Min Jiang @ Rochester

Min Jiang @ Rochester

This time the occasion was my father's birthday. And being his 60th one, we decided to celebrate it on a grander scale. So the whole family dined al fresco at Min Jiang, in Rochester Park, an idyllic hideaway near Buona Vista MRT. As the sun sets, the chef presented the famous Peking Duck, roasted to perfection. The skin on the neck was served first, before the rest was wrapped in skin with garlic and spring onion. Dip the neck skin in sugar before trying... its guaranteed to make you go "wow. On the menu was also shark fin in rich creamy soup, sea cucumber with spinach, crispy chicken, and noodles, complete with glutinous rice with vanilla ice cream as the dessert. Simply a great meal!

As the family gathered round the tables, chatting in the glow of the dim table lamps, it was a jovial occasion. Will definitely come back and try the other dishes in the future.
