There's a new restaurant in SM Aura! Finally, the much awaited colorful xiao long bao is in BGC! We've been seeing the big tarp covering the place which used to be Ikkoryu Fukuoka (also a favorite) for quite a while that we wondered if it will really open.
Now, the orders:
 |
| Specialty Dynasty Xiao Long Bao (8 flavors) |
- the flavors are very interesting as each has a distinct taste. bibi and I shared this. He ate the odd numbered and I did the even. Hehe. We will switch next time :)
 |
| Here is the guide on how to eat the 8 flavors. We used this as basis for our sharing :) |
 |
| Stir Fried Beef with Kailan |
- the beed is very tender. The kailan is a little bitter but we think that it is its natural taste, like pechay
 |
| Yang Zhou Fried Rice |
- this one can be a stand alone meal with its generous heapings of shrimp and egg
 |
| Chilled Tofu with Century Egg |
- we were supposed to order jellyfish but it was out of stock. we ordered this taho tasting appetizer. The sauce is similar to mapo tofu but not spicy. It could use more century egg unless bibi ate a lot without me noticing :)

 |
| nice set up with complimentary hot tea (the tea remained hot even after we billed out!) |
 |
| kiddie spoon and fork - just the right size and not made of plastic |
There are still a lot of choices in the menu that we want to try. It is on the expensive side, though. But definitely, we will go back!
