To cut the story short: the service staff standards definitely do not match to its interior grandeur. No smiles and we constantly felt like they were rushing us to finish our meal so that they can close for the day (it wasn't even time for last order yet). Moreover, billing took a really long time - far longer than the duration we took to finish our meal. What's more, they missed out one of our orders for the Coloured XLBs - without apologies. For me, it's quite disastrous service... needs much

To cut the story short: the service staff standards definitely do not match to its interior grandeur. No smiles and we constantly felt like they were rushing us to finish our meal so that they can close for the day (it wasn't even time for last order yet). Moreover, billing took a really long time - far longer than the duration we took to finish our meal. What's more, they missed out one of our orders for the Coloured XLBs - without apologies. For me, it's quite disastrous service... needs much more improvement to even be considered as a respectable Chinese dimsum restaurant.

The Sweet and Sour Soup was much spicier and piquant than DTF's. Sorry for the comparison but had no idea how to give you a better picture. The pepper was overkill and I choked on it on the first mouthful - nah, I kid. I forgot to mix it in during my excitement. After a while it gets really tasty and I couldn't get enough of it. Recommended. Their signature Xiaolongbaos are really very juicy, they packed it to its maximum potential and yet the soup isn't unbearably hot. Recommended too. Pork La-mian was forgettable, the soup was fragrant, simmered with pork and rich enough, but nothing too special. My favourite dish of the night was their Spicy Zha Jiang Mian. It wasn't too spicy like the sweet and sour soup, but the sauce was very thick with copious amounts of pork.The cucumber was also very fresh and packed with juice, which makes the perfect complementary sauce to the noodles. Easily my favourite Zha Jiang Mian anywhere. The Pork Buns were quite a surprise as they packed soup inside its skin, but it got a little soggy after a while. I might endure their service for the good food, but then again I'll gladly give my money to somewhere else that has the best of both worlds.
