Lei Bistro - Efficient delivery and quality food

Read the intro of this new brand and new line under the Lei Garden group. Booked a table and got in quickly. The reception got a lot of people and long queue. The receptionist was far too busy to deal with the annoyed people who have been waiting desparately for tables.

After we're shown to our table, we were given a think menu displaying a lot of beautiful photos. The variety was impressive, this restaurant serves not just Shanghainese or Beijingnese foods, it also serves Cantonese dim sum and South East Asian foods, e.g. Hai Nan Chicken Rice
As a 1st try, we ordered the famous siu lung bao - the steamed dumplings, dan dan mian - spicy noodle with peanut sauce, dumplings with soup, and barbecue pork.

The xiao lung bao - steamed dupling/bun came with 4 pieces - they were nicely done, very juicy and pretty.
The barbecue pork was tender and juicy. However, it was far too salted
The dan dan mian noodle was quite spicy - the texture was okay.
The dumplings in soup was okay too.
The vegetiable with beans was also done well.

We will come back!
