Peanut & Black Sesame Glutionous Rice Balls 双喜汤圆 | S$6.30

Most of the frequent diners of DTF should know that they seldom change their mainstay menu apart from seasonal specials, but here are their new indulging treats to welcome the new year.

Coral Seaweed Barley Drink 海燕窝薏米水 | S$3.80 (left) | Iced Sour Plum with Kumquat Juice 桔子酸梅冰| S$4.30 (right)

Both beverages were refreshing but I especially liked the barley drink as it wasn't the standard one we usually get. Instead, the coral seaweed jelly had an added layer of crunch and sweetness to it. The iced juice next to it was a bit sweet and sour which carried a citrusy aftertaste.

Taiwan Shrimp & Pork Oriental Wantons with Spicy Sauce 川味抄手

Quite an appetising wanton considering its robust vinegarish and spicy sauce, do take note that it might come too powerful in terms of the level of sourness and spiciness.

And here are some of the delicacies that I haven't tried before!

Slide Duck in Crispy Spring Onion Pastry 葱香鸭卷 | Red Dates with Glutinous Rice 红枣圆 | Oriental Salad in Vinegar Dressing 小菜

It was my first time trying their red dates appetiser, this was a good rendition though wasn't the best I've tried as the glutinous rice was a tad firm and on the sweet side.

Shredded of smoked duck and spring onions were wrapped in a crispy spring roll skin, simple yet delicious!
