In the elegant setting of Xin Divine, you can indulge in traditional Chinese ingredients and cooking techniques that have been enhanced with a European touch. Which is why dishes may seem new yet familiar.
Case in point: the “Osmanthus Sphere” shown above in “before” and “after” shots. It is a perfect example of the progressive Chinese cuisine you can expect here.
To the eye, this dessert is both beautiful and novel but once I burst it and had a taste, I immediately thought of “cheng tng”, the popular Chinese dessert.
I liked that the level of sweetness in this creation of winter melon soup jelly, osmanthus flower, wolfberries and “pang da hai” was well-controlled. Served alongside it was a glass of a fizzy red date drink which I could choose to have on its own or to pour in with the jelly (I went with the former). A truly delightful end to tonight’s meal for sure.
