We feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don’t let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don’t say anything because we’re frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.
-Mitch Albom
Mooncake festival family gathering was at Paradise Dynasty in Ion, the new brainchild of the man behind taste paradise. The restaurant was big with private corner and opulent decorations.
And this was wot attracted me to Paradise Dynasty! flavoured XLB. Previously I've tried chilie crab XLB from Din tai feng and i tot they were nt bad!
Ard 10 mins after ordering we were served the XLB. at $16 a basket, i felt it was rather affordable! i ate the cheesy one and the original one and both were extremely yummy! I want to go back again and have 1 basket just for myself!
dumpling in chilli oil. this was nice too! the chilie was more vinegary than spicy. the skin is super thin and melts in the mouth =)
tofu with century egg. this was ok onli nth special. its a cold appetizer dish tho'
drunken chicken. this is nice! the alcohol was flavourful!
shanghai fried rice. this is one of the best fried rice i've had. super yummy! everyone finished every single bit of the rice!
i think they specialise in shanghainese food and ramen is their speciality. they offer to help you cut the noodles when they serve you. momsy said that if you are there to celebrate your bdae, you must now allow them to cut the noodles for you. so here's mine, juicy pork ramen! the broth tasted like its bn simmered for the whole day. damn yummy!
fried chicken & pork ribs that came with bro and momsy's ramen! =) i'd definitely return again. the pricing is very reasonable too! =)
