22 Awesome pasta await at JE&JO!

By: David A.Howard

Looking for a great Italian pasta shop?

Well, head over to JE&JO! A shop that crafts a wide variety of authentic Italian pasta and sauces. It’s a 20 square meter Italian culinary lab!!

颜值与口味爆表的意大利面？那还不首选JE&JO!(JE = Jenny, JO = Jody，一家兄妹餐厅)位于上海市中心区域,，一家当作20平米的意面实验室，制作各类意面和酱汁的店，已经成为了上海美食家的必打卡地！

The same Italian pasta concept struck Jenny and Jody. They didn’t originally aim to achieve a goal together, it was utterly a coincidence that they both came up with the same idea. Thus JE&JO was founded as a platform to use their existing knowledge as a base to explore further exciting unknown culinary concepts.

品牌创始人创立JE&JO初心是为了学习，在已知领域去探索未知领域，并不是为了一个目标。这是一种想法与机遇的“巧合”，当然也少不了背后的努力！

jejo2

JE&JO is for all Italian culinary lovers. Jenny and Jody are eager to share a state of mind and a kind of culture about one thing – food!

他们期待着去分享的是一种状态，文化，归根究底就是吃，不仅仅是针对意大利美食爱好者，更是想让任何人都可以通过自己的一种方式去拓展自己的认知，而“JE&JO”对于他们来说是其中一种。

Coming into direct contact with ingredients and making food together as partners helped to settle down their minds and strengthen their sensory experiences which inspired them to utilize innovative parings and combinations of foods.

对他们来说，幸福大概就是和喜欢的人在一起做很多很多饭，能够脚踏实地地去接触到食材，和朋友们一起做一些会让人静下心的食物，发现更多的元素，玩弄搭配组合，带来更多无（美）形（味）力（体）量（验）。

Pasta

意面

Red Campanelle, Fussili, Conchiglie, every type of pasta has a special texture and shape. Every type of pasta could paired with a special sauce.

Red Campanelle 红铃铛意面

jejo5

Fussili螺旋面

jejo6

Conchiglie贝壳意面

粉红铃铛意面, 螺旋面和贝壳意面，每一款也都可随意搭配每款特色酱汁，每一款无论是口感和外观都各有特点。

Campanelle is listed as #1 in both visuals and taste. In Italian, Campanelle means little bells.

口感颜值NO.1的Campanelle（在意大利语里Campanelle是指小铃铛的意思）

This bell-shaped pasta is made of special ingredients which give the dough a pink color. Fresh eggs are mixed with wheat flour then freshly squeezed beet juice is added to change the dough from a golden colour to pink. The Campanelle pasta is then slowly dried under low heat to preserve the best flavours of all the ingredients.

红铃铛意面由于其独特的配方，面团呈现粉色颗粒状。新鲜的鸡蛋和小麦糅合，加入自磨的甜菜汁后治愈的肉粉色取代了金黄，慢速低温干燥的搅拌，完整保留了原料最好的风味。

Sauce

jejo9

There are 4 main sauces at JE&JO – bolognese, mushroom sauce, seafood sauce, and pesto saucce. The Bolognese is the most popular. They are also constantly innovating and coming up with new sauces!

目前主要特色酱有肉酱，蘑菇酱，青酱和海鲜酱，陆续也会推出一些不同口味的酱汁。番茄肉酱意面是最百搭的口味。

青酱

Pesto Sauce

(pinenuts, basil&garlic)

New Recommendation

Avocado pesto sauce

牛油果青酱

The texture is creamy, rich, and fragrant It is different from the traditional pesto sauce. You just have to try it!

口感绵密，丰厚，醇香，与传统的罗勒青酱不一样的风味，不过值得一试!

Traditional Lasagna Bolognese

传统肉酱千层面

Traditional Lasagna Bolognese: It has many layers of different ingredients. Although it’s a pasta dish, it almost looks like a cake! It’s made of layers of stretchy cheese, chewy lasagna pasta, and tomato meat sauce to provide a multi-faceted flavour explosion!

叠叠增高，虽然说是面，但看起来又像蛋糕，既可以有芝士拉丝版的感受，又有结实的面皮和丰富的肉酱所叠加的口感。

By: David A.Howard

News update from the Shanghai Police Department -on March 24th, local residents reported that the Shanghai Police arrested a 33-year-old man named Liu for tampering with his Covid Nucleic acid test report.

During the investigation, Mr. Liu admitted that he had used cell phone software to change the date on his Nucleic acid test report so that he could travel freely, and he also helped two other people to change their report dates on March 23rd and 24th respectively. Now Mr. Liu has been administratively detained by Shanghai Police Department for tampering with the documents.

The Shanghai Police Department claims that they will strictly follow the laws to punish any crimes that disturb the work of Covid-19 prevention and calls for the locals to fight side by side to maintain good social order.

On March 24th, the Xiamen City Market Supervision Department exposed a case of imported cold-chain food that went against Covid-19 prevention regulations. The enterprise was fined about ¥18million for forging the nucleic acid report and the person in charge is suspended from operating the business for 5 years.

It’s probably safe to say – it’s not a good idea to tamper with your Covid test results!

21 Element Fresh shuts down outlets, goes bankrupt due to COVID-19

By: David A.Howard

Element Fresh, a western-style heath-concept restaurant chain headquartered in Shanghai, announced on Dec 14th that it is mired in financial trouble and is in the process of filing for bankruptcy and liquidation in accordance with Chinese laws.

The restaurant chain said in the announcement that its operation and chains have been seriously affected by Covid-19. It has been suffering from financial and managerial deficit.

Element Fresh will start closing its chains and central kitchens from now, as well as its administrative offices and supporting department. It will sign leave-without-pay contracts with its employees, and the company encourages them to start looking for employment.

On Dianping.com, a restaurant review website app, there are still 10 Element Fresh restaurants in operation in Shanghai. Its chain in Ruihong Tiandi commercial complex has issued a notice saying it will close on December 20, and it will start refunding its customers who have purchased gift cards and coupons.

Its chains in Shanghai’s Zhangjiang, Jinqiao areas, Shanghai World Financial Center,Nanjing Road W, and Xintiandi will continue operation until the Spring Festival in 2022.

During this year’s Double 11 shopping festival, Element Fresh introduced a pre-paid card on their official Weibo.com account that gives purchasers an extra 500 yuan (US$ 78.4) for every 1,000 yuan card.

Consumers who have bought the card now can return the card or use them in Element Fresh’s chains that are still in operation.

The restaurant chain was founded in 2001 by American Scott Minoie, who opened a fruit juice bar in 2000 in the Shanghai Center. He then changed the bar’s name to Element Fresh and added western light meals, according to Shanghai Observer, a local news portal.

Two years later, Frank Rasche, a German who worked for Coca-Cola and was experienced in marketing, joined the chain. The two started to imbue a health-concept into the chain.

Over the years it has won numerous awards from local expat magazines, even a Seven Star Award, one of the most authoritative food safety recognition programs in China.

In November, a report from Bloomberg News said the chain was looking for potential buyers as its holders were evaluating offers. The potential purchase price could be in the range of several millions of US dollars.

Five associated companies of Element Fresh are also filing for bankruptcy since its announcement on Tuesday.
