This has to be one of the best deal I enjoyed in 2014 Mayim Chinese Cuisine is located in Northpoint Shopping Mall. We had two good hours to wait before the movie's screening at Yishun Golden Village, so we decided to try Mayim's Buddha Jump Over the Wall and Whole Abalone Set Dinner Menu.Mayim is usually packed with shoppers over the weekend, naturally as people started to enjoy sit down dinner after their "retail therapy".

Mayim Chinese Cuisine is located in Northpoint Shopping Mall. We had two good hours to wait before the movie's screening at Yishun Golden Village, so we decided to try Mayim's Buddha Jump Over the Wall and Whole Abalone Set Dinner Menu.
Mayim is usually packed with shoppers over the weekend, naturally as people started to enjoy sit down dinner after their "retail therapy". You have to be prepared to wait if you arrive after 7pm during the peak period, especially weekends or Public Holiday. We waited for a good ten minutes before we were ushered to a table for two. There was a long queue behind us.This Set Dinner Menu was really awesome. I will introduced each of the dish.
Buddha Jump Over the Wall
This came by default with the set. They did not compromise on the quality though it was part of a set dinner. The original a la carte price was S$28. It was served hot and the Chinese soup consisted of all the goodies you can imagine such as slice abalone, dried scallop, fish maw, mushroom, shark's fin, sea cumcumber, chicken pieces, dried bamboo shoots and chinese ham. I really love it!!!
New Zealand Deep Green AbaloneThis also came by default with the set. Each of us was served a whole piece of abalone. The abalone was from New Zealand and it was very tasty, chewy and amazing. The original a la carte price was S$35. I really love it!
Stewed Sakura deep sea King Prawn with flavored bean threadThis dish is under Mix & Match Menu which you can select from a listing of dishes as part of the set. The prawn was not as huge as the menu photo but it was very fresh and the skins were easily peeled from the prawn. The bean thread was delicious. I wish they had served more bean thread.
Golden Prawn Coated with Mayonnaise SauceThis dish is is under Mix & Match Menu which you can select from a listing of dishes as part of the set. The prawn was fried to the right texture (golden colored) and coated with mayonnaise sauce for the perfect taste!
Golden Fried Scallop stuffed with cuttlefish paste in spiced salt
This dish is under Mix & Match Menu which you can select from a listing of dishes as part of the set. The scallop was huge and enclosed with the "capsule". The external of the "capsule" was covered with cuttlefish. This is the perfect seafood experience when you combine scallop and cuttlefish together!
Chilled Mango Pudding with StrawberryThis chilled dessert came by default with the set. There were real slices of mango hidden inside the bowl of mango pudding as you digged in. A good comfort food to wrap up for the dinner!
Overall, we enjoyed our dinner very much. The total worth of the dishes was really more than what you would have paid for, compared to if you have ordered the dish separately. The quality of the food were high. The waitresses' customer services were reasonable as they were too busy serving a crowed and packed restaurant. We would definitely make a return trip.
