My friend and I went over to paradise dynasty on the eve of xmas, and there was quite a big crowd so we had to wait for quite some time. Rough waiting time would be around 30-45 mins for us, probably because it was on the eve of xmas. I guess it's inevitable since it's the eve of a public holiday and a festive occasion as well. Apparently, their La Mian was pretty popular and eight out of nine of us all ordered La Mian. In fact, they have a great variety here too! I think there were 10 different kinds at least.
My boyfriend ordered Shanghai fried rice, at $10.80
Prepared with fresh prawn and chicken chunks, this fried rice outstands other normal fried rice with a tangy soy sauce. It's quite filling for 1pax definitely. The ingredients are very fresh and there was an appropriate amount of it, pretty well done! Then mine was the Chicken chop la mian, $10.80 as well.
First, the portion is small for a normal person. I've been trying to cut down my carbo intake so I didn't finish it either. But the portion is really small for a guy, at least. The broth looks oily, yup it's a little. The soup is especially bland to me, so I was disappointed. I'm a fan of strong tasted broth so I think this was ordinary. The Chicken cutlet was good though! Wasn't very oily. We definitely ordered more than what you see here, which fetch a bill of $200+ (9 of us). But like I've mentioned, I didn't take photos of them, sorry!
But here's what I thought were worth a mention:
1. Pork Dumpling with Chili Sauce $4.80
2. Pan Fried Pork Dumpling $3.90
3. Shang Hai Pork Bun $4.50
Alright overall, I would like to commend their delicious cuisine served in an appropriate pace. We ordered a total of 4 sets of XLB and they were served at staggered times, which was very meticulous because the XLB will turn cold before we can even finish the first set.
Ambience
The whole restaurant was set in a slightly dim lightings, which sets me in a very good mood to enjoy the food and music. What I really suggest is to come in a group so that you can try out a bit of every dish, without spending a lot. The price are pretty much the same as those of Crystal Jade, and if i'm not wrong, cheaper than that! In my humble opinion, Crystal's jade standard has deteriorated due to it's increased commercialization, so why not spending elsewhere (paradise dynasty) when they are still put in the effort to keep their standard there?
Service
The waiters are very polite as well! They come to your service pretty fast too. If you want to replenish hot water for your tea, they are willing to do so immediately as well.
Hope you enjoyed my review! Seriously, do visit Paradise dynasty for a change.
