La mian and Xiao Long Baos are such comfort food. Whenever I feel down, I'd try to think about the trick xlb could do after each and every tiny bun fills my tummy. That Friday evening after driving lessons saw me over at Holland V's Crystal Jade. Normally I'd choose to dine at Ngee Ann City's outlet as it is more convinient for me, I've to say one con of eating there is that they compromise space for the possibilty of more customers. Meaning they'd 'squeeze' more table space availability for mor
However if you could(or try) get pass that, you'd understand that the food is really good. Generous portion of La Mian, about 3 times the portion of what you'd get at most noddle stalls. I like the Sze Chuan Style La Mian, it's what I'd usually order, sweet and sour with a spicy oomph. Minced pork are of not-so-fatty quality too, tender and flavourful. Chopped mini pieces of tao kua also add to the overall.
The xlbs come in longs of 5. One long all to myself satisfies me enough. Each time I'll always look forward to the soup in every xlb, it's my favourite part of it. Once I've drank the soup I'll dunk it into vinegar and topped off a little chilli flakes. So heavenly, I love.
I've also tried other items on the menu such as shredded pancake, pork dumpling, char siew pau and others. Not bad. But of course, since it's Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao, my aim of dining there is to always have la mian and xlb, they never fail to make me smile.
