crystal jade is a rip off compared to din tai fung

dtf’s xiao long pao is like the must have…dipped in vinager and eaten with ginger ….yeah..

the bad point is that if ure eating on a weekend during dinner time… u’ll probably spend most of your time waiting for your seats…they take numbers….

i rate it a 6/10 View all comments by Jared Lim

i ate at Crystal jade kitchen- holland village 2 times. at that time i didnt know different outlet has different specialities and tastes. therefore, i just ordered normal food like wanton noodle or pordrige, quite boring. maybe have to try again. heard that “la mian” at la mian xiao long bao is very nice ^^ View all comments by hana

Thanks! I like Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao and frequent the Great World City outlet as there are less people and the service is excellent. Din Tai Fung’s xiao long bao is comparatively not as good. View all comments by Veron

Crystal Jade still looks like a classy place. The waiters/resses are quite professional in their service. The only thing that makes it less classy would be, like you said, the patrons! But I guess it’s not exactly an upmarket restaurant (except for Crystal Jade Palace perhaps) so I’m fine with people going in in slacks!

I haven’t tried enough of their food I think. A must-try next time: their home-pulled la mian! View all comments by Veron

crystal jade was once a classy chinese restaurant…then one day, my friend noticed that because of its ubiquity, people were allowed to enter wearing sandals and really casual wear. To him, that kind of degraded the classiness of the place.

But everytime we’re there, xiao long bao is always the default appetiser! Their prawn dumpling noodles are also very good - the prawns are just so juicy and succulent! Also, their various fried rice dishes are very fragrant and certainly different from the usual egg-and-meat fare in hawker centres. I tried the scallop-and-crab-meat one: yummy!
