J's is a restaurant providing good, quality food and service where everyone comes together!
"The rebranding of el toro restaurant to "J's" is a testimony to how we can achieve our dreams, how our passions can turn from wishful thinking to reality and how the human spirit can triumph over adversity.
From the simple desire to create a 'space' where Joy Mahbubani could let her teenage son and his friends "chill out" on an evening in a safe environment, coupled with a deep affection for Latin American food garnered from her extensive travels in South America, she had found a perfect solution when she purchased el toro restobar, formally in Winsland House, in 2011.
Having made many changes to the original el toro including an addition of an excellent executive chef, Darrence Wee, with impressive experience from some much celebrated restaurants of international renown resulting in a new fresher, higher quality menu.
The final obstacle to the transformation of the restaurant was to say goodbye to the past el toro and let a new, rejuvenated restaurant bloom to herald the new beginnings reflected in "J's" restaurant!
The significance of the letter "J" represents the culmination of the many years Joy has dreamed of having her own restaurant providing good, quality food and service. Her dream was that everyone, even if they had different dietary requirements could sit together for food. Not only that though, "J's" signifies how the desire to create a space for her son, friends and the community has turned from a humble wish to a reality with the second floor of "J's"- The Upper Room being available for such use. But maybe more than this, "J's" is Joy's reminder to herself (and perhaps an example to us) of how precious and worthwhile life can be after she overcame the terrible adversity of lying in a hospital bed in critical condition with her life, as well as her body, in shatters to fulfilling one of her ambitions through sheer determination and will power.
We sincerely hope you enjoy the food, service and ambiance at J's. We greatly welcome and appreciate your patronage and assure you of our sincere desire to make your visit as pleasurable as we can."
