With a Taiwan origin, crystal dumplings are not a regular item on most dim sum restaurants' menus. Contrary to what the name suggests, it is not made of crystal (duh!) but rather has a translucent delicate skin wrapping the burst of sweetness. After 3 failed visits to this particular stall at Alexandra Village Food Centre, I was determined this time round and went down just before the lunch rush hour peak.

I have been eating this for the longest time. I started eating it when the stall was located at the old tiong bahru market a really long time ago. I love both the salty and the sweet flavour. The filling of the salty flavour is the usual turnips and the dried shrimps. It is best eaten with their specially made chilli. As for the sweet flavour, i get to choose in between the yam and the red bean. The yam is one of their best selling and its tends to sold out fast. MUST TRY.

I am really surprised that this stall had not been reviewed yet. Afterall, this stall is one of the very few stalls left in singapore which are still selling the shui jing paus (crystal dumplings). Basically, it is so called because its skin is very thin and translucent, almost like a see-through. They sell three different types, the one with yam paste(80cents), red bean paste(80cents) or original(60 cents). I got the normal ones to eat and it is really very delicious. You really have to try it
