Din Tai Fung @ Tampines Mall

Yesterday I posted a photo of the huat kueh, that was part of the food we ate last Friday at Din Tai Fung at Tampines Mall.

The 'xiao cai', this is the combi of seaweed, tau kuah, tang hoon, tau geh etc mix. We always love this dish. We actually have this when we come here.

When we asked for another and it came looking smaller, we jokingly said that to the lady. She was quick to rebutt us! It's all weighted and it's the same. Hmm ok. She was not in a particulary good mood. LOL.



Another appetizer dish is the salted vegetable dish. It's a bit salty but goes well with other things that we had.



We also had the 'suan la tang'. I like it the way it is, but sis and aunt would prefer it to be more 'suan', add more vinegar if you like it sourish.



This is red vinegar dumpling. Try it if you come here, this is yummy!



For our carbo stuff, we had the prawn fried rice.



And also the pork chop fried rice.



While in the pork chop mood, sis and momo shared this pork chop noodle soup.



Since we had more people, we could order 20 xiao long bao! (yes, madness. haha...) But we were really hungry!



If you like prawn dumpling, this one is actually quite quite good! The soup's not salty, so eating this with the kiam chai dish above goes well.



When we ordered, the waitress asked if we had Citibank card, we did and this yam dumpling came free. Imainge 'or nee' in dumplings. ;-)



It was a good lunch after being awake since early early morning and we did not have any breakfast.

Din Tai Fung @ Raffles City

A very warm welcome to those who went to the Food blogging discussion at the Arts House today. It was great seeing you all there.

If you wish, you can join me in my online 'food diary' daily. :-)

After the talk, sis and I went over to Raffles City to meet a 'workaholic' friend for dinner. This guy with a PhD in economics goes in to work everyday! Errr....

Anyway, wanted something Chinese for dinner, we ended up at Din Tai Fung. Hey, if you go early, there's no queue! Wait was only 2 minute for them to set up the table.




We always like this appetizer dish. It's some vegetarian thingy, but it smells so good and taste yummy too. (I think we like the smell of sesame oil haha...)



Zha Jiang Mian. No, not the korean ones though.



Sweet and Sour Soup. (Suan La Tang)
If you want it sour, I think you got to add more of your own vinegar in.



Dumplings in Red Vinegar and Chilli. We like this.



Dou Miao and Prawns as the Veg dish. There's very few veg this in this place.



What is Din Tai Fung famous for? Xiao Long Bao.
Our dear friend had the soup squirted on his shirt while trying to eat it.
So, we had to like tell him the proper way of eating it. :-)



Hope you all had a good weekend!
