Visit to Peach Blossom at Marina Mandarin Hotel

This is a review of a visit to the Peach Blossom restaurant to try out their dim sum Al carte buffet.

It is only available on the weekend afternoon from 12 noon to 3pm. If you are planning to go, it would be better to give a call a day before the visit to book a table as it is quite occupied.
The menu if i recall had about 30 plus items and there is a selection of deserts although it is limited to one order per person.

The below picture is the table layout.
The below is the stand for the teapot, quite interesting to me as first time see the teapot with a warmer below.
The following pictures are some of the fotos for the dim sum items we ordered. There were more items but was too busy eating and forgot to take foto.

The first item is the har gao or steamed prawn dumpling. It was quite ok. The filling was sufficient and the prawns is fresh and juicy.
The next item is the char siew chee chong fun. The texture was very smooth and went well with the filling.
The below is one of the unique fried items but have forgotten what it is.
The following two pictures are a snap shot of the various items that we had that day.

After which we decided to order the sweets to try out and the below are the fotos.


In general, the food was excellent although the service was a bit slow partly due to the large crowd of people in the restaurant at the time.
It is a place worth visiting again :)

Looks good. How is the food serving? 2 or 3 dim sum per serving or is it determined by the number of people at the same table?

It is 2 to 4 items per order.
However when you are placing the order, they will always ask you whether want one item for each person and they will enter the orders accordingly :)

I went to the restaurant. Yes we can specify the number for each item. This is good. Thanks for your wonderful entry on this :)
