Dian Xiao Er 店小二 (NEX)

Heard that Dian Xiao Er launches 16 wonderful dishes curated by their chefs from different outlet in celebration of their 20th year anniversary! I am excited with their Claypot Fish Curry available exclusively at the NEX outlet, so here I am.

Meaty Fish Tail in rich and aromatic curry spice served with assorted fresh vegetables, goes so well with a bowl of rice. We also ordered the must have Signature Herb Roasted Duck, Fish Maw Thick Soup with Seafood and Homemade Seaweed Tofu. Satisfying meal.

Dian Xiao Er boasts high quality food, wonderful ambience and high standards of service. Their Mongolian pork ribs have a smoky garlicky flavour with a chilli spice that gives you a certain kick. Vegetable dishes wise they are not oily nor too salty. Their signature herbal roast duck is really good as the dangui herbs will offset the usual gelat-ness of roast duck, making it really addictive. The service in Dian Xiao Er is amazing, as although we were at the corner table, they did not forget about our request and served our dinner promptly. What a wonderful meal!!!

Herbal roast duck infused with the herbal goodness of dang gui that is so appetizing. Didn’t know they serve brown rice too, and it’s the same price as white rice! Lots of healthy options and dishes here.

Silver Cod Fish in Supreme Soy Sauce ($27.90 .small . 400 kcal) - My girl's all time favorite & must have because she loves the yummy special sauce
🦆
Duck Roasted with Ten Wonder Herbs ($15.80 . small . 600 kcal) - How can we not have this signature dish! Hmmm but this time round, I was disappointed as the duck meat tasted 'gamey' that I didn't like
🦐
Seafood Combo with Assorted Vegetables ($15.60 . small . 210 kcal) - Fresh prawn balls with abalone slices and nutritious broccoli

NEX branch: 2nd review, different outlet. I enjoy dining at @dianxiaoersg for sumptous chinese cuisine. They are famous for their herbal ducks and it doesn't disappoint! Lovely ambience and cute decor. The food is pretty consistent but i slightly prefer the Tampines 1 outlet.

Rating: 8/10

Will i return/recommend: Yes/Yes (NEX)

Pros: Tasty food, lovely ambience. Nice and cosy interior. Easy crowd pleasing dishes with a wide variety to choose from.

Cons: Very salty and duck they gave too much bones this time, but i'm sure all these can be amended upon request.

Price: S$57.32 for fermented bean kangkong, ginseng duck, seafood fish maw, lime juice, x2 white rice

Not very healthy but this is pretty good! It taste like Bonchon Chicken to me.
