Nuodle expands menu, shares Dubai expansion plans

Nuodle, Singapore's first and only halal beef chain of quick-serve restaurants, has added mala beef lamian (mala beef noodles, S$8.85) and classic fried bee tai mak (S$7.50) to its menu.

Source: Nuodle. Mala flavoured beef noodles.

The brand was set up to showcase Chinese cuisine, with a focus on the relatively rare Lanzhou beef noodles. Since the opening of the first Nuodle outlet at Singpost in 2017, Nuodle has served more than 1 million bowls per year of affordable Lanzhou beef noodles in Singapore. 

Nuodle's founder and MD Jerry Liao subsequently added sweet-and-sour dumplings from Xi’an, Hunan vermicelli fish soup, and spicy gizzard dry sauce noodles from Sichuan. A mala dish was added to appeal to those who like spicy food.

The mala flavoured beef noodles feature Nuodle's tender mala beef, made from a secret recipe, as well as Nuodle's homemade beef broth. Other ingredients include Shanghai greens, coriander, and garlic sprouts. According to Nuodle, the beef and broth are stewed for four to five hours before serving.

Nuodle's other new dish, classic fried bee tai mak, fuses Chinese cuisine with Singapore tastes. Nuodle uses a secret recipe for the sauce, which is fried with chewy bee tai mak, chicken thigh meat, cabbage, capsicum, onion, and Shanghai greens.

"The history of noodle-making is an integral part of our brand, and we are proud to continue this tradition in a modern halal setting. The unique aroma and flavour of beef and noodles in our carefully brewed clear broth, made with clean white turnips, brilliant red chili oil, green cilantro, and a blend of traditional Chinese spices, is a taste that everyone should experience,” Liao suggested.

Nuodle also introduced the concept of hand-pulled noodles to complement its beef noodles. Five types of hand-pulled noodles are available at Nuodle flagship outlets at SingPost Centre, Our Tampines Hub, and Compass One. The broth is prepared with halal beef, beef bones, beef liver, and seasonings.

Nuodle further plans to open its first overseas outlet in Dubai this year. The outlet will be directly owned and managed by the Nuodle team from Singapore. Beef used in Dubai outlets will be sourced in-country.

"We believe that our brand represents Singapore, and itis time to share our passion for food and our heritage with the world. We are thrilled to open our first branch in Dubai, and we are confident that our customers will appreciate the authentic taste of our halal beef noodles," Liao said.

Nuodle has 20 outlets in Singapore, including three cloud kitchens that can provide island-wide delivery. More pictures are on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?vanity=singaporerecommends&set=a.640341198102196

Awesome: Samsung announces the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34

Samsung Electronics has unveiled the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34, two smartphones that advance Samsung Galaxy’s commitment to designing awesome mobile experiences. These new additions to the popular Galaxy A series will help users shoot steady and crisp videos, see their content clearly even in bright conditions, and enjoy long-lasting battery life1.

“Offering a cutting-edge experience is increasingly essential to the everyday life for our consumers. The Galaxy A Series is an accessible product for consumers who are looking for near-flagship experience, without breaking the bank,” said Ronnie Ng, Head of Mobile Experience, Samsung Electronics Singapore. 

“As we continue to bring enhancements to the Galaxy A series, such as the introduction of the Nightography feature, we want to ensure that more consumers can access our transformative innovations.”

The Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 deliver quality images that are clear even in low-light conditions, making use of Samsung Galaxy’s Nightography and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. The new smartphones produce clear video, combatting shakiness and blur with improved optical image stabilisation (OIS) and video digital image stabilisation (VDIS). In low light conditions, Night Mode helps users to capture more detail by broadening the camera’s pixel size.

Users can also now remove unwanted shadows and reflections for the first time in the Galaxy A series, thanks to the Enhanced Object Eraser feature.

Both devices feature immersive Super AMOLED displays, measuring 6.4"2 on the Galaxy A54 and 6.6"3 on the Galaxy A34. Both displays have been upgraded for improved outdoor visibility, even under bright sunlight. With enhanced Vision Booster and a 120 Hz refresh rate, the displays will keep up with users as they move between different lighting conditions.

The Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 also provides access to up to four generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates. These features allow users to access the latest software and security to maximise the smartphone experience.

Smartphones today go everywhere users go – whether it is playing music in the shower or heading out into the great outdoors. The Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 are IP67-certified for water and dust resistance to give users that extra bit of peace of mind when out and about.

Enhanced mobile experiences rely on advanced security. With Samsung Knox, data is kept protected with defence-grade mobile security. The Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 give users access to the Security and Privacy Dashboard, which makes it easy to see how apps are tracking data and enables users to take simple steps to stop unwanted data collection. When users want to share important files that contain sensitive or personal information with the ultimate level of privacy and control, there’s Private Share4. This enables users to share files only to designated recipients within time limits and with screenshots disabled.

The Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 are also compatible with the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem to provide seamless connectivity between devices. Plus, with the dual SIM tray, users will be able to use two SIM cards in one device – keeping all your connectivity in one device.

With the expandable memory made possible due to the new SD Card slot function in the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34, users will be able to keep their memories all in the palm of their hands.

Details

Both the Galaxy A54 5G and Galaxy A34 5G will be available in four colour options. Both are available in Awesome Lime, Awesome Graphite, and Awesome Violet, while the A54 5G also comes in Awesome White, and the A34 5G in Awesome Silver.

Both phones will be available in Singapore from April 2023.

Xiaomi has unveiled its latest flagship smartphone lineup – the Xiaomi 13 Series - in Singapore. The Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro aim to offer users in Singapore a brand-new smartphone photography experience through a Xiaomi-Leica partnership.

The flagship models are co-engineered with Leica and offer a triple camera setup with Leica professional optical lenses. Other premium features include the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Xiaomi's own Surge battery management system.

The Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro are both powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform, with enhanced graphics processing through a GPU, with performance and power efficiency improvements of 42% and 49% respectively compared to the previous generation. CPU performance and power efficiency are improved by 37% and 47% respectively.1 This powerful performance guarantees ease and speed when handling tasks like computational photography, real-time AI and gaming, while prolonging the daily battery life.

The devices also offer Wi-Fi 7 support with the Qualcomm FastConnect 7800 Mobile Connectivity System. Xiaomi 13 Pro's featured High Band Simultaneous (HBS) Multi-Link technology allows for multiple and simultaneous 5 GHz and 6 GHz connections, and is capable of realising ultra-high speeds of up to 5.8 Gbps, along with reduced latency and great network capability.² Xiaomi 13, in contrast, features Dual Band Simultaneous (DBS) Multi-Link operation, and is capable of network speeds of up to 3.6 Gbps.²

Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro are equipped with Xiaomi Surge battery management system. Surge rides on Xiaomi’s self-developed Surge charging chip for a longer service life and upgraded experience. Equipped with a 4,500 mAh battery, the Xiaomi 13 will easily last through the day. It also supports 67 W wired turbo charging and 50 W wireless turbo charging. On the other hand, Xiaomi 13 Pro boasts an a 4,820 mAh battery with 120 W HyperCharge, capable of charging to 100% in just 19 minutes.³

With the Xiaomi Imaging Engine, Xiaomi 13 Pro and Xiaomi 13 feature the strongest computational photography capabilities yet. The devices can automatically focus on selected subjects in motion with Xiaomi ProFocus

Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro offer a wide range of camera settings. The master-lens system, a software feature, provides great focal length and depth of field for capturing perfect portraits. Users can also select two distinct photographic styles – Leica Authentic Look and Leica Vibrant Look while maintaining accuracy and offering moderate saturation. Fun features include Leica filters, a Leica watermark, and the Leica classic shutter sound.

The Leica Vario-Summicron 1:19-2.2/14-75 ASPH. camera system on the Xiaomi 13 Pro covers focal lengths from 14 mm to 75 mm, and comprises a 23 mm wide-angle main camera with an ultra-large 1" IMX989 sensor, a 75 mm floating telephoto camera, as well as a 14 mm ultra-wide angle camera. First seen on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, the IMX989 sensor is the largest sensor ever incorporated into a smartphone. With high dynamic range (HDR), superb light-capturing capabilities and a fast response, the large sensor ensures images with clear contrast and fine details. 

By adopting digital single lens reflex (DSLR)-level internal focusing technology, the smartphone's new 75 mm telephoto lens utilises a floating lens design to achieve a focal range from 10 cm to infinity.

Meanwhile, the Xiaomi 13 has an optical zoom range of 0.6x to 3.2x, and also features a 75 mm telephoto lens.

The Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro also excel at shooting video. Both devices allow users to Create in Dolby Vision with vivid colours, sharp contrast ratios and rich detail. Users can capture 4K Ultra night videos, and enjoy HyperOIS video stabilisation.

Both Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro feature an all-new minimalistic design language. Available in Black, White and Flora Green, Xiaomi 13 sports a flat screen design with a 2.5D curved back design. The screen-to-body ratio is 93.3% with 1.61 mm ultra-thin bezels and chin.4 The 6.36" FHD+ AMOLED display ensures content is displayed with top-notch colour accuracy and brightness, yet with lower power consumption.

In addition, both Xiaomi 13 Pro and Xiaomi 13 users will get one out-of-warranty repair without labour cost within the first 12 months after purchase. To further improve the overall after-sales experience, Xiaomi now offers international warranty services in over 40 markets worldwide.
