Last Friday, I went with the ‘Motley Crew’ for dinner at the ‘Dynasty Paradise’ restaurant to celebrate two members’ in the group’s birthday. There were nine of us.
Dynasty Paradise is one of many restaurants owned by Singapore-based restaurant group ‘Paradise Group Holdings Pte Ltd” The company's restaurants serve a variety of Chinese cuisine.
To make things easier, and since all are fairly easy going when it comes to food, we decided to go for the set menu, which caters to groups of between eight to ten people.
The set has eight dishes.
We started with their ‘Signature original Xiao Long Bao’
Followed by ‘Braised four treasure broth’. We were not quite sure what the four treasure were, but the broth was nice. This is ‘Steamed Jade sea bass with supreme soya sauce’ ‘Scrambled egg white with crystal prawn’ ‘Braised pork belly Shanghai style’ ‘Stir-fried french bean with minced pork and preserved olive vegetable’ ‘Fried rice with shrimp in XO sauce’ ‘Black sesame glutinous rice ball served in ginger soup’The photos of the food are individual portions.
In a typical Chinese restaurant, there would be round tables, with a ‘lazy Susan’ on the table top. This will make it easier for the diners to get at the food. But, for some reason, maybe it is to conserve space, the Dynasty Paradise we were at doesn’t have round tables.
In such a situation, it would be difficult to take one’s share of the food, and then pass the dish from one end of the table to the other. Luckily, the service staff apportioned the food for us. We all got an equal share.
And, of course, there’s the birthday cake. It was very nice. Light, and not too sweet. We all had a great evening. The food was nice. The service was good. And the company was fabulous, as always.You can click on the picture for a better view.
