Paradise Dynasty is a name I am sure need no introduction, as many must have known about it by now. It is fame for its colourful Xiao Long Bao in various filling. Some may find certain filling exotic when it was first introduced. I did back then.


Dynasty Signature Xiao Long Bao
Based on the name, Dynasty 8 Flavours Xiao Long Bao, one would have known that there are 8 flavours.

 The original is in the centre. Starting from the Green, clockwise; Ginseng, Foie Gras, Truffle, Cheesy, Garlic and Crab Roe and Szechuan. If diner like any a particular flavour, diner could order just for that flavour in 6s or 10s. Personally, my favourite is still the original.

Shanghai Dim Sum
On Paradise Dynasty Menu, 14 Shanghai Dim Sum are offered. They are mainly the classic Shanghai Dim Sum.

 Pork Dumpling with Hot Chilli Vinaigrette is a dish I seldom order. In fact, I ordered it only once. It is not that I didn’t like it but I don’t usually dine with a huge enough group to allow me to order both the Xiao Long Bao and Pork Dumpling.

La Mian
Paradise Dynasty offers 8 La Mian in Pork Bone Soup selections and 9 other La Mian.

 La Mian in Signature Pork Bone Soup has a dense an rich soup full of pork flavour. And I like the egg with runny yolk that came with the bowl of noodle soup. All the La Mian in this category are similar except for the main topping.

 Pork Dumpling La Mian in Chilli Sauce and many more are available for selection. Noodles are very much the same. Likewise, it depends on what ingredient does diners prefer to have it with the handmade noodles.

Dishes
Scrambled Egg White with Fish and Conpoy has mainly egg white topped with only a single yolk on centre. It is not quite my kind of dish as I prefer yolk. But I like this dish.

 For Szechuan Specialty, one could turn to Spicy Szechuan Crispy Chicken. The chicken in this dish was so crispy. I find the spice level acceptable.

 Shanghai Fried Rice is pretty similar to the Yangzhou Fried Rice except that it is fried with an additional dark sauce. Personally, I still prefer the YangZhou Fried Rice.

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 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.

 The restaurant is HUGE. You don't have to worry about the space here. I came here during lunch early, and it almost seemed like we had the whole place to ourselves. So we chose the seat which is nearest to the glass tall window, which offers us the view of the opposite Sentosa.

There is only Pu-er tea here, so that's what we had.

The lady waitress handed us the menu, and we ordered the signature 8 flavor dumplings ($14.80) at once!

 8 flavoured soup dumplings

The soup dumplings were served in multi-colours, namely: White, Green, Light Brown, Black, Yellow, Orange, Grey and Pink. (WHAT?!, you ask.)

Take note, what's interesting is, there's an order to eating these things!

Remember the colours I mentioned above? I have already put them in its eating order.

The flavours:

White: Original Soup Dumpling flavour (Start with this one)

Green: Ginseng

Light Brown: Foie Gras

Black: Black Truffle

Yellow: Cheesy

Orange: Crab Roe

Grey: Garlic

Pink: Szechuan (End with this!)

Apparently, eating it in order enhances the overall taste and will best bring out each of the 8 distinct flavours! To me, the ones which stood out to me the most were the original flavour, the foie gras and the black truffle. The rest had a good taste overall (I totally wasted the Ginseng one because mine broke!!!!!) but did not stand out like the 3 flavours I just mentioned.

The 3 flavours were rich in its soupy formula and nice to taste. If I had to pick my favourite, it would be the Black truffle Xiao Long Bao. My least favourite, however, was the Szechuan (pink) one. I would have appreciated it further if it was more flavourful, rather, it was very mild and not exciting enough.

We also ordered other dishes:

 La Mian with Pork Slices and Signature Pork Bone Soup

The La Mian with Sliced Pork in Signature Pork Bone soup ($9.80) was very good in totality. The noodles were of the right consistency, the pork tasted just right (with the right amount of fat), the egg was slightly wobbly in texture but firm.

 Ta-dah! Ready to enjoy!

The soup base - OH LA LA - I must say. It was delicious yet did not feel overpowering, like some bone soups can be. It did not taste like it was made up of MSG. I understand from the menu that the this soup has been simmered under slow fire for 12 hours (SERIOUSLY!). I would rate this dish 4 golden stars. hahaha. It fits my requirements for a good lunch, you know. The portion is good for 2 people to enjoy, if you're also ordering the soup dumplings - which is a must-have since you're in a restaurant which specialises in soup dumplings right!

 Crisp-Fried Whitebait with Salt and Pepper

Crisp-Fried Whitebait with Salt and Pepper ($9.80) was well done. I loved the slight taste of salt as I munch down these crispy things. No taste of pepper, but this makes for a very good snack.
Unfortunately, I felt that it was quite expensive for such a small plate. The size is not exactly worth its price.

 Shanghai Fried Rice

The Shanghai fried rice ($10.80) is nice, it is not too oily and not too dry. Ingredients also tasted fresh and succulent (prawn bits).

 Cold tofu with Century Egg

What do you get when you put cold tofu and century egg together? One of my favourite dishes! This dish was appetizing and a tad salty. But the good kind, if you know what I mean. Century egg is something you enjoy if you love it, and if you don't love it, you'll probably never enjoy it no matter how they make it. Thank goodness, I love it! Such a boring name and a literal translation at that - Cold tofu with Century Egg ($6.80), pretty much explains it all.


Dessert Time! How can we miss this out?

 Pan fried Pastry Red Bean Pancake

We shared the Souffle Egg White Balls Stuffed with Red Bean and Banana (3 pcs for $4.80) and the Pan fried Pastry Red Bean Pancake ($6.50).

I can't say I love the dessert, because I'm not exactly a red bean and banana person. But I have to say that they have made this traditional dessert very well and I enjoyed eating it regardless. I also like that for the red bean pancake, the outer skin tastes like puff pastry. It was interesting to eat and it's something I would recommend to my friends to check out.

In summary, I feel that the food here is still a tad expensive, but really worth a try! But for the budget conscious, I would really just order the noodle soup and the 8 coloured soup dumplings, because these 2 dishes have left the most impact on me during this visit.

 Original - one word. Juicy. the best word to describe XLB. cos if there is no soup inside, it will fail big time for XLB

Ginseng - a very light taste of ginseng but not very strong.

Foie Gras - Manz, i think other than truffle, this is the more exquisite XLB. The taste is like you have a mouthful of steam foie gras but i still prefer

Black Truffle - This is my favourite. I dont know when truffles become my favourite but this is definitely a must eat for me. Filled with 1 thinly sliced truffle. The relationship between truffle and XLB is a "made in heaven" match

Cheesy - not my cup of tea. I seriously find it taste weird when cheese is mixed with minced pork especially those that is marinated to XLB taste. Maybe i am not too cheese person.

Crab Roe - the most sinful among all but it taste sooo good.

Garlic - this one is quite normal except it has a garlic taste. Overall the taste is still ok

Sze Chuan - i almost choke due to it's spiciness .

 this happens to be one of my favourite dish lately. The raw egg yolk mixed into the egg white and crab meat together with vinegar. It may sound a weird dish to many but it taste really good! the vinegar apparently can remove the "xin" aka raw smell and taste of the crab meat and raw egg yolk!

 Slice Pork Lamian in Signature Pork Bone Soup
This is really comfort food to me. Featuring lamian with a texture and bite that was just right, 5 big slices of pork, a generous portion of seaweed, half an egg (flavourful and the yolk was still a little runny, perfect!) and xiao bai cai, I thought this bowl was perfect in every way. It provides carbs, substantial amount of veg and protein in a very lovely and comforting broth. However I personally prefer if the pork slices were a little more fatty, which will give the meat more flavour and tenderness as I find it quite dry and tough. Other than that, this dish is great and I'd definitely order it again.

 Signature 8 Flavour Xiao Long Bao
The 8 flavours are original, ginseng, foie gras, black truffle, cheese, garlic, crab roe, szechuan. I tried these 4 flavours --> Original: not very nice, I still prefer Crystal Jade's. Black Truffle: the soup had a hint of truffle, I quite liked it. Crab Roe: I could taste and see a little of the roe. Garlic: had a subtle garlicky taste. Overall the flavours are all quite light, a stronger taste would be good for me. These are worth a try but I feel that it's nothing memorable on the whole.

 Drunken Chicken
I've always loved this dish hence I ordered it when I saw it on their menu. Served cold, the chicken leg doused with wine was nice and did not deviate from how it should taste like. The chicken could be more tender though.

They have many other lamian offerings and I'll be back to try them!
Do note that plain water is chargeable at 30cents.

My family wanted a simple reunion dinner among ourselves, so we settled for Paradise Dynasty. While waiting for my sister to arrive, we ordered the Chilled Sliced Pork Belly with Minced Garlic and Soya Sauce as I was really hungry. This was basically sliced pork belly rolled up with julienne cucumbers inside, topped with minced chilli garlic with chilli oil. This was okay, a little spicy for me.

For the set menu itself, we got CNY Set A, which is $148 for 3-4 pax. There were 5 of us actually but the portions were just right for us. The set consists of the following 6 items.

1) Salmon Yu Sheng
This was pretty good! The sauce was pretty light on the palate and all the vegetables were cut thinly and smooth (some other places have their vegetables roughly cut, which doesn't taste as nice). All of us were also provided with long chopsticks for the tossing of the yusheng, I was quite amused by it heh.

 2) Double-boiled Chicken Soup
I've always been a fan of double-boiled chicken soup at Chinese restaurants like Crystal Jade and Din Tai Fung. This one from Paradise Dynasty was also nice, slightly lighter in taste but still flavourful and you could clearly taste the essence of the chicken. Just thinking about this again is making me salivate! There were 2 huge chunks of chicken meat with the soup. Usually the meat that comes with Chinese soups can be quite dry and tasteless after the long hours of boiling and simmering, but these 2 pieces of chicken were still pretty tender, much to my delight. I ate up all the meat


3) Steamed Marble Gobyin Supreme Soya Sauce
Also known as Soon Hock, this fish was pretty yummy as it was very smooth and the meat came off the bones easily. However, the meat seemed just a wee bit soft. I've also always liked the soya sauce that does with the fish.

4) Braised White Cabbage with Dried Scallop
As the name goes, this dish consisted of braised cabbage with shredded dried scallops. The cabbage had been braised till it was really soft and it had absorbed the flavours of the gravy. The dried scallops tasted a little salty, as though it had not been washed sufficiently (You know how some dried seafood naturally has sea salt taste? This is what I'm referring to).

 5) Stir-fried Noodles with Minced Pork and Shredded Black Fungus
The noodles were pretty good, with the taste of wok hei. I could not taste nor see the minced pork but there were bean sprouts, shredded cabbage and black fungus, which was good enough for me.

6) Chilled Aloe Vera with Osmanthus in Honey Lemon Juice
This was more like a honey lemon drink with aloe vera cubes, wolfberries and some osmanthus flowers in it. This was really nice and refreshing, feels great when you have it after a filling meal.

There's also something else that I'd like to mention... The restaurant was quite crowded on the day we were there and it seemed like the restaurant was short on staff. However the lady who served us was very cheerful and friendly the whole time she served us
Good service!
