The Food
When u mentioned Dian Xiao Er to anyone, the 1st thing that came to their mind will be their house speciality herbal duck. The roast duck is available in three flavours: Angelica herb, Ten Wonder herbs and wild ginseng.
I ordered the herbal roast duck with wild ginseng, which boasts a layer of crispy skin and tender duck meat infused with herbs. The wild ginseng is not so strong smell hence still can taste the roasted duck flavour.

The Service
Even though I went on Monday evening, the restaurant was quite crowded but was immediately ushered to our table promptly once the seats are available. The waitresses were friendly and approachable too.

The Ambience
One special thing about the decor and surroundings are the tables and chairs looked like the ancient guesthouses which is quite a special experience.

The Price
Reasonably priced at $25.90 for medium size with ginseng herbs

Overall
I will definitely come back again to try the other 2 flavours and highly recommended to try this for all herbal duck lovers !!

Fried mix veggie
I like the gravy of the veggie that is absorbed by the fried beehoon around the veggie which gives some taste to the crispy edible container. For the vege, i like the nutty texture added to it which gives me something crunchy to chew on.

seafood tofu claypot
The portion is quite large, there are quite a lot of tofu and mushroom and other veggie and the gravy is nice too. I think it is a great dish for children as it is not spicy and they can mix the gravy to the rice.

The top one is hotplate tofu and the right one is fried baby romaine lettuce.The hotplate tofu is very very salty. I need to take plenty of rice to mix with the gravy. The minced meat is salty, otherwise the Tony is smooth and silky.I like this fried baby romaine lettuce. They stir fried it with red fermented bean curd and some chilling. This dish is slightly spicy but still acceptable. I like the crispy of the vegetables.

i went to dian xiao er with my mum and sis, we were feeling hungry so we ordered quite a number of dishes. we ordered the ma po tou fu, braised mushroom in chinese wine, seafood fried rice with xo sauce, marmite superior chicken wing and their signature duck roasted with ten wonder herb.

Their ma po tou fu is really spicy but goes really well with rice, despite the mind blowing hotness, it still makes you wanna keep eating. The braised mushroom in chinese wine is very. The fried rice is really fragrant due to the XO sauce. they added very fresh seafood to the dish, really delicious. everything else is really delicious as well.

Dian Xiao Er for lunch! Bought their seafood fried rice take away. Thought it was quite pricey. $7.50. However, the portion is really big! I couldn’t even finish half of it! The rice was nicely fried with prawns and seafood and egg. Very very appetizing! I kept the other half for dinner and it still tasted as good!

This outlet at Ang Mo Kio always has long queues and you have to be prepared to wait - for at least 15 minutes or more.On that day, though, we waited just five minutes.
The ambience of this restaurant is very rustic and gives one the impression that they have travelled back to the good old days - years ago!
The waitresses are aptly dressed in authentic Chinese outfits while the tables and chairs are made of wood. Actually there are more benches than there are chairs!
Even the menu is printed on paper that looks really ancient!'
Of course, one is jolted back to the present when the food arrives!
The Sharks Fin soup with Crabmeat was our starter - full of richness and sumptuous indeed! It was thick and delicious and full of flavour! It didnt really need any flavourings, such as pepper and vinegar - it was so good on its own!
Next came the Fried Bee Hoon. Though it looked light, it had been fried with some special sauce that gave it so much of rich taste - a true stealer!
For vegetables, we had the Celery with Snow Peas and Cuttlefish.
Every part of this dish was worth savouring - especially the cuttlefish!
In addition we also had the Egg omelette - packed with chives and prawns.
All these wonderful dishes went well with the free flow of Chinese Tea.
The service is fast and the food arrives pretty quickly as well.
Will definitely go back for more...
