I'm not one who usually patronizes Chinese restaurants, but Crystal Jade seemed to be the best located for dinner before sending a friend off at the airport.
crispy cuttlefish with salt & pepper
The meal started off with crispy cuttlefish with salt & pepper ($13.95++). This was one of the better dishes at the table.
pork chop with crispy garlic
The pork chops with crispy garlic ($27++) were tender and none too greasy.
Claypot Eggplant with Minced Pork and salted fish
The Claypot Eggplant with Minced Pork and Salted Fish was decent ($20.70++) but pricey. I find it difficult to justify paying so much for this dish when mixed rice stalls dish up comparable renditions of this dish...
homemade beancurd with abalone mushrooms
I felt that the homemade beancurd with abalone mushrooms ($25.20++) was even more overpriced. Thankfully, it passed the taste test.
yang zhou fried rice
The Yang Zhou fried rice ($12.80++) had nice wok hei and was something I wouldn't mind ordering again,
e fu noodles
I've never been a fan of E-fu noodles so I'll reserve my comments on the dish. A medium portion of this was priced at $18.80++ and was served with assorted mushrooms and some pieces of roast pork which could have been more crisp.
almond jelly
The almond jelly could have been more springy.
