I'm not exactly sure when Grand Pavilion opened its doors at Esplanade but what I know is they have both the main dining area and a cafe to cater to different crowds.
It was a relatively quiet dinner with few tables occupied.
Appetizers worth a mention - I loved these XO beancurd bits!
Deep Fried Sesame Ball Egg Yolk ($5.40, 3 pcs)
Crispy fried sesame fritters with a generous dollop of savoury egg yolk filling, it was a gratifying dish for either a starter or dessert.
Crackers to nibble!
Whole Peking Duck ($58)
I love our local peking duck because it gets served both ways - one price, two dishes! I am usually not a fan of the egg wraps but they did it really nicely, crispy with a dollop of sweet sauce and sides of spring onions too.
We had them chopped up, succulent meat with a mild gameyness. Otherwise, really good with rice.
Coffee Pork Ribs ($31.80)
Sticky and sweet pork ribs infused with coffee, a finger licking good combination and it made it seem like a wedding dinner we were attending.
Eefu Noodle with Mushrooms ($28.80)
This was perhaps the few times that my eefu noodles came with crabmeat and mushrooms, and the generosity of the chef made this such a value for money noodle dish!
Braised Beancurd with Mushrooms ($22.80)
Eggyolk Prawns ($43.80)
I always cave in to these cholesterol rich lovelies, the salted egg yolk batter made this so delicious! Best eaten hot and whole.
