I'm a big fan of the paradise group because they cater to different concepts ranging from Chinese cuisine to western cuisine to tea-time favorites as well as seafood lovers. Canton Paradise, opened their latest outlet @
The Star Vista offers Cantonese treat and other traditional favorites like wanton noodles, congee, rice dishes and roast meat.
The Menu
The queue wasn't that bad during the weekday but however the wait can be quite torturing on a busy weekend, especially Sunday. Services were indeed lacking at this outlet, many of the staffs avoided eye contact with customers who would like to place an order and only continuously topping up tea and acting busy. We managed to make our order after 15 minutes of waiting.
The Plain Congee @ $1.80++ (Recommended)
I usually don't favor congee but this plain congee is really a surprised. Milky and with the crispy fried dough combination, this big bowl of Congee can be rather filling.
Crisp-Fried Tofu with Salt and Pepper @ $5.80++
Healthy selection but not as tasty. There are no surprises with the use of Tofu. Ordinary, whereas the Carrot Cake (Below) is really delicious, thou oily and fattening. The Carrot cake are dish into small cube, evenly fried and mixed with shrimp. Small in portion and not expensive for a appetizer.
Fried Carrot Cake in XO Sauce @ $6.80++ (Recommended)
Crispy BBQ Honey Pork Bun (3pcs) @ $4.80++
Good for sharing with friends. BBQ honey pork is well cooked and stuffed in the crispy bun, and taste just as good with it. However this is rather oily as well.
Crisp-fried Fish Skin tossed with salt and pepper @ $6.80++ (Recommended)
Ordered this to accompany with the plain congee. Never go wrong with the crispy fried fish skin! Delicious and recommended.
Signature Canton Jumbo Prawn Wanton Noodle Soup @ $7.80
Group Executive Congee/Noodle Chef Yau Chi Kong is responsible for the making of both delicious Congee and Noodle for Canton Paradise. I would prefer the congee than the noodle soup probably because the soup's too plain and lacking in taste. Nothing really special about the noodle as well as the Jumbo Prawn (it isn't really big afterall)
Crispy Prawn and Mango Salad Fritters (3pcs) @ $5.20++ (Recommended)
So i think you probably had guessed i'm a deep fried person? Well nothing could really goes wrong with food being deep fried i guess unless it turn charred. Prawn and Mango salad fritters is the number one favorite dim-sum "must-order" here right?
Steamed Scallop and Scrambled egg white dumpling @ $4.80++
Scallop was nowhere to see (probably too insignificant), Scrambled egg were tasteless, Dumpling skin's too thick. Not Recommended!
Steamed Cheong-Fun with Honey BBQ Pork Filling @ $4.50++
Last dish of the day and very generous with the filling for this popular dim sum "Must-order" dish. Sauces are not as salty and worth the try for if you do like to eat "Chee-Cheong-Fun".
