This is really as good as people say. The texture isnt too crazy but the flavours are special. There's this almost kinda funny flavour from alcohol presumably as well as this refreshing aftertaste. Im not doing it justice, this is really special
Just try
Mother’s day dinner @jadepalacesg
I have been craving for peking duck for very long time. This place might not be a famous for peking duck, at least the food is good.
Crispy tofu ($8) Mr.W ‘s favourite dish but this one is full of garlic. Honestly this is not great. Quite dry….
Peking Duck (1/2) $46
I was shocked to see there were only 8 piece!! I could have eaten all these on my own!! And i DIDNT! This is not a bad at least good enough to satisfy my craving. And the 2nd dish!! I had the duck meat fried with E fu noodle. I have also craved for e fu noodle for long time. Ok you are forgiven for the small quantity for peking duck. Little Miss W was very happy with the prawn cracker.
Broccoli with bamboo shoot and mushroom ($30) the broccoli was very crunchy, cooked just right. Hate the overcooked broccoli at home 😵💫 so that Little miss W would eat it like a old grandma needs soft veggie…. 😫
Crispy chicken (1/2) $28
Always nice to have this in restaurant because it is hard to cook this at home. Satisfied my another craving and thank god this one had no garlic! Or Mr.W would give me black face.
E fu noodle fried with duck meat
The duck meat was soo tough… still happy that i could order the noodle as part of the peking otherwise i would have ordered it as a separate dish.
Little Miss W saw the noodle, she nearly bursted into tears saying “This is not the noodle i want “ I simply said this is mummy’s favourite noodle. Trust me you will like it and this is not that easy to find in singapore, usually only in HK restaurants. She had a a mouth full. I saw a smile on her face. She has very similar taste in food as me. I was sure she would like it. She then said when we travel to HK, is it affordable to have it🤣🤣 yes certainly. Can be 3 times cheaper too!
Overall a very satisfying dinner to me. Not cheap! About 1/3 of the dinner last night….. but Its mama day! Once in a while i can be selfish and picked what i like. Actually i didnt….. i saw there is lamb stew in the special menu… and i also wanted to order the claypot rice. But only 3 of us, its hard to order these two…. 😫
It pays to take heed of recommendations from people we trust. In this case, it was Mr. Ho, the General Manager of the restaurant who told us we needed to try the Bamboo Shoot dish. Well, it turned out to be fantastic! Lightly fried, the young bamboo shoots were juicy and succulent and completely addictive. I could have finished the whole plate by myself if we didn’t have more food coming. Definitely a must-order at Jade Palace.
The other major show-stealer amongat the dishes we ordered was this Prawns with Vermicelli in Claypot.
All five of us could not hold back our praises for the fresh, large and super sweet crustaceans, and the strands of glass vermicelli that were strongly aromatic and flavourful from being saturated in the sauce.
I recall having eaten this dish (or something very close to it) decades ago and was thrilled to encounter the familiar flavours again.
After our dinner here during Chinese New Year, we were eager to return to Jade Palace for another slap-up feast.
On this recent visit, we had our hearts set on the Claypot Rice, a speciality of theirs. In fact, there is an an entire page in Jade Palace’s menu devoted to mouthwatering variations of the dish. We chose the one with salted duck and three kinds of very fragrant Chinese preserved sausages - the classic pork, a duck liver and a goose liver ($88++), which were interestingly, served separate from the rice. These meats, as well as the practice of finishing off by scraping the remaining “burnt” rice from the sides of the pot and pouring in a clear soup to mix and enjoy, contributed greatly to this dish being unforgettable.
Uber flavourful soup. Generous portions of tender beef and tendon. QQ hongkong standard noodles. Give this bowl of noodles to me anytime!
Dim sum standard also on form - fave items were the Yam pastries, fried carrot cake and siew mais. 🤤
Love durian sticky rice rolls from Hong Kong-style dessert shops? These bite-sized balls wrapped by a thin glutinous rice flour skin filled with luscious durian pulp are so much better! . 😍 Love how it was chilled, not frozen or halfway through defrosting. A great way to end a meal for durian lovers!
Available during lunch and dinner.
Part of the $38 lunch set, this is such a treat! So worth it with dim sum, a soup that has fantastic depth, and a dessert. Came with my mother in law for a lunch treat!
This family-run restaurant in Forum the Shopping Mall serves a variety of set meals that are great for hosting business associates. Using only quality ingredients like Alaskan crab, Soon Hock fish and South African abalones, the meal is bound to impress your dining partners. The Lobster and Dim Sum Set ($38) is very value for money, featuring three kinds of dim sum, a delightful double boiled soup, roasted duck and soya chicken, stewed lobster noodles and a dessert. Aside from set meals, the Beef Brisket Noodle ($12.80) is also worth ordering for its tender to bite beef chunks, and get the Steamed Malay Cake ($4) for a sweet fix. For drinks, the restaurant prides itself on wine pairing, evident with their racks of wine around the restaurant. Just ask the friendly in-house sommelier for recommendations. Pro tip: Feel free to BYO. There’s no corkage fee here!
Avg Price: $40 per person

Can’t go wrong with this fluffy block of steamed cake from the Dim Sum Menu (lunch only) — not too sweet and uber pillowy!
Miss Hong Kong’s braised beef brisket with super boing boing noodles? Get your fix sorted here!
Not the cheapest but you’ll get your money’s worth with that super generous pile of fork-tender beef and melt-in-the-mouth tendon pieces. So satisfying! 😍
While most places would just chuck this in the bin or use it in stocks, they season and batter chicken joints/soft bones here and transform them into moreish morsels sprinkled with minced garlic (with a teenie weenie bit of chopped chilli). Couldn’t stop munching on these crunchy, addictive bites!
A guilty pleasure for sure. Sandy salted egg on the outside, but the pork cheek remains moist and juicy inside. This disappeared in seconds. 👍
Yes. They serve quite a huge range of dishes and food. The hidden gem on its dimsum menu is the beef brisket noodles. There is no version better than this in SG and very comparable to the best in HK. Beef parts and tendons are tender and well prepared. Tendons are braised just right, retaining the sinewy yet soft texture at various junctures. The noodles are the authentic eggy springy thin type. I need to stop now and eat another portion
I use to come here quite often for but stopped for a couple of years (no particular reason). Out of the blue, I decided to step back in today for a quick lunch and found that generally, the standard is still pretty good, but not excellent. What I liked: the "chee cheong fun" wrapped fried dough sticks, the simple, clean-tasting fish porridge and a few of the monthly special "dim sum" items. These include the steamed fresh crabmeat and egg white dumplings, sweet corn prawn balls and stir fried Shanghai "xiang wu san" with "xue chai". What I found a little disappointing: the "liu sha bao". I much prefer the one from East Ocean Teochew Restaurant.
What’s a dim sum sesh without this oozetastic bao! Super flowy filling and a good balance between sweet and savoury. 👌🏼
