The once frenzied pace at the mall is replaced by a more tranquil vibe, but inside Paradise Dynasty, tables were filled just like any other ordinary day. Start your feast with their crisp and refreshing Lettuce Rolls with Homemade Sesame Sauce (P 288)...

...and Crispy Vegetable Spring Rolls (P 138), a tasty duo of starters offering both textural contrasts and fresh flavors. 

No meal is complete without one of Paradise Dynasty's signature dumplings, and the Pork Dumpling with Hot Chili Vinaigrette (P 168) is another one of my personal favorites. Soft, chewy and savory dumplings draped in a mildly spicy chili vinaigrette, the bold flavors drape the palate with every bite. 

Pair your dumplings with with a comforting bowl of noodles, like the La Mian with Sliced Pork (P 300) in a light yet milky pork bone broth simmered for hours. The flavors are both rich and clean, capped by the fresh vegetables to complete the flavors.

If you prefer your dumplings in a hearty broth, the Vegetable & Pork Wonton Soup (P 188) should do the trick.

Then, the savory mains of Paradise Dynasty tempt you once more, like the Salted Egg Prawn (P 588) with plump and succulent prawns covered in a flavorful salted egg batter and deep-fried to a light crispness delivering a briny sweetness followed by the deep notes of the salted egg...
