We were drawn to the new dishes on the menu at Din Tai Fung Chinatown Point and decided to dine in for dinner on December 28. The welcoming and approachable staff made us feel right at home. The menu offers healthier choices eg. vegetarian dumplings and other vegan dishes. We were happy to note that the self ordering option also allows the selection of special dietary requests such as no meat broth, no MSG, and no or less salt. A must-try dish is the Shrimp Paste chicken wings. We enjoyed them so much that we ordered an additional plate of six! Other standout dishes included the deep-fried tofu (chef's recommended dish) , gourd shrimp xiao long bao, and spinach with beancurd, each offering a uniquely delightful flavor. We were particularly impressed with the service from Cui Ping, who was incredibly attentive. She ensured our glasses were topped up with warm water when needed without us having to request. Her thoughtful gesture enhanced our dining experience. The dishes were appetizing, and with Din Tai Fung offering a 15% discount for a minimum spend of $83 via Grab Payment, the value was exceptional. Lastly, thumbs up for the excellent service and food quality at the newly opened Chinatown Branch. We’ll definitely return to try other dishes on the menu.
