I like the food here. You have relatively simple fare from Shanghai but modified to suit Singaporean's palate.For example, you will notice that the xiao long bao skin is quite thin just like Ding Tai Feng, and also it's not as salty. I have been to Shanghai before and the baos there are thicker in skin texture and saltier.But you also get mains like Drunken Chicken, Jelly fish with vinegar, crab with egg flower, and the soup is really good. I have chicken soup and also the sweet and sour soup. B

But you also get mains like Drunken Chicken, Jelly fish with vinegar, crab with egg flower, and the soup is really good. I have chicken soup and also the sweet and sour soup. Both did not disappoint.
However, there was once I ordered the wrong item and I requested for a change. Initially they were quite reluctant to do so but they did eventually as the manager intervene. So I have the chance to try the Shanghainese vegetable rice, and spicy rice.
What's unusual about the spicy rice is that they sprinkle some chili tapoica flakes on top of the rice, which gives it a sweet and crunchy texture.
I like it here, highly recommended for a simple meal in a rainy day.
