The Roselle drink served at DTF is very concentrated, therefore I would remind the waitress to serve this drink with another glass of iced water. I would generally take a few sips when served and subsequently add the ice water to dilute the taste. Very refreshing.

Recently, I have seen dried roselle buds sold at our local markets and herbal shops. This drink is packed with ingredients believed to lower blood pressue, aid digestion if taken regularly. A specie belonging to the hibiscus family.

The fruit of Roselle plant becomes mature in about six months and that is when it gets beautiful bright red colour.

This drink goes very well with the plate of Prawn and Egg Fried Rice.

Priced: S$3.80 per glass.

Din Tai Fung prawn and egg fried rice dish is still just as good. The standard of preparation this dish is very consistent regardless of whichever outlet you visit.

Simple dish with not too many ingredients unlike other fried rice, just fresh prawns and egg omelette pieces with generous amounts of chopped spring onions and some added seasoning creates a plate of yummilicous fried rice.
I believe the restaurant uses japonica white rice ( Japanese rice) which are round and firm.

Priced at S$9.90.

Since I was at the restaurant around 11.30 am before lunch time, the place was quiet for a change. What a difference it makes. I felt so relaxed while enjoying my favourite drink and the fried rice and looking out to the MRT tracks and watching the trains goes by.

Indeed a respite from the hustle and bustle of lunch crowds and shoppers.

Went to the Din Tai Fung at Tampines (which is pretty near my place). The queue was rather long on a weekend and had to wait for around 30mins. Order a couple of dishes, including appetisers (mixed veg palate), fried rice as well as their signature xiao long bao. I particularly liked the fried. The rice are chewy with the right amount of oil (and the grains are not cluttered together). While it does not have a lot of stuff in it, the rice itself is good (but need other dishes to complement).

Another appetizer from Din Tai Fung for beancurd lovers.This special dish comprises of pieces of deep fried beancurd aka locally "tow pok", strips of black fungus, sliced mushroom and bamboo shoot cooked together with honey sauce. The crunchy slices of bamboo shoot refreshed the overall flavour of this dish. Depending on the person preparing the honey sauce, there are days when the sauce is a little bit too sweet and there are servings when the honey sauce are just right. Priced at S$4.80 per pl

If you have not tried smoked duck wrapped with spring onion in spring roll skin, you can consider adding this to your order list.This pastry is divided into smaller pieces for easy consumption and must be eaten immediately upon serving. Generous slices of thick spring onion stalks and thinly shredded lettuces goes very well with the pre-heated smoked duck meat making this appetizer more refreshing.You don't even require any sauce to go along with this dish.

Din Tai Fung not only known for their ever famous "Xiao Long Bao", their Appetizers are just as great.Fragrant Pork with Crushed Garlic is a must try. The refreshing thinly sliced lengthy pork (similar to shabu shabu cut) are wrapped with a thick sliced of fresh cucumber steeped with lots of crushed garlic sauce combined with sesame and scallions.

I have waited more than thirty minutes outside the restaurant to wait for my queue numbers before my turn is up to settle down at our table. Tough waiting but fortunately the wait was quite worth it since the restaurant environement is cooling enough and quite spacious.

Have ordered their signature Xiao long bao, which is smooth on its dumplings' skin and the minced pork inside is very juicy and tender. The la miao was nothing fantastic and I suppose it is too simple on its outlook. The taste was quite normal with only some light soya sauce flavour in it. Fortunately the texture of it is smooth and not soggy.

Fried dumplings are crispy and not too oily. The minced meat filling inside is very appetizing and easy to eat. Service here was normal and could have been better if they can put on more smiles on their face.

- Fried Rice with Prawns (of course, DTF's fried rice is their signature dish, and indeed, it was very delicious)
- xiao long bao (how can one simply not have XLB at DTF?) tried the one with crabmeat, their XLB was good, but used to be better

Din Tai Feng has been very established in Singapore now and very much well-known for their xiao long bao which is also known as meat dumplings!

We were craving for har gao which is prawn dumplings in dialect. Looking at the menu, not sure which is it so I asked the service staff. To my dismay, when the dish arrives, it was not what I wanted. It don’t taste good too. The skin was dry and thick.

Next up! Prawn fried rice!
I love this, especially the prawns which is really fresh. However, it was a little too expensive for this small plate of rice.

Ding Tai Fung Tampines is where i started my xiao long bao (steamed pork dumplings) journey.
I remember the long queue during dinner time but the staffs were very efficient in arranging and preparing seats for the next customers.

The tampines branch is always packed during dinner time but I must say that they do serve up quality food and prompt service which is a plus point for me after the long wait.

I first ordered their special Chilli crab XLB and the normal XLB and also their Egg Fried Rice and Wonton noodle soup.
I was swept off my feet when I took my first bite of the XLBs and i ended up ordering 1 more set.


Recommend this place for XLB lovers out there

Super long queue outside the restaurant. They even have a row of seats outside along with number calls. Anyway, the waiting wasn't too bad. I had my seating after like 15minutes. We had their xiao long bao (Steamed dumplings) and i find it average. The skin is a little too dry though. I ordered another dish of fragrant pork. Thin slices of pork rolled with cucumber sticks and drizzled in a thick brown sauce. Wasn't too bad!

I really don't get it. What's with the super long queue!!!! The food are almost average. I ordered crab and pork xiao long bao and it is not even comparable to those at crystal jade. I find the skin of the dumpling a tad too dry for my liking. The soup it contained is very little as well. The only point to rave about is that the service is good! Most of the staffs are either Malaysians or China from their accent.
