This brand from KL is similar to Crystal Jade's casual dining outlets. They serve dumplings, noodles, fried rice and a selection of dishes.
I'd say don't bother with their "xiao long bao", a.k.a. Shanghainese steamed meat dumplings (RM10.30). The skin was much too hard, especially on top, and the soup within each dumpling could not fill a teaspoon even if its life depended upon it. If you're trying to guess which one it is in my above composite, don't. It wasn't worth including.
Fortunately, the following dishes faired a little better with my tastebuds:
- Tossed jellyfish with smoked pig shank (RM16)
- Stir fried seasonal vegetables (RM18)
- Fried rice with braised pork belly and preserved vegetables (RM18)
My favourite amongst what we had was the steamed meat dumplings with chilli soya sauce (RM12). Now these turned out to be flavourful and juicy. They came swimming in an addictive vinegary soya sauce with bits of chopped garlic and chilli.
The cooking at Dragon-i isn't particularly refined but with careful selection, a satisfying meal can be had.
