If it’s been a while since you visited Paradise Dynasty, now is a good time. Taste their signature XLBs, La Mian, as well as eight cuisines of China all under one roof: Anhui, Cantonese, Fujian, Hunan, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan and Zhejiang.
Specialty Dynasty Xiao Long Bao 特色皇朝小笼包(八色) ($15.80 for 8 pieces)
These multi-flavoured pork-filled dumplings need little-introduction. As Paradise Dynasty’s most iconic dish, they are coloured using natural ingredients.
Each 25g xiao long bao is a hallmark of precision, pleated with exactly 18 folds.
You will taste 8 flavours in one basket, the signature original, ginseng, foie gras, black truffle, cheese, crab roe, garlic and Szechuan.
To appreciate each flavour, slurp your way from the delicate original up to the bold Szechuan, in that sequence.

Drunken Chicken 李白醉鸡 ($9.80)
This traditional appetiser favourite is made from deboned chicken steamed with scallions, ginger and salt.
What makes the chicken “drunk” is the marinade made from a blend of yellow wine and soy sauce, flavoured with ginger, pepper, and spring oil.
That aromatic liquid seeps into the meat, making its texture moist and gelatinous, and its taste clean and refreshing.

Spinach and Vermicelli tossed with Vinaigrette 春雨拌绿蔬 ($5.00)
Another must-try appetiser, this dish combines chilled baby spinach with Chinese rice noodles, thin strips of carrots and onion.
The tart dressing is a vinaigrette-style blend of light soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, sugar, and salt.

Double-Boiled Chicken Soup 清炖甘榜鸡汤 ($11.50)
A classic soup that’s light and clean-tasting, it has that subtle sweet savoury herbal flavour.
Nourishing mix of traditional Chinese herbs create that broth profile, boiling bone-in chickens for hours.
Another comforting soup to choose would be the Double-boiled Pork Rib with Cabbage Soup.

Crispy Pork Chop 香酥猪扒 ($9.80)
A hit amongst kids and adults alike, this well-loved pork dish is marinated in a flavourful mix of soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, five spice powder, scallion, ginger and garlic.
The infused meat is then battered and fried ‘til the edges are crispy while inside the meat stays moist. Served sliced for your convenience.

La Mian in Hot and Sour Soup 酸辣海鲜汤拉面 ($9.50)
La Mian or hand-pulled noodles are a comforting staple in this restaurant. They are expertly prepared, shaped into fine and silky threads, and served with a classic soup base or dry.
Some of the popular choices here include La Mian with Sliced Kurobuta Pork in Signature Pork Bone Soup, La Mian with Double-boiled Chicken Soup, and La Mian with Pork Dumpling in Hot Chilli Vinaigrette.
If you love that bit of spiciness and tanginess, with substantial portion, then go for the La Mian in Hot and Sour Soup.
Chockful of ingredients, this thick soup features Chinese mushrooms, thinly sliced soft bean curd, shredded bamboo shoots, ginger, garlic, beaten egg, light soya sauce and sesame oil. A splash of black vinegar is added for that sour element.
