A La Kitchen

A family favourite - we used to come here for in-house dining before the pandemic but have also ordered take out during this time too. The staff have always been so kind to my family and the food is always so delicious. We usually order the stir fried rice cakes, drunken chicken, fen yu, shrimp, broccoli + egg and their soup dumplings. While soup dumplings aren't meant for take out conditions, they're still really yummy but definitely can't beat eating it fresh out of the steamer. Can't wait to come back for more meals when things open back up!

The Xiao Long Bao (Soup Dumplings) are good. But the rest of the things we ordered are not so good.

food is very good. a single teardrop fell down my cheek as the waitress brought our food out, the aroma was heavenly and I saw vivid memories of time in the motherland where I served for the People's Liberation Army 45th squadron. I have never truly experienced something that brought me closer to my culture and my identity as an asian man, but I am happy to call A La Kitchen not only an experience and a 5 star review, but also a family.

This is one of my go to places for Shanghai food! XLBs are one of my favourite snacks! The dumpling wrap is paper thin and it's filled with flavorful soup and pork!
