Jade @ Fullerton Hotel Part 1


It was a beautiful Sunday morning, where myself, Cuicui, Sixian, Tze Ching, Stanley and Hin Siong checked ourselves in at Jade Restaurant in Fullerton Hotel for a dining experience of dim sum buffet. I forgot what kind of deal or promotions we had, but we were so game on the brunch!


We could basically order anything we wanted from the menu. We kicked off with a sweet dish of oven-baked egg tart. I would say this wasn't a particularly impressive dish to start with. It was okay-ish but pretty run-of-the-mill eggtart.


This is deep-fried cheese dumpling. It has a crunchy outer layer, with a sweet bun which encapsulates warm, slightly molten cheese. It is not often that i come across such an intriguing dish. Definitely one of the more memorable dishes of the day, plus they look like Russian dolls!


This is such a beautiful presentation of 'Pan-fried minced pork and chives guo tie dumpling'. Aside from its beauty, it is tasty and cooked to perfection. You have to try it yourself!


Wah...such a sinful basket of steamed abalone siew mai. I don't really fancy siew mais, plus the abalone makes it taste somewhat fishy. My friends love it though, so i'm not sure whether i should be raving or pooh-poohing this dish.


Name of this dish is 'Deep Fried Taro Paste wrapped with Truffle and Mushrooms'. Boy, this furry little buddy sure is crunchy! With its wholesome filling of fungus and its unhealthy deep fried crust, the final outcome is a finger licking good dish.


The dish sits on top of our Lazy Susan. Time to fight for the food guys!!


We all had a bowl of soup each. This is Braised Shark's Fin with crab meat, truffle, egg white in chicken broth. This soup was so yummy it titillated our taste buds and made us want more....oooh....ahhh...


Stanley's bowl of Hot & Sour Seafood Soup.


This was another highlight, we ordered several servings of this 'Honey Vinaigrette Sliced Sea Bass'. The fish was fresh, and the sauce coating was absolutely divine.


Ho ho ho.... by this time i was already dying of all the food, and we are not even halfday done yet. I think i skipped this 'Steamed Scallop Dumpling with Minced Vegetables'. I'm going to continue next time, so we'll stop here for the time being.
