Jia He: A Culinary Symphony of Chinese Delights

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Jia He, an exquisite Chinese restaurant that has left an indelible mark on my taste buds. From the moment I stepped in, the ambience was warm, inviting, and perfectly complemented by the attentive staff. The culinary journey began with an array of dishes that showcased the restaurant’s commitment to innovation and tradition.

1. 日式樱花姜皮蛋 – Century Egg with Preserved Sakura Ginger and Vintage Vinegar: This dish was a delightful twist on a classic favourite. The century egg’s richness combined with the tangy notes of preserved sakura ginger and vintage vinegar created a harmonious flavour profile that was both sophisticated and comforting.

2. 椰香软壳蟹 – Crisp-fried Soft-Shell Crab with “Gula Melaka”: The soft-shell crab was a crispy revelation, and the infusion of “Gula Melaka” added a unique sweetness that elevated the dish. The combination of textures and flavours made this appetizer a standout, setting the stage for what was to come.

3. 陈皮沙姜生焗鸡 – Baked Chicken with Aromatic Ginger and Tangerine Peel: The baked chicken was a testament to Jia He’s commitment to traditional Chinese cooking techniques. The aromatic blend of ginger and tangerine peel infused the tender chicken with layers of flavour that were both comforting and invigorating.

4. 天籽兰松茸炖花胶汤 – Double-boiled Fish Maw Soup with Matsutake Mushroom and Dendrobium Orchid: The double-boiled fish maw soup was a masterpiece. The rich broth, combined with the earthy aroma of matsutake mushroom and the subtle sweetness of dendrobium orchid, created a soup that was not just a dish but an experience.

5. 斯里兰卡螃蟹 & 火焰黑松露胡椒螃蟹 – Sri Lanka Crab & Flambé Crab with Black Truffle-Pepper Sauce: The Sri Lanka crab was a showstopper, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The delicate balance of spices allowed the natural sweetness of the crab to shine through, making it a must-try for seafood enthusiasts. The flambé crab was a theatrical delight, with flames dancing around the succulent crab. The addition of black truffle-pepper sauce added a luxurious touch, making it a sensory experience from presentation to palate.

6. 鲮鱼球鲜虾水饺煲淋节瓜 – Poached Hairy Gourd with Dace Fish Ball, Fresh Prawn Dumpling, and Conpoy: This dish showcased Jia He’s mastery in crafting dumplings. The poached hairy gourd added a refreshing element to the plump dace fish balls and succulent prawn dumplings, creating a well-balanced and flavorful combination.

7. 招牌海鮮脆河粉 – Signature Crispy Hor Fun with Seafood and Silky Egg Sauce: The signature crispy hor fun was a revelation in texture and taste. The perfectly cooked hor fun, combined with a luscious silky egg sauce, created a dish that was both comforting and indulgent.

8. 椰盅杨枝甘露 – Chilled Mango with Sago and Pomelo in Young Coconut: The chilled mango dessert was a refreshing finale to the feast. The sweetness of mango, the chewiness of sago, and the burst of pomelo in a young coconut shell provided a delightful end to the meal.

9. 椰盅杏仁糊蛋白 – Warm Almond Cream with Egg White in Young Coconut: The warm almond cream was a soothing and comforting dessert, with the addition of egg white adding a velvety texture. Served in a young coconut, it was a delightful blend of flavours and temperatures.

10. 黑芝麻糯米卷 – Homemade Glutinous Rice Rolls with Black Sesame: The homemade glutinous rice rolls were a sweet indulgence. The black sesame filling added a nutty richness to the chewy texture of the rice rolls, making it a satisfying dessert.
