鼎泰丰
DIN TAI FUNG --One of the Top 10 restaurants in the World according to the New York Times..
Sauteed Sweet Shrimps -- crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside..I think they dipped the shrimps in syrup before frying coz when you eat it, there is syrup coming out of the shrimp meat.. yummy and great starter to our meal. Costs 35rmb (245php)
Next up are the ever famous Xiao Long Bao's (soup dumplings that come with a variety of fillings) of Din Tai Fung.. The one on the left is pork and shrimp xiaolongbao..It comes with a bowl of soup and one order=around 50rmb (350php). Its not cheap, I know, but it is worth every penny =)
This one on the right is filled with pork and hairy crab roe..It is really tasty and a bit more expensive than the first xiaolongbao..It is around 65rmb (455php).
I have tried the other fillings before but i didn't get the chance to take pictures but I assure you, everything is GOOD =)
Lastly, the Hairy Crab with Silken Tofu. Could it get any better than this?? I thought the dumplings were awesome..but wow, It gets better and better. This goes great with plain rice.. Sums up a really great lunch. Gonna get high blood from all the fat..but I still give this restaurant a 10/10!=)
Every meal isn't complete with dessert.. so for the grand finale...we went to Fauchon (A french Bakeshop) , also located in the same mall for a mini chocolate cake. Oh man, this cake need not be chewed, it simply melts in your mouth! You can see that the chocolate ganache was perfectly done (notice how shiny and smooth it is??). It had a praline crust topped with layers of dark chocolate mousse and dark chocolate cake. 1cake=45rmb(315php) expensive, but definitely a must try when you visit Beijing. =)
Drool. I just left Beijing this morning and now...I MISS THE FOOD ALREADY!!!怎么办？！
