Din Tai Fung 鼎泰丰

No special occasion or reason, I and my boyfriend came here for a dinner. Maybe it was normal for somebody to dine-in here, but for me, I appreciated deeply.Transparent kitchen in front of us, it proved that the food was freshly prepared on the spot.Handmade noodles which pleasantly tossed with minced pork and mushrooms in bean sauce, it was originally created by Din Tai Fung.I ordered this, another signature dish by Ding Tai Fung. The dumplings was satisfying with a generous amount of filling. The prawn was obviously fresh. It was traditionally contained minced pork and shrimp, wrapped in a delicate dough skin, which was then pleated, twisted at the top and steamed. Juicy meat which was easily melted in your mouth.Packed with goodness, it was healthy. Steamed dumplings laden with the finest truffles, a must try snack.

Overall, I like the cozy environment here although the price charged was a bit higher.

We were relieved to find the prices at the MBS' Din Tai Fung no different from those at its other outlets. It is easy to.know why there is a minimum waiting time of 15minutes here even for a table that seats only two diners. A few steps away at the Rasapura Food Court, noodle dishes are priced from $6.80. At DTF, you get your food served to you at the table. One dish meals like fried rice with pork chop costs $9.90++ while noodles with toppings are priced from $8++.The chicken soup with noodles $10.80++ is a mildly flavoured & clean tasting dish. The noodles and chicken soup are served separately and the diner can add as much or as little of the soup to the noodles as desired. The soup contained a mix of thigh and breast meat. It would have been nice if some wolfberries and/or chinese almond seeds had been added to the soup to enhance its flavour & anemic colour. The beef noodles $11++ was not bad too. We ordered a plate of sauteed spinach $9++ and 6pcs of xiaolongbao $7.30++ for sharing.
