good food together.

With hot and cold sides like soups, pasta, fries, and greens, there’s plenty of variety for different preferences.
