Taystar @@@ 3/5

Well, this is the newly opened Din Tai Fung outlet in Gandaria City. It has a “Noodle Bar” at the end which hints that this is not a full-service Din Tai Fung. Indeed, there were limited number of menus and some of the dishes were unavailable here.

Other usual suspects, such as Hot and Sour Soup, Crab Meat and Chicken Xiao Long Bao, Mayo Prawn, Fried Rice were all present. Generally speaking, seasoning was moderate and recipes were true to the Din Tai Fung flavor. One caveat was the slow and unprofessional service. We were served with our Xia Long Bao at the very end of our meal (just like a dessert). We also witnessed a Japanese couple – who were sitting right next to us – grumping about the bad service.
