Went to airport to farewell for my friend as she was going to fly to Japan to do her attachment. We had decided to organize the farewell at Dian Xiao Er(DXE) as she is going to stay at Japan for 3 months and all of us think that she will be missing the Chinese cuisine as in Japan it is hardly to find a local, cheap and delicious Chinese restaurant. We had order two set of dinner set. One set A dinner for 4 person and one Healthy set dinner for 5 person. We had total of 9 person. As we want to t
We had order two set of dinner set. One set A dinner for 4 person and one Healthy set dinner for 5 person. We had total of 9 person. As we want to try more variety of dishes, we decided to go for two set dinner instead of order one set dinner for 9 person. The difference is that the portion offered is smaller for both of the dinner set but we had the chances to try more variety of dishes.
We had tried the ten wonder roasted duck. This dish is the main signature dish from DXE. It really did tasted nice. I like the roasted duck. It was tender and it smell very nice with the herbs marinated onto it. There are three sauce for the roasted duck. One of them is the ten wonder which is what we ordered, this sauce is more chef recommended as it is the sweetest among the three sauce and the herbs fragrance is not that strong compare to the rest. This sauce is more suitable for some of the customer and children who don't like and cannot withstand with the taste of the strong herbs.
We had ordered the wheat tofu. This wheat tofu is made by the restaurant themselves. The wheat tofu is fried then it is served with sauce together with broccoli, some seafood and veggie. This dish is also chef recommended as the wheat tofu is a more healthy choice for city people who lead a busy lifestyle. The saltiness was just nice for me and i like the tofu. The tofu had a crispy outer skin with a very fine soft texture for the inner flash.
This dish name is baby kailan. The kailan is fried with chilies and green lime and thus the dish has a very unique taste. It tasted sour and spicy at the same time. The veggie was very fresh and well-cooked. The taste of sour and spicy was just nice for me. It tasted very "harmony" together with the veggie and the sauce. I like it very much.
This dish called dong po rou. I think this dish was just normal for me. The pork was a little bit oily for me. But still ok for overall. The sauce was a little bit too oily and cold for me as it cool down very fast.
For the healthy dinner set, they had herbal jelly as dessert. The herbal jelly tasted normal, nothing special to impress me. And the syrup offered is just melted white sugar instead of honey. I don't like it.Will visit DXE again as i want to try others food.
