    One of the fining-dining restaurants housed within Raffles Hotel Singapore, the wood-fire-driven Butcher’s Block presents an avant garde interpretation of traditional cooking methods close to nature. From March to May this year, Butcher’s Block brings the ‘Spring IMUA experience’ to Singapore foodies, as a tribute to nature’s awakening.

    Butcher’s Block is helmed by Chef de Cuisine Jordan Keao, born and raised in Hawaii, where cooking, fishing, hunting, and farming are a part of everyday life. The restaurant exhibits the highest quality of produce, meats, and seafood sourced from around the world and translated through fire.

    Complement the dining experience at Butcher’s Block with over 288 premium wines, including a meticulous selection of natural wines, from The Library.

    Spring is a very special season for Hawai’i — the warmer and longer days invite communities to gather and celebrate the season’s plentiful harvest and fresh garden delights.

    The Spring IMUA experience at Butcher’s Block captures the optimism and togetherness that define the essence of spring and Hawai’i’s eternal connection to nature.

    Drawing inspiration from Hawai’i’s natural splendour and guided by the spirit of IMUA — ‘move forward with strength and spirit’ — this menu experience mirrors the season’s blooming transformations. Chef Jordan has a commitment to sustainable, whole-animal butchery and zero-waste principles.

    A quartet of Chef’s snacks promises an expressive medley of island-inspired flavours.

    Begin with the popular duo of Big Eye Ahi Tuna Poké, a refined take on the well-loved Hawai’ian poké classic, and Wagyu Beef Pipikaula, which spotlights a deeply umami Blackmore rump and chuck roll cured in aged garlic shoyu and dry-aged for 25 days.

    Newly introduced, the Grilled Asparagus Rosti showcases the definitive Spring produce lacto-fermented for over 36 hours before being grilled and assembled with parsnip puree and Agria potato rosti.

    Another new snack takes the form of Taramasalata, which is inspired by Chef Jordan’s childhood days spent with his uncle, who was a fisherman. The collar of the Ahi tuna is first smoked before being made into a pate with the same consistency as taramasalata, and piped into a pain souffle pillow made with laksa leaf powder.

    The essence of Hawai’i’s spring flavours comes to life with Lomi Lomi, a term derived from the Hawai’ian term to massage. This celebrates a three-century-old side dish where fish was salted and preserved. Chef Jordan’s inventive rendition highlights smoked Japanese hamachi cured in paprika, paired with tomato sorbet and agua chile for a zesty tang. Finally, crispy Jerusalem artichoke tops the dish for a textural crunch.

    For dinner, guests may also delight in Western Plains Kalua Pork Ravioli, an innovative interpretation of the traditional Hawai’ian dish of Kalua Pork presented as a ravioli containing Western Plains pork shoulder that had been wrapped in banana leaf and slow roasted overnight. Cooked over the wood-fire, the dumplings are enlivened with taro leaf, sweet potato puree and fermented red cabbage, seamlessly marrying the flavours to perfection.

    Epicurean journey through the island’s heart

    Continue the bountiful feast of springtime with an array of main courses, including the signature Huli-Huli Dry-Aged Duck, a dish that embodies the island’s vibrant and unique identity.

    Malaysian farmed duck is first dry-aged whole for a week, then butchered into different parts: the breast undergoes further dry-ageing, then meticulously ‘huli’ (turned) over ambient heat above the fire and glazed with a luscious caramelised shoyu reduction. The duck leg is slow-cooked into a confit, and presented with a jus made from roasted duck bones. This reimagined classic pays homage to the smoky, flamekissed flavours of traditional Hawai’ian barbecue infused with the bounty of the season.

    Grilled Murray Cod takes centre stage, featuring the fillet of this sustainable, fatty fish paired with a turmeric-accented mousseline made with the trimming and collar from the same fish. Accompanied with beautifully charred kale alongside a luxurious bottarga cream and rich Koshihikari rice risotto, the dish delivers a symphony of umami complexities.

    Blackmore Farms Trio is a true reflection of Chef Jordan’s culinary prowess in wood-fired techniques and whole-animal butchery.

    Marvel at the artful presentation of prized Blackmore Farm wagyu showcased in three distinctly new ways — a grilled chef’s select cut, a luxurious beef bone marrow custard, and a beef fat financier — all created from the same half cow that the restaurant regularly brings in. English pea purée, shaved fennel and pea tendrils complete the dish with added freshness and texture.

    Sonu Nigam resumed his performance after the situation was settled.

    Several videos of the concert have now gone viral.

    In one of the videos, a head band could be seen thrown towards Sonu Nigam.

  • Indian Railways: Can you transfer a confirmed rail ticket to a relative? Know what are the rules of the railways


    – Advertisement –

    You had made a reservation in a train but due to some reason now if a relative of yours has to travel and not you, then the confirmed ticket in your name can be transferred to your relative.

    That means he can travel on your ticket. There are provisions for this in Indian Railways, but there are some special rules and conditions for this. If you follow these, then of course your relative can travel on your seat.

    – Advertisement –

    know the rules

    Railway rules say that if you have a confirmed train ticket but are unable to travel, you can transfer it to your children or your spouse. Here one thing to understand is that a confirmed reservation ticket can be transferred only to another member of your family, i.e. father, mother, brother, sister, son, daughter, husband and wife, instead of you. You just have to meet the railway officials in advance to make this process hassle-free.

    To transfer a ticket, you have to submit a transfer request at least 24 hours before the train departure time. If there are less than 24 hours left for the departure time and you are submitting a transfer request, it will not be accepted.

    This is the process of transfer

    First of all, for change of name on confirmed reservation ticket, you should go to the reservation counter of your nearest railway station with a printout of the electronic reservation slip and the photo identity proof mentioned in the electronic reservation slip. At this time, you should also have a valid ID proof of the relative who is travelling in your place. Provide proof of relationship with that relative at the counter. Submit a written application for ticket transfer, railway staff will help you in this.

    There is provision for such passengers as well

    Apart from relatives, ticket transfer can be done in some other categories as well. In this, if the passenger is a government employee and is on duty and there is appropriate authority, then the ticket can be transferred. If the passenger is a student of a recognized educational institution and the head of the institution requests in writing 48 hours before the scheduled departure of the train that the reservation made in the name of any student can be transferred to another student of the same institution.

  • From siloed to seamless: How digital banking transformations unite every corner of the bank

    Banks face a critical challenge: their front, middle, and back offices often operate in a siloed fashion, undermining their ability to implement a banking transformation that allows them to serve customers effectively. Meanwhile, customer demand for personalized banking has never been higher. Research from the Harris Poll found that 74% of banking customers across generations want more personal banking experiences. Banking leaders cite creating a personalized, seamless branch experience as their second highest priority, after regulatory compliance and risk management.

    Banks must implement workflow solutions that unify and modernize their systems to deliver on these mission-critical customer expectations.

    The impact of fragmented banking systems

    Maintaining disparate systems isn’t just a technology headache for the IT team. Siloed bank infrastructure creates operational difficulties that lead to opportunity costs. Front office employees don’t always have ready access to the customer data they need to provide personalized service. The middle office struggles to ensure compliance and properly manage risk when information is fragmented across teams. Back office staff may have trouble accurately recording and documenting transactions without a unified view of the data.

    According to the Capgemini Retail World Banking Report 2024, bank employees spend 70% of their time on operational activities, leaving only 30% for customer interactions. Only 9% of client onboarding team time is allocated to customer interaction. Legacy systems and fragmented databases exacerbate inefficiencies, hampering customer service. Without sufficient access to data, employees struggle to respond quickly, leading to prolonged transactions and dissatisfied customers.

    Effective approaches to digitalization in banking

    Banks must prioritize digital transformation that connects every area of their organization if they are to compete and thrive in today’s retail banking industry. As the Capgemini report found, 70% of bank CXOs plan on increasing digital transformation investment by up to 10%. The advisory firm notes that banks are enhancing their data management capabilities and modernizing legacy systems first and foremost, migrating core functions to the cloud where necessary to establish an agile, cost-effective foundation for future digitalization in banking.

    This modernization strategy enables banks to eliminate operational silos and allow employees across all offices by secure digital methods to access the same data — what’s known as a single source of truth. This way, banking professionals can make faster, better-informed decisions. Unified insights allow front office staff to provide a higher standard of customer care, for example, by implementing analytics tools to unearth valuable customer insights. Banks can also tap workflow solutions like robotic process automation (RPA), artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to enhance middle-office risk management and back-office processing.

    Mobile-first tools such as secure mobile messaging solutions build on these benefits by allowing teams from the front, middle and back offices to collaborate in real time securely. Through secure mobile access, bank employees can safely access these integrated systems and data from anywhere, whether greeting a customer who has just entered the branch or arriving at a client site for an important presentation.

    Secure mobile access also facilitates further customer data collection that can enable even more refined and impactful personalization, enhancing future opportunities to earn customer satisfaction. A front office employee might accomplish this by inviting customers to share information about their tastes and preferences on a tablet while completing an account setup for them at a local branch, making it possible to provide them with more tailored services later on.

    Banking transformation enables a unified experience

    When banks digitally transform, uniting data and teams alike, they can meet customer expectations for a great experience. For example, a front office employee can receive an alert on their wearable or mobile device when a customer has arrived, allowing them to greet them at the entrance by name and confirm the reason for their visit. Then, the employee can provide them with personalized recommendations on a tablet.

    Middle office teams flag potential compliance issues right away, using secure mobile communication tools to alert their colleagues for timely follow-up. As back-office process automation lifts the burden of manual data management processes, banking professionals can focus on higher-value initiatives. Ultimately, by boosting employee productivity, banking transformation makes it possible to deliver continuous customer experience improvements.

    In uniting their operations through digital transformation, banks can create an environment where employees can be more productive and effective, providing personalized experiences that earn customer satisfaction and secure a competitive advantage.

  • Global trust in digital services declines, finds Thales – CRN

    Global trust in digital services declines, finds Thales – CRN

    Thales announced the findings of its 2025 Digital Trust Index – Consumer Edition, revealing a universal decline in trust for digital services compared to this time last year. Across 13 different sectors, only insurance, banking and Government saw either their trust level remain unchanged or increase very slightly. When asked which sector they trusted with their personal data, not one sector reached above 50% approval. Thales surveyed over 14,000 consumers across 14 countries about their online relationship with brands and services, their privacy expectations, and how brands can earn their trust.

    This decline in trust comes as nearly one in five (19%) have been informed that their personal data has been compromised in the past year. Consequently, 82% have abandoned a brand in the past 12 months due to concerns about how their personal data was being used.

    Global trust index ranking

    Banking emerged as the most trusted sector for the second year in a row. However, the research found a stark demographic shift, peaking at 51% of over 55s, and languishing at just 32% of Gen Z consumers (16-14-year-olds).

    Government organisations are the only sector where trust increased compared to the previous year, with 42% of global citizens ranking them as a top trusted sector with their personal data, compared to 37% last year.

    News media organisations polled the lowest, with only 3% of citizens ranking them as a top trusted sector. Social media, logistics, and automotive sectors only ranked marginally higher, at 4% each.

    Commenting on the findings, Sebastien Cano, Senior Vice President, Cybersecurity Products at Thales said: “Global trust in digital services is decreasing or remaining stagnant at best, even among highly regulated industries. One area that does not remain stagnant is the threat landscape. Consumers are more aware than ever before of online threats, and the consequences of their data falling into the wrong hands. As cyber threats evolve so does consumer scepticism, and brands must continuously adapt their security measures to stay ahead and rebuild confidence.”

    Too much onus on consumers

    More than four in five (86%) of consumers expect some level of data privacy rights from the companies they interact with online. However, amidst growing concerns about data privacy, 63% believe that too much onus is placed on the consumer when it comes to data protection. Over a third (37%) said that they only shared their personal data with an organisation because it was the only way to access a product or service. Only 34% said it was because they trusted organisations to use this data sensibly.

    This frustration is also evident when it comes to customer experience. Whether it’s being kicked out of an online queue, being presented with price fluctuations, or experiencing downtime on a website, one in three consumers (33%) voiced frustration with ecommerce, directly caused by bad bots manipulating the customer purchasing process.

    Despite this growing scepticism, customers have been clear about their expectations. 64% of consumers said that their confidence in a brand or service would significantly increase if it adopted and implemented emerging or advanced technologies such as passwordless authentication, biometrics, multifactor authentication, and responsible use of AI.

    “The Thales Digital Trust Index findings should be alarming to enterprises that conduct business online. The global decrease in digital trust is not only quantifiable, but preventable. Deploying modern Customer Identity Access Management (CIAM), Fraud Reduction Intelligence Platforms (FRIP), GenAI, and data privacy protection solutions properly, with optimising the customer journey as the primary design principle, will lead to better business and consumer outcomes,” said John Tolbert, Director of Cybersecurity Research at KuppingerCole Analysts.
