It was awarded as one of the Top 20 restaurants in the Philippines. Crystal Dragon promises to give their diners a premium Cantonese fine dining.
I was one of the invited guests to try their A La Carte Menu using Australian Grass Fed Beef, as we all know grass fed beef is the healthier version of beef. It is rich in Omega 3+ fatty acid and Omega 6+ and it also has fewer calories.
Before we go the main dish, of course, Crystal Dragon sticks to their way of giving their diners a nice and memorable dining experience.
Diners are given welcome tea, it's a combination of Puer and Oolong Tea with Dried Rose Petal and the jelly was also made from Rose Petal.
Appetizer
3 Steamed Cantonese Dim Sum
"They had me on their Dim Sum! "
The taste, the preparation, and the plating were totally amazing and I loved it. You don't need to dip it in the sauce, just by itself, the dim sum is already delicious enough to crave for more."They had me on their Dim Sum! "

The beef was really tender and it goes well with the Barbeque Sauce.
Dessert
Mango Sphere Coconut Mousse
This dessert looks really cute and appetizing.At first, I thought it was an egg yolk, silly of me. It was a bright yellow in color Mango in the middle with some almond jelly, desiccated coconut and coconut cream on it. It was an awesome treat for a dessert lover like me.
The foods are worth the money and visit. This is one of the best Cantonese Restaurant I've visited here in Asia. The meat that they used is a superior quality. I suggest that you visit and try it for yourself.
The service was exceptional. The staff is very accommodating, they know what the food they serve, they give a simple introduction in every dishes before they put it on the table. The staff is well trained.
Chef Bong is very charismatic. A professional chef with a sense of humor. Would love to try his other original and unique dishes.
