My Ramblings...

Crystal Jade was never my preferred choice for dim sum because of its BBQ buns. The dough used wasn't very good, unlike Tung Lok.

Their vinegar pig trotters was nothing great. There was nothing inside, except for skin and ginger. Disappointing though...

My Ramblings...

Old folks will definitely love this place. The ambience of the restaurant is the 70s to 80s Shanghai era and the decor of the place is very posh.

There are also performance of popular chinese sentimental ballads on stage in the evening, i.e. Teresa Teng etc.

In terms of price, it is quite expensive if we did not have the voucher. Understand that they are having a 1 for 1 set promotion at $68++.

Will definitely patronize this place again.
