Jing Hua Xiao Chi (Neil Road)

Nice and good and tasty

We ordered few items, but the highlight for me is pan fried dumpling.
The skin is crispy while the filling is juicy.
The fried rice also good.
💰$10 for pan fried dumpling.

Best item of the night. Ended the meal off with a classic dessert served in Chinese restaurants - crispy red bean pancake. Served hot and fresh, this red bean pancake was thin and crisp. It had a good crunch and chew at the same time, especially because of the mochi layer in between the crust and the red bean. The paste was also of a pleasant sweetness. Admittedly a bit on the pricier side considering how the other dishes are priced lower than this pancake. Nonetheless, it is still really worth a try if you love red bean!

Juicy mixed seafood & pork fried dumplings. A tad bit on the oilier side, but nothing too excessive if you’re sharing this plate of 10 dumplings. Happy to have found this place serving decent authentic Chinese fare.

I liked how the Xiao long bao here has thin wrappings and generous fillings of meat. It is also if a decent larger than average size. However, it really does fall short in terms of flavour of the soup. The soup was a tad bland, nothing impressive.

Mala noodles here had a good amount of spice! But still not too much on the spicy side. Loved how the noodles were really tangy, bouncing with every chew! Generous amount of meat sauce in this bowl as well. A good complement with the other dishes!
