The signature Teochew duck showcases the kitchen's roasting expertise. The skin crackles when you bite it while the meat inside stays succulent. The Teochew style emphasizes the natural flavors of the duck without heavy sauces.
Tips from diners
This is the signature dish that earned the star. Book in advance and order when making the reservation.
These elevated siu mai feature the addition of premium conpoy (dried scallop), which adds a subtle sweetness to the filling. The scallop gives the dish a refined touch that distinguishes it from standard versions.
Tips from diners
The conpoy adds a unique flavor. These pair perfectly with their signature har gow and rice roll.
Crystal Jade's har gow is a benchmark dish. The wrapper is paper-thin and nearly transparent, while the shrimp is large, fresh, and just cooked through. Multiple reviews cite this as exemplary of what har gow should be.
Tips from diners
These are must-order. The shrimp are sourced fresh daily and the wrapper-to-filling ratio is perfect.
This lo mai gai is a hearty dim sum item. The glutinous rice is perfectly steamed and stays moist, studded with tender chicken, earthy mushroom, and sweet chestnut. The lotus leaf imparts a subtle fragrance.
Tips from diners
This is substantial — one lotus package can satisfy two light eaters. Order it when you've had a few dim sum items.
This represents Teochew's herbal cooking tradition. The ribs are tender enough to fall from the bone, and the broth is infused with warming herbs. Reviewers note the balance of herbal flavors without being overpowering.
Tips from diners
Drink the broth at the end — it's where all the herbal flavors concentrate. Ask for it to be served hot.
