I sampled the full course during a lunch tasting and I must say, it was a very satisfying meal. There is a good mix of flavours and the portions are just right without feeling too full or gluttony.

I always enjoy dining at Jiang-Nan Chun and marvel at the attention to details at the restaurant, from the decors to the way the wait staff will quietly shift the placement of my utensils when they observed I am left-handed after the first course.

The standout dishes from this seasonal menu for me were the pumpkin soup and braised abalone.

A braised six-head South African abalone by itself is a luxury ingredient, but what really makes the dish noteworthy is the accompanying side. The conpoy (dried scallop) is wrapped into a slice of winter melon, presented like a whole food by itself. It’s not only beautiful to look at, but the flavours all melt into one.

According to Chef Alan, this is the season where the pumpkin is at its best and sweetest. Hence a pumpkin dish is a given on the seasonal menu. To fully showcase the delicate flavour, the pumpkin is transformed into a fluffy, creamy soup, accompanied by a savoury dumpling stuffed with a whole scallop and shrimp paste.

When it comes to Cantonese cuisine, it is most apt to round up the meal with a bowl of braised beef noodle and the beef short ribs noodle did not disappoint. This is the perfect comfort food whenever I travel to Hong Kong and it is nice to taste the same flavours here in Singapore.
