Paradise Pavilion at Marina Bay Financial Centre

Any dim sum lovers here?

My hand goes right up. Out of all types of Chinese cuisine, my favourite has to be dim sum. They're great for sharing and are so yummy.

I attended the media tasting for Paradise Pavilion some time ago and here are some of the fare that I tried:

The words "Bo Luo" actually means "pineapple", but most bo luo bao doesn't come with pineapples. These ones do though! Pineapples, bacon and peking duck fills the fluffy and lightly-salted buns.

What the restaurant is really known for is its super authentic Peking Duck. This is also one of the best that I've tried since the last time I ate the dish in Beijing. Eat it while it's hot individually or by wrapping it and feel the duck skin literally melt in your mouth while the fragrance fill the palate.

The siew mai skewers are also something that I found interesting at the restaurant. Cantonese food with Japanese styled cooking.

Desserts wise, the crispy man tou goes very well with the vanilla ice-cream. Think of it as a "Chinese" version of the brownie with ice-cream - the brownie is replaced with the man tou.
