I’ve tried food in their Singapore outlet, it’s my first time in this one. The place is known to get so busy during prime hours. We were a bit early and were immediately ushered to a table for two. Normally this table is too small when you consider eating dim sums which are served in large steam baskets. However, in this restaurant, to accommodate more customers, which they do get plenty everyday, we have to adjust in the limited space. Staff are very promptly and highly knowledgable of what they serve. Being a non pork eaters, the menu shrinks by large for us. Our order was for a set of chicken xiao long bao, shrimp fried rice which I fell in deep love in their MBS Singapore outlet, sweet and sour chicken, lemongrass lemonade for the husband and orange juice for me. We would have loved to have some red bean buns, but we were told they were sold out on that. The waitress suggested their famous golden custard egg bun which we accepted. The food was generally delectable. Chicken xiao long bao was yummy. Thin sheet of outer skin and delicious chicken filling was satisfying. The prawn fried rice is my favourite from the previous experiences. It was delicious here too but couldn’t hold a candle to their Singapore branch. Sweet and sour chicken had a lovely balancing of both tastes and the chicken was crispy outside and tender inside. Golden custard egg bun was a winner too. Slightly sweet and once you take a bite, the yolk oozes out and it’s delicious. Overall a lovely experience. About the price, it is well known that it is an expensive restaurant. The portions are too small for what’s charged. However, those who dine here all ready know and they seem to care less.
