Min Jiang (Dempsey)

The Crispy Silver Hill Duck served with Homemade Crepes ($68.00 / Half) was the highlight of the meal. Not really knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised by how succulent the meat was. Prepared with London duck sourced from Ireland's famed Silver Hill Farm, the dish resembles a large duck confit in my opinion. Marinated then deep-fried to a crisp, before being shredded like floss to be wrapped in the crepes and the accompanying condiments; the protein was very flavourful. Although you don’t get the glistening duck skin, you do get bits of crunch from the well-fried skin and it proved to be an interesting change from the usual Beijing Duck - a lighter alternative yet just as satisfying and substantial.

My go-to order at every dim sum restaurant, their Deep-fried Beancurd Skin Roll with Prawn ($6.80/ 3 pieces) delivered a superbly crisp-flakey exterior and the interior was wonderfully succulent. Served piping hot, the prawn filling was also nicely seasoned and sweet.

A nice spot for some dim sum brunch with the girls, Min Jiang at Dempsey was real fancy.

Complete with golden flakes, the Steamed Chicken with ‘Nai Bai’ and Dried Scallop Dumpling ($9.80/ 3 pieces) was savoury, plump, and tender. The vibrant jade-coloured skin was a tad thick and it got cold pretty quickly but the flavours were on point.

The Deep-fried ‘Golden Pear’ Curry Chicken with Mushrooms ($8.80/ 3 pieces) was fried to golden perfection. I liked that the crunchy batter wasn’t too thick and it didn’t feel greasy at all. The spice level was mild and it was overall pretty fragrant. Love the mini chocolate balls too as they added some crunchy decadence.
