Oh My Goodness, So Much Food!




My friend (Friend 1) is sort of a Ladyironchef fan (a famous food blogger). She read LIC's post about Paradise Pavilion and showed us the blog.

My other friend (Friend 2) asked us when we can try the resto. We're all quite easy to talk to especially if it's about food, and agreed to try it that weekend.




 It's at Marina Bay Financial Centre. Quite a long walk from Raffles mrt, even for a walker like me.


 Last order was at 3pm. We got there at 2:30pm. At that point, I already guessed that we would panic and order a lot of food.









 First one that came out, the very yummy char siew pastry. This tasted lovely. With enough meat and enough flakiness in the pastry to compliment each other.
 The sight when you look up. (The chandelier)
 Carrot cake (yummy) and the char siew pastry (yummy, as mentioned above)
 polo bun char siew, aslo quite good
 Trio rice. Olive rice, crab and egg white rice, and fried glutinous rice.
I love rice, and I loved these three, but it's expensive at SGD26.
 Trio rice, taro puff (okay, not spectacular), char siew pastry, polo bun char siew and the carrot cake
 Har gaw (super fresh and crunchy prawns inside! yum) , vegetable crystal dumpling (skippable), trio rice, taro puff, xia long bao (not nice, Din Tai Fung still, because the skin was too thick and the soup was not tasty enough), char siew buns and the carrot cake.
 Near the teapot were the prawn and mango fried roll. Yum, but super oily.

 This was the duck with pineapple. Not nice! Too oily, and the duck tasted like those smoked ones you could buy at Sheng Shiong.  The individual tastes just don't go well with each other.
 Siew-mai skewer. So-so. Tasted like mass produced commercial siew mais.

 Custard buns
The filling was too flowy for me, and too buttery.
For custard buns, it's still Taste Paradise (which belongs to the same owner)  or Rasapura foodcourt at Marina Bay Sands.

Bill was SGD 113 for 3 pax.

Do I recommend this place? Yup. Nice setting, good food.
