From Dim Sum Inc by Crystal Jade; the new concept at Pagoda Street is the group's casual, quick-service concept that serves a slightly curated menu of Dim Sum, appetizers, rice, noodle and roasted meat dishes as compared to the usual full service Crystal Jade restaurants.

Opted for the Crystal Jade Signature Pork Belly and Crispy Pork Belly for the double combination — the former being an item that is only available in limited portions daily. Between the two, the Crystal Jade Signature Pork Belly takes the cake; while similar to Roasted Honey BBQ Pork, the cuts of the meat were pretty fatty yet comes with a bite — sliced to a reasonable thickness for good texture, the meat also was smothered in a sweet Honey BBQ sauce for flavour. The Crispy Roast Pork Belly has a good proportion of fatty to lean meat with a crisp skin; not particularly porky or meaty but we did find it lacking in terms of savouriness — preferred it to come with a more prominent flavour of the spice rub used for the marination of the meat.
