Must Try Asia

Singapore – StarHub TV is adding even more High Definition (HD) content with the launch of three new HD channels, Disney Channel HD (StarHub TV Ch 312), Nickelodeon Asia HD (StarHub TV Ch 314) and Asian Food Channel HD (StarHub TV Ch 435). The channels will join HGTV (StarHub TV Channel 437) and Fashion One (StarHub TV Channel 442).

The HD channels come just in time for children and their families to catch Star Wars Rebels, a new animated action series continuing the epic tradition of the legendary Star Wars saga, on Disney Channel HD. New titles on Nickelodeon Asia HD include the buddy comedy, Max & Shred, where an unlikely friendship forms when an easy-going snowboarder moves in with a super smart whiz-kid and his family; and an original animation series, Breadwinners, which is about two hilarious booty-shaking ducks operating a bread delivery service out of their awesome jet-fueled van. Finally, food lovers can tune in to Asian Food Channel HD and catch Must Try: Asia where Food Hero winner Sarah Benjamin and the ever-innovative Chef Malcolm Goh travel across Asia’s most popular capitals and tuck into the city’s signature dishes.
