WG Regular Lunch

Once in a while, we would stop by Din Tai Fung at the Gardens Mall for lunch. My first choice of dish would be the Beef Noodle soup. The last time I was here, my friend and I shared a plate of shrimp fried rice and a basket of 6 Xiao Long Bao. This time, I ordered a basket of 10 Xiao Long Bao and gave 3 to my friend who ordered a bowl of plain white rice and Ginseng Chicken Soup.

Total price for 2 pax is MYR 51.75 nett.

They managed to fit all their dishes on 1 sheet of paper with 2 pages. Page 1 - please click on the above image to view the dishes.

Sushi Zanmai on the other hand is a Japanese conveyor belt chain restaurant that we visit for lunch frequently. This time I decided to try a dish that I have never tried before - Ebidon (small portion) at MYR 13.80 nett. Ebi means prawn and don means rice bowl. The 3 tempura prawns taste ok and the egg has a semi runny yolk so I mix the yolk into the hot rice which has quality shoyu splashed on it. Not too bad so I may order this dish again but I only ate half the rice and gave the other half to my friend.

While waiting for the hot meals to be served, I took a pink plate from the conveyor belt - California maki at MYR 4.80 nett per plate for 2 maki.

Total bill for 4 pax is MYR 57.20 nett.

    Not a fan of xiao long pao as the strong ginger soup inside puts me off. Been quite a long time since we last went Japanese. Maybe we should go this weekend.

      These are very dainty refined xiao long bao with subtle taste so no strong ginger soup inside.

      I didn't like the famous xlb I ate in Shanghai but I like dtf xlb so maybe you just have not reached the xlb that you like yet.

    Din Tai Fung seems to have gotten expensive. I haven't been there many years already since the kids always want to go for Japanese. Have good memories of their pork chop fried rice.

      Yeah! But really I haven't been there often at all. And always order the same thing so no idea whether I'd like the other items!
