I must say, the gift box for the rice dumplings was rather nice. Elegant and stylish in lovely green. Quite sturdy too!

Here's a short 'unboxing' video:
Lovely to see a short message from team Grand Shanghai. Happy 端午节 to you too!

| nicely sealed |
Am impressed that each of the rice dumplings were individually packed and nicely sealed. Didn't eat it immediately, and had it a few days later. Simply steamed for a few minutes will do.

Below are the available flavours from Grand Shanghai Restaurant:
- Grand Shanghai Rice Dumpling (⼤上海特⾊裹蒸粽)
- Shanghainese Braised Pork Belly (东坡⾁咸蛋莲⼦粽)

- Shanghainese Sweetened Eight Treasure Rice Dumpling (上海⼋宝⾖沙粽)
The Grand Shanghai Rice Dumpling is the largest, almost squarish in shaped and filled with conpoy, homecured salted pork, chicken, chinese mushroom, egg yolk, lotus seed and green bean. Retails at $28.80++ each.
The rest of the flavours are priced at $9.80++ each. Let's try one, shall we? Truth be told, I've never tried a Shanghainese rice dumpling, myself. This was the first!

| hello, good looking~ |
Chose the Brown Glutinous Rice Dumpling to taste. Again, my first time having a brown glutinous rice dumpling! So many firsts in this tasting!

The rice was soft and if you eat the rice alone, it actually tasted mildly sweet. There's adequate chunks of meat in there, and surprisingly, not too overly marinated.

As the ingredients may be hiding somewhere in a corner here and there, I liked to mix them around to balance out the flavours. Chestnuts were sweet. Pork belly was kind of a larger chunk that's fork tender. Loved that the fats are all intact. It was an awesome feeling for that sensation when you popped one into your mouth!

| hitting the jackpot with salted egg yolk |
Because it was thoroughly enjoyable, I had reached towards the end of the meal, with only these left....
