Dim summing at Kai Duck

Kai Duck, Ngee Ann City

It's actually a bit more than just dim sum from their menu at Kai Duck. Had a few other stuff a la carte.

Kai Duck, chilled tomatoes passionfruit

Couldn't resist their cold tomato with passionfruit.

Kai Duck, tempura sweet corn 天妇罗炸粟⽶

Tempura sweet corn was...quite forgettable. The corn didn't taste especially good.

Kai Duck, roast pork belly 冰烧三层⾁

Roast pork's fantastic. Crispy on the crackling and the meat was tender.

Kai Duck, char siew with peanuts 美鸭秘制拖地叉烧

Char siew with peanuts was okay. Tender and quite tasty but there are better tasting ones around. Very little peanuts also.

Kai Duck, luffa kurobuta preserved olive leaves

That's luffa and sliced kurobuta stir fried preserved olive leaves. Meat's really tender and good flavour from the sauce, thanks to the preserved olive leaves. Will come back for this again.

Kai Duck, roast duck 烧鸭

Half roasted duck. Tenderer than what I remember of them from the last time.

Kai Duck, fish shaped eggplant salt dumpling

The English name on the menu was something along the lines of fish shaped eggplant salt dumpling. I'm not sure of the intent but it tasted like wu kok/fried taro dumplings to me. It's not fish shaped but eggplant shaped. Skin's fried, a little chewy and there's minced stuff inside.

Kai Duck, deep fried yam with pumpkin

Fried yam and pumpkin. Decent.

Kai Duck, har gow

Har gow's huge and pretty good tasting.

Kai Duck, pan fried teriyaki siew mai

Pan fried teriyaki siew mai. The flavour from the teriyaki glaze was light - which was the way I liked it. Otherwise, competent siew mai. Would get this again if we come back.

Kai Duck, shen jian bao 生煎包

Sheng jian bao (生煎包). No comments. Might not have been memorable.

Kai Duck, beef scrambled eggs 牛松炒滑蛋

Scrambled eggs with minced beef. Not bad.

Kai Duck, braised stuffed tofu with clams 花甲煎酿⾖腐

Tofu stuffed with minced pork. There was a bunch of clams at the bottom of the claypot. Nice. Good for returns.

Kai Duck, stir fried noodles superior soya sauce 豉油皇炒面

Fried noodles with soya sauce was nice. Great texture from the noodles. I'd come back for this too.
