Even though Crystal Jade Jiang Nan had opened in Vivocity last year, I did not had the chance to visit until recently.

Must Try: 8 assorted xiao long bao (original, cheese, spicy beef, black truffles, foie gras, shrimp, vegetables) plus one mystery yellow ball (which is actually sweet custard) I must comment that the filling is quite huge but one person can still easily finish up the entire basket. However, the skin was not as thin as paradise group if I could recall.
hot stone of multi grain rice with anchovies ($13.00) was light on the palate and not too greasy. Might not appeal to those yearning of savoury wok-hei style rice like me but the big chunks of CHYE POH did help to add crunchiness and flavour to the dish.
The waitress took the wrong order as we wanted the double boiled chicken soup with wanton dumpling. But oh well, since it's cooked and served, there is no point changing.
Steamed Beancurd with Egg Yolk, French Bean, Carrot, Black Fungus Served in a Cup (五彩拌豆腐) ($9.80) looked really beautiful on the menu but was tasteless.
The Sichuan Chilli Fish Slices (剁椒鱼头）was a hot favourite.One avid fan of this dish commented that the red chilli was slightly sweeter than the previous ones he had but the ladies begged to differ. The spicy Sichuan chillies and sour green chillies added up to give a sensational taste and the fish being served in slices rather than as a whole brought us lots of convenience.
The service was inattentive and careless as the dessert order was left out and they served the fungus twice because the waitress had keyed in the fungus dish instead of the dessert. The price range is actually similar or even more affordable than the usual Crystal Jade restaurants
