Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao

I don’t know any Pinoy who doesn’t love Chinese food. Do you? There’s something about how enticed we Pinoys are when it comes to Chinese culture particularly their food. I and the husband are one of the few who would frequent Chinese restaurants and for one date night, we chose Crystal Jade.

: are you ready?

Good thing we were early, there were no lines but the tables inside were all taken. If you plan on visiting this on a weekend for lunch or dinner, I suggest go there early unless you don’t mind waiting in line.

: spot the recognitions & awards

You know you’ve come to a good restaurant if it’s been recognized & awarded numerous times not only in it’s home town but all over Asia.

: Xiao Long Bao

: selections

: the set up

Spotted: stains on the plate & bowl. Calling the manager of Crystal Jade, it would be nice if you’d update your utensils & plates. It’s so not enticing seeing water marks or stains. Don’t use it na, but on the good side I had it changed & the waiter obliged.
