Aster Pau is a handcrafted dim sum specialist that operates from takeaway kiosks in shopping malls. Aster Pau has been expanding at a sustainable pace, now has a new kiosk at Junction 8's food hall opposite Polar Puffs & Cakes. The kiosk sells several types of steamed buns or 'bau', panfried buns, radish cakes, spring rolls, siew mai and crystal dumplings. I bought four crystal dumplings at $1.20 each. These were served piping hot from the wicker baskets stacked atop a heavy duty steamer.The cry
The crystal dumplings here are not the Teochew style types with diced turnip, preserved radish, dried shrimp and peanuts. Aster Pau's rendition of crystal dumplings is like the Hong Kong style shrimp dumplings but with much thinner, translucent skin offering a peek of the fillings. Aster's crystal dumplings have really thin, pleasantly springy chewy skin encasing two plump, juicy, crunchy prawns that had been carefully deveined and lightly seasoned, wrapped together with some finely chopped chives. This crystal dumpling was of restaurant standard and justifies its price. Very good.
