Came to this well known chinese restaurant to attend my colleague's wedding dinner.  This restaurant has very traditional chinese decoration around it and is spacious and comfortable. 

Service here is fast and most of the staffs here are friendly as well.  Enjoyed the 8 course wedding dinner which i had, and particular enjoyed these 3 dishes.

Cold dish which has really nice and generous serving, looks colourful and appetizing.  Like the fried spring rolls which are crispy and the mixed vegetables inside are fresh and crunchy. The cold jelly fish is also very chewy and cooling, with the added little spicyness to it.

THe fish maw soup, is flavourful and thick in texture.  Can really taste there are generous portion of fish maw and thinnly sliced mushroom in it which is nutritional.  Crispy roasted chicken has very tender and juicy meat, with super fragrant roasted chicken skin on it, super delicious!

Dim sum lunch

As there was a 1 for 1 promotion for the dim sum, my friend and I decided to try out the dim sum at Novotel Clarke Quay, Dragon Phoenix restaurant.

 Siew Mai is good, it is made with real pork and flavourful, however, it would be better if it is serve in 4 pcs instead of 3, easier to share with a friend

 The century egg porridge is so far better than the rest of the dim sum ordered, it is not too watery and not too blend and the portion is good to share with a friend. I like the spring onion and crispy thing on top of the porridge and it is serve hot

 This is not too bad prawn is chewy and fresh, the skin is not too thick. Value for money since it is 1 for 1, however, if paying full price i will not consider coming back.

 Each table comes with 10 seating with each of us given a slip of the wedding's night menu printed on a cardboard. Beverages like soft drinks and tea were free flow throughout the night.

 There are the 8 courses Meal:
(1) Phoenix Roast Platter consists of Sukling Pig, Beancurd Roll, Marinated Sea Snails, Drunken Chicken, Prawn Salad. As a start, the platter was make memorable with specially choreographed dance quite different from the rest of the banquet I had ever attended. This Chinese way of "Cold Dish" was a kick start to the dinner after a long wait at the recept.

(2) Braised Premier Moon-Cut Shark's Fin Soup with fresh crab meat and bamboo pith comes in a pot and can filled about 10 full small bowls. Light and refreshing taste, they were best served with vinegar and pepper which were self help from the table.

(3) Phoenix Spring Chicken was roasted to dry blistered looking brown color but its meat were still fork tender. The best part of it was the chicken rice chilli that that comes along, it was sweet more than spicy and went well with the chicken.

(4) Steamed Garoupa in "Hong Kong Style" with light soya sauce was one of my favourite dishes throughout the night, they were fresh garnished with handfuls of Chinese parsley and shredded gingers which reduced the fishy smell if any. However the service was abit of lacking as the server did not proportion the serving well.

(5) Wok-fried Prawns had caught me by surprised. The plate was filled with reddish dried chilli and seems so spicy to everyone of the table. Fried with onions, prawns and cashews nuts.

(6) Original Deep-fried Yam Ring with vegetables stuffing had a thin crispy exterior and a soft mushy interior ( the yam), even after eating the large piece of it, it made me feel that I just cant stop at one. When it was served, the ring was already proportionally cut, this method of serving was preferred as it reduced waiting time and the insufficiency of man power for the night.

(7) steamed Fragrant Rice in Lotus Leaf was wrapped securely in the leaves. I find it disappointing when the pack was filled with alot of rice with miserable ingredients. Though it smells good, we would prefer more ingredients to be seen in every spoonful of rice.

(8) Cream of Mango with pamelo was another mediocre item on the menu. It tasted more diluted and did not match our impression of a bowl of "Cream of Mango". Sago and Pomelo can hardly be found in the meal.

 Overall, I find that manpower was lacking, thus the disorganized service. Condiments like pepper was placed in a container which was indicated as "salt" on the bottle was seen and service received was beyond our expectations.

Nice Yusheng

Yusheng (lo hei) is a kind of raw fish salad that most Chinese will have it during Chinese New Year.

Yum Char

This is one of the best place to have dim sum, in my opinion so far. It is located at Novetel Clarke Quay. I will recommend the egg tarts, the chee cheong fan, the pork ribs, char siew bun, prawn dumpling and siew mai. Their dim sum are really fresh and good quality. It is really worth going. I really like the nice typical Chinese restaurant setting of this restaurant and it’s really a nice place for Yum Char. Service was really good as well.

Signature Egg Tarts
2012-07-21 42 views
I happened to visit this restaurant for friend's gathering and get to try their signature egg tarts. The egg tarts' crusts have been baked till really nice golden brown colour and the crust is very crunchy and not too oily. The secret recipe is the really smooth and silky custard cream topped on the egg tarts which is very fragrant and not too sweet too. The price may be abit high, but because of its great taste and good service, I will still buy it during my next visits.

Egg Tart
2012-07-16 68 views
If you happen to pass by this chinese restaurant located at River valley, do drop by and buy and buy their egg tart as they are simply so delicious and irresistable. THe custard filling in it is very smooth and not too sweet. The biscuit crust is very crispy, bake till really nice golden brown and is full of the fragrant from the butter used in baking it. Usually sold out very fast so do go there early to avoid disappointment.

It was well seasoned as well. the siew mai was really good, they use really fresh meat and it was very tasty. The custard bun was fried on the outside, the inside was soft and fluffy. The custard was not too sweet too and it was very creamy. The food is really good but it was very pricey if not for the half price discount our bill would be quite expensive.

It’s the best mooncake i had this year! Ordered the white lotus paste with single egg yolk mooncake as I’m not a fan of egg yolk. When i cut the mooncake, i was quite disappointed as the yolk is right in the middle( that means i’ll have to eat the yolk too...). But to my surprise, i actually like the additional blend of flavour. Their egg yolk lifted the whole taste, not too dry, not too oily but just nice! The lotus paste is great too.

Sweetness level is just right and there’s is a special fragrance, coming from melon seed/lotus seed that makes eating a pleasure and worst of all... forgetting that it’s sinful! i ate a quarter of it at one go! Sounds little?? Well.. girls( like myself ) should watch their diet...

Mini cheese mooncakes

Dragon Phoenix Restaurant's Mini Cheese Mooncakes ($38 for a box of 20) come with a tender shortcrust pastry crust is a great baked mooncake alternative for those who dislike the richness of the quintessential Cantonese version.

I loved how the tender and flaky pastry of these two-bite mooncakes simply crumbled away in my mouth! Smooth with a melt-in-your-mouth texture, the smooth, sweet lotus paste was nicely complemented by the savory cheese flavor incorporated into the buttery crust as well as the salted egg yolk embedded in the filling. Just like Home's Favourite's durian mooncakes, these were something I knew I had to get when I first tasted them at the Takashimaya Mooncake Fair.

As with other mooncakes with flaky crusts, these Mini Cheese Mooncakes should be best consumed within a few days to guarantee freshness. But don't worry, they're still scrumptious even if you keep them for longer than that!
