Paradise Dynasty 乐天皇朝 @ Lot One Choa Chu Kang

Family was in town, so had dinner at Paradise Dynasty at Lot One the other night. Rather late dinner, around 8pm. Queued for about 20 minutes. Service was rather slow that night.

hi there

wanton ramen in peppercorn sauce (麻辣紅油抄手)

Dad tried something different that night. The mala wanton ramen. It leaves a slight tingling sensation on the lips but not too strong. Thought it would be very spicy but turned out quite pleasant.

xiao long bao

sheng jian bao

The xiao long bao were quite lovely. Juicy, small plump dumplings. The sheng jian bao tasted similar to xiao long bao but its skin was too thick.

Two dishes that came ultra late, was the fried chicken and the Shanghai fried rice. Thought we were trying Shanghai fried rice for the first time but later realized, we had this before. Can't blame us for not remembering as it was way back in 2013. Read about it here. The fried rice required a major heap of those chili condiment. Too bland on its own.

fried chicken

The fried chicken was done quite well with nice crispy skin and moist piping hot meat. Served with sweet mayo dip.

There was a 30% promotion for Shanghai dishes including xiao long bao, drunken chicken and Shanghai fried rice. However, it turned out that we couldn't enjoy the discount for the xiao long bao. The reason was that the offer was only valid for a basket of 6 pieces only.

Expect to pay about $80 for a family of 5 adults.
