Went to Vivocity Paradise Dynasty, which was conveniently located at Harbourfront MRT station.Finally got to try the famous 8 flavoured xiao long bao! The 8 flavours are Original, Garlic, Ginseng, Foie Gras, Black Truffle, Cheese, Crab Roe, and Szechuan. My personal favourites are the foie gras and ginseng. This is because they tasted closest to their names, while displaying fragrance and flavour that makes you crave for more. The crab roe and cheese taste weird in my opinion, but it still was i

Finally got to try the famous 8 flavoured xiao long bao! The 8 flavours are Original, Garlic, Ginseng, Foie Gras, Black Truffle, Cheese, Crab Roe, and Szechuan. My personal favourites are the foie gras and ginseng. This is because they tasted closest to their names, while displaying fragrance and flavour that makes you crave for more. The crab roe and cheese taste weird in my opinion, but it still was interesting and innovative to come out with different flavour xiao long baos. The garlic and black truffle however were not really convincing. I had expected more flavour from the garlic one as garlic dishes usually taste strong in garlic taste.
We ordered 8 pieces for each pax and it was just sufficient for us to keep our tummies filled. For big eaters, you may wish to order another small dish to add on.
The restaurant is big and spacious with plenty of seatings. There may be a short wait during peak meal times. Staffing is bad though. We had to wait very long for our orders and for the bill.
