Naturally, when I heard that Crystal Jade has an outlet that offers unlimited xiao long bao, I was attracted to the idea of relishing baskets of it. But I did not rush there immediately, and it was only until recently that I went there for the first time.Of course I made reservations and when I reached, I was taken to the 2nd storey for the buffet. The place was quite cramped, since there were a few tables catered for large groups. Sauces were displayed on a table so you have to take them yourse
Of course I made reservations and when I reached, I was taken to the 2nd storey for the buffet. The place was quite cramped, since there were a few tables catered for large groups. Sauces were displayed on a table so you have to take them yourself.
Although the main highlight is the Xiao Long Bao, I had to start off with the steamboat first. There were the usual mushrooms, yam, meat, seafood and vegetables for the steamboat and a variety of sauces. Steamboat is average and makes me full. So as I ate the steamboat items and other food such as the piping hot Char Siew Bun, I ended up finishing only 1 basket of Xiao Long Bao. I wanted to attempt breaking some sort of record, perhaps by clearing off at least 5 baskets, but failed.
As for their desserts, I tried the red bean pudding and beancurd. The beancurd is served differently from other places as it is mixed with brown syrup. Smooth, soft and reasonable level of sweetness.
