Crystal Jade in BGC has been the to go place for authentic Chinese Cuisine in BGC. Since it is the new year, the restaurant opted to bring in other Chinese dishes made popular by their other brand CRYSTAL JADE Shanghai delights in Greenhills. This made the menu of Crystal Jade BGC bigger and better. More choices for us foodies.
You could start off with some fruit shakes to cool off.
Began the meal with some Raddish Puffs.Perfectly fried. No excess oil and the pastry tasted fresh.
Of course, the XIAO LONG BAO was also served. If you aren't familiar with it, I suggest you go out and try it. Basically, there is a soupy liquid inside the wrapper along with a meat dumpling depending on the flavor. It could be pork, crabs, and a lot more. Remember to eat it carefully as it would be peeping hot.
The beef balls were a revelations. Granted that it didn't look appetizing, one bite and I got hooked. It was smooth and the flavor was present. As such, I wasn't surprised that this dish was a best seller.
To the delight of many noodle dish fans, CRYSTAL JADE now serves SOUP NOODLE with DRIED SHRIMP and Peanut in Spicy Sauce. Commonly known as TAN TAN MIAN. Surprisingly, the sauce wasn't as spicy as one would believe it was. The peanut flavor blended well with the soup. The noodles were firmed and the meat delicious. One bowl is actually big enough for 2-3 persons to share.
One can't get enough of the SWEET and SOUR PORK. The pork was perfectly deep fried and the sauce wasn't overpowering. I liked it.
As with any Chinese Meal, the rice was served towards the end. Properly done and not too oily.
To end the meal, we had the Almond Jelly with Lychee. It wasn't too sweet as such I enjoyed it. Very refreshing.

Crystal Jade BGC is welcoming the New Year with a lot of additional items in its menu. I am pleasantly surprised that they could carry a lot and yet still serve quality and affordable Chinese Dishes in the BGC area. Cheers.
