我一向好鍾意去翡翠拉麵小籠包, 不過平時去TST海港城店, 今晚第一次去IFC店.今晚與朋友2人叫了: 紅油炒手 擔擔麵 (偏重花生醬味, 奇怪在於不明白他們每間店每次吃的水準不一樣, 有時偏重花生醬味, 有時側偏重醋味) 明燒宮保蝦球 (好味, 蝦夠脆及大隻) 酒釀丸子 (需要馬上改善, 差, 過酸) 薑茶湯圓 (需要馬上改善, 薑茶好, 不太甜而且薑味好夠, 不過若不改善湯圓品質, 建議請把其改名為芝麻糯米(磁)比較貼切, 因為其粉皮實在太厚, 絕可媲美糯米(磁).

友人約了在香港站等,要醫肚就到了翡翠吃小籠包。點了小籠包、火腿烤雙方、魚羹、...最特到是棗泥鍋餅!起初是要豆沙鍋餅,侍應問要豆沙還是棗泥鍋餅呢?他表示棗泥鍋餅較特別,真是一試傾情,多謝這位員工。大家如到這裏,一定要吃這個,好味到不得了。

Never been disappointed there - Lovely Siu Long Bao - and I like their noodles. Staff always a bit rushed - but it comes with the popularity of the place. Recommended for a quick, no fuss meal.

星期天本來是跟朋友想到IFC的國金軒吃午餐, 但因為他起床太晚, 我們下午三時才到達IFC, 國金軒卻有落場時間, 所以就只好到翡翠吃飯.還好等了約15分鐘, 我們便有位置. 中環寸土寸金, 所以樓面有點迫狹,還好我們2人都算是窈窕的, 否則大肥佬來一定坐立難安. 我們點了紅油抄手、小籠包、五香牛腱麵及海哲, 味道都不錯, 價錢在IFC來說算是不貴了, 服務就有點馬虎, 相信是客人太多, 做到樓面有點太累所致! 下次若沒更好選擇, 還是可以再來一吃的.

21.2.2011今日是第一次見阿鬼的日子, 由於他是外國人, 所以揀了吃中式食物. 在IFC裡面, 如果要吃中菜都好貴, 唯獨是翡翠拉麵最平. 那日是平日, 晚上七時, 已有好多人等位了. 幸好我們只等了十五分鐘.餐廳內的地方比較狹窄, 如果是大肥佬一定很難走動哩.我們order了: 四川酸辣湯: 材料好足夠, 我們都覺得辣味和酸味都很平均, 起初以為這個盅很細, 但其實我們兩個人, 每人都可以分到兩碗多的酸辣湯. 小籠包: 每一隻都是熱騰騰的, 皮好薄, 而且每隻小籠包裡面都有好多汁, 裡面的豬肉有鮮甜味. 好正. 乾扁四季豆: 有很多肉碎+蔥, 不過都幾咸, 四季豆反而不太多. 唉, 其實我們order這碟四季豆是因為想吃一點蔬菜類, 不過這碟餸竟然不太多四季豆, 令我們有點失望. 炒牛柳: 用了很多洋蔥來炒. 阿鬼很喜歡吃這碟. 牛柳不錯, 好腍, 可是比較咸. 鱔糊炒拉面: 雖然不太咸, 但很油膩. 拉面好淋, 鱔很彈牙, 吃完好full.我們吃剩了少許拉面和牛柳, 哇, 十分飽哩. 阿鬼說這一餐好好味. 我也吃得很開心, 不過兩個人吃了$276 就好似貴了一點了.

安排坐一張大圓枱,與另外2枱客搭枱,不過都沒所謂的,否則要等很久!
叫了五香牛肉麵($4X)、雪菜肉絲麵($38)和一客小籠包($4X)。

五香牛肉給的是牛展,鮮紅色的,開頭還以為是生牛肉,
吃下去味道甜甜的,而且肉質鬆化酥軟,不粗糙不會卡牙縫,
但並不是我期待的「五香」,只覺得甜和鹵水,並沒有令人回味的香…

配的湯是應該是淡黃色的雞湯底,因為完全喝不到任何牛肉味,
失望…坦白說句,連康師傅杯麵也比不上…


男友的雪菜肉絲麵就一般,不過不失…

小籠包不錯,咬下去有暖暖的湯汁流出來,皮也不易夾爛!

**但這裡的服務態度真的太差了!
話說男友看到他位上的那位「墊枱紙」爛的,
叫一個戴黑框眼鏡的待應:麻煩你換一換,
那人走過來,快速的扯走爛紙,快速的鋪上新紙,再大大力丟下碗和碟,
大力到聽到碗碟發出好大的「哼」一聲!
我和男友都傻眼了…

之後由於我們是和其他兩枱客,共坐一張十人大枱,
之後有捧野阿姐來放下一碟上海粗炒,
無人認領,她說是1C的,(但他們之前已來了一碟粗炒,應該是來多了)
那阿姐就黑面,然後再把粗炒推入d張枱,一副不關事的樣子就走了…
最後要叫到經理來查單,原來是廚房部出錯炒多了,
不過那枱客很好人的不介意要多一碟!

整體來說,味道一般,價錢一般(在IFC來說是最平),服務態度差,如沒必要,以後都不會再來…

No wine by the glass, but they sell a split bottle for HKD88 that is good and very reasonable. The atmosphere is bright and a bit noisy and tables are close, but I happen to like that. This could easily be our go to joint. The total bill was HKD680, and we had plenty to bring home, so very reasonable.

不嬲覺得呢一間翡翠拉麵小籠包的餸、服務都非常差,環境窄,食客坐得好唔舒服。有年中三係銅鑼灣時代廣場分店食咗一碗清水狀的勁麻無辣牛肉麵,立即吐出來,咁大個人僅僅一次對點了的食物原封不動。昨晚又一次引證呢個翡翠拉麵小籠包的低水平質數。有個律師朋友生日,話要去呢間食小籠包,心想勸佢去和歌山食,但人家生日唯有就人。去到見倒個朋友還在等位,佢話門口待應串,不採人,只顧傾電話。門口有十個人等位佢重煲電話粥認真利害。之後入去點菜,叫個侍仔寫三杯雞,佢話冇,之後用手指响餐牌上指來指去,叫你跟佢的推介。他應該無心,但指來指去有欠尊重,廳餐高層不教導員工點待客的?當然一樣都冇聽他推介,最後決定要了擔擔麵、小籠包和葱油餅小籠包:勉強來講是全晚最好食的點心,一共四個,夾起不怕穿,皆因層皮厚過生煎包。湯不過不失但絕不是極品,頂多是翠園級數葱油餅認真差,一夾就散,粉厚個擦膠,炸得又唔香口重要唔脆,葱又小又冇葱味,一啲都唔熱擔擔麵全場最難食可能非它莫屬,一點都不熱,冇花生,又唔鹹,冇醬、湯底更淡過水,油和水分開十足一碗麻油紅色暖水浸冇味拉麵,咁大個人冇食過咁差的擔擔麵。食過小南國的擔擔麵的外國人一定覺得翡翠呢碗絕不

小籠包:
勉強來講是全晚最好食的點心,一共四個,夾起不怕穿,皆因層皮厚過生煎包。湯不過不失但絕不是極品,頂多是翠園級數
葱油餅
認真差,一夾就散,粉厚個擦膠,炸得又唔香口重要唔脆,葱又小又冇葱味,一啲都唔熱
擔擔麵
全場最難食可能非它莫屬,一點都不熱,冇花生,又唔鹹,冇醬、湯底更淡過水,油和水分開十足一碗麻油紅色暖水浸冇味拉麵,咁大個人冇食過咁差的擔擔麵。食過小南國的擔擔麵的外國人一定覺得翡翠呢碗絕不是同一道菜。

服務方面更驚人:
1. 侍應隨地大聲咳向食客
2. 個部長幫隔離枱一對後生情侶埋單時粗聲粗氣,好似去咗傭國
3. 食食吓隔離抹枱的侍應突然將座枱茶牌啪在我們的枱上,見咁無禮唯有更大聲放回原處,嚇到個侍急急手抺原走,莫非從來只有佢咁待客,未試過比人咁對待?

翡翠拉麵小籠包間間都好難食,連其他地踎上海食館都比不上,服務又惡劣,不知為何港人仍然大排長龍入內。唯一好處係食完不須廿分鐘。相信再去翡翠拉麵小籠包的機會很低。

本來約左朋友 8:30 係荃灣食飯, 但實在太肚餓, 而且太太好想再回味一次太古城年代去翡翠既味道, 所以趁仲有時間就拿拿臨去一轉啦.6:45 分去到已經要排隊, 不過我地只係搭枱, 咁樣就即刻有位了. 同枱有 4 枱客, 一共 10 人, 冇計啦, 香港地係咁架啦. 但座位上既茶係一早沖定等你, 涼晒啦...叫左 3 樣野, 水煮牛肉拉麵, 上海雲吞拉麵同埋花素蒸餃.平心而論, 拉麵的確唔錯, 十分好咬口, 彈牙. 水煮牛肉味濃, 辛辣適中, 不且唔係太油膩. 賣 46 蚊, 中環黎講叫 ok.花素蒸餃 24 蚊得 3 隻, 咪同北京樓一樣價 ?? 皮厚而且唔 ok. 餡料好似有陣草青味, 但唔係太嚴重. 味道尚算可以, 但賣到 8 蚊隻, 唔值 lor...上海雲吞... 可以話係食過最差既一次, 單係上海雲吞已經可以 black list 依間翡翠. 雲吞連麵上枱, 冇一隻個皮係完整既, 全部穿晒. 明顯係淥定一堆, 然後放埋一齊, 用時翻淥, 咁樣用手指 / 筷子整過, 唔爛就出奇啦. 食落個皮漿糊咁, 唔係一塊架, 係一pat 架... 咁樣既雲吞,

叫左 3 樣野, 水煮牛肉拉麵, 上海雲吞拉麵同埋花素蒸餃.

平心而論, 拉麵的確唔錯, 十分好咬口, 彈牙. 水煮牛肉味濃, 辛辣適中, 不且唔係太油膩. 賣 46 蚊, 中環黎講叫 ok.

花素蒸餃 24 蚊得 3 隻, 咪同北京樓一樣價 ?? 皮厚而且唔 ok. 餡料好似有陣草青味, 但唔係太嚴重. 味道尚算可以, 但賣到 8 蚊隻, 唔值 lor...

上海雲吞... 可以話係食過最差既一次, 單係上海雲吞已經可以 black list 依間翡翠. 雲吞連麵上枱, 冇一隻個皮係完整既, 全部穿晒. 明顯係淥定一堆, 然後放埋一齊, 用時翻淥, 咁樣用手指 / 筷子整過, 唔爛就出奇啦. 食落個皮漿糊咁, 唔係一塊架, 係一pat 架... 咁樣既雲吞, 點樣可以合格 ??

服務方面, 基本上係冇. 我地係同枱最快叫野既, 連其他食客既黃魚, 宮保蝦依 d 小菜同上到枱, 竟然我碗麵要等 20 分鐘, 係, waiter 有講明要等 10 - 15 分鐘, 但咁樣唔合理嘛. 另外原來要收茶錢每位 3 蚊, 但我真係唔覺眼佢邊度有寫要收 wor... 如果佢成壺茶比我, 我會比得順 d. 但問題係佢只搵過 waiter 見你飲晒就沖杯比你... 我就只飲左 2 杯暖茶而已, 咁就被屈 6.6 蚊.

On a Saturday night a bunch of us came here for a casual dinner. We took a ticket at around 7pm, and waited with the bunch of others who were mostly tourists. Though we were at least 10 large tables away from being seated, time seemed to pass fairly quickly. Perhaps it was our engaging conversations or perhaps it was the speedy table-turnover..... it didn't matter because 45 minutes later we were seated and I was starving!! sensible

First off was an appetizer of
chicken and noodle salad ("gai see fun pey") ($42) which is served chilled, with shredded chicken breast, cucumbers and translucent flat noodles, topped with a sesame and peanut sauce. The chicken was quite dry, and the sauce was mostly peanut-flavoured, which I’m not a fan of. My friends did enjoy this however. 5/10

Our second dish was one of my favourites -
marinated beef shin in five spice ($48). I've never had this at Crystal Jade, but I was pleasantly surprised. Although they could've used more seasoning to make the five spice more bold, the marinade was otherwise light and tasty. The beef shin was very thinly sliced - thick slices are quite hard to bite, and they aren't usually good as appetizers. My friends never had beef shin before, and some even went on to comment that it looked like brain because of the lines of translucent tendon and lean meat...but I assured them they were missing out if they didn't try it, and once they did they were happy I'd managed to persuade them =). 8/10

Steamed Xiao Lung Baos ($28 x 3) come in the standard bamboo steamers, each with four dumplings. Here, the dumpling skins are thin and delicate, not as al dente as DTF's but they didn't break too easily as long as you handled them with a little care =P. The dumplings here are relatively large – I don’t think I’d feel comfortable eating the whole thing in a bite! The meat inside was tender and juicy due to the use of fatty minced pork. Flavour wise it was slightly seasoned to bring out the flavours of pork, though there was only a little ‘soup’ inside these dumplings…6/10

I had a
winter melon soup ($36) with ham, whilst some of my friends had soya milk ($12 per glass). My soup was way too salty, and such a small portion (with some of its contents spilled out whilst they brought it out from the kitchen) that the price could not be justified. 3/10

Assorted Vegetables ($50 x 2) included Chinese mushrooms on top of bak choy and Chinese long cabbage. They were cooked so they still retained some crunchiness – definitely required some jaw muscles, especially for the cabbage. The sauce was not too salty, though next time I’ll probably stick to the cabbage in cream sauce… 6/10

Dan Dan Mian ($36) here is white hand-made ramen sitting in a wonderful red broth speckled with sesame seeds. The broth is rich but not thick, spicy (not so much that it burns or anything), and is dominantly peanut-flavoured. The ramen noodles were nicely cooked – not soft, but not the springy kind I like. The broth was actually a very balanced one, and it was exceeded my expectations for Crystal Jade. 7.5/10

Shanghainese Fried Noodles (with a little pork and cabbage) ($55) was fantastic. I loved the subtle flavours of mainly dark soy, yet it wasn’t overly salted or anything. The cabbage was nicely done, and the noodles were the thick chewy kind, almost like udon but these were in irregular sizes. I think this dish is one of those that please just about everyone! 8/10

Vegetarian dumplings ($22) came in a steamer with three large crescent shaped dumplings. These were better than DTF’s vegetarian dumplings as I recall them, and the thin, almost translucent skin certainly suited the veggie fillings better. They were so well-balanced in taste the addition of vinegar would’ve ruined its natural taste. 8/10

Pan fried dumpling (aka wor tip) ($26) came so late we forgot that we had ordered them! We were so full a plate of four dumplings just seemed so much. I managed to try one anyway, since it would’ve been a waste to leave these golden-brown-bottomed dumplings alone! The skin is thicker for these dumplings, so when it is fried it gets a harder crisp texture and doesn’t break. The meat inside was similar to the xiao lung baos – tasty but could’ve been leaner. For me, this pan fried dumpling fared better overall than the xiao lung baos, and I think it’s because of the crispy thicker skin and the smaller meat filling which I felt was more balanced! 7/10

After the last dumplings we were so stuffed, ordering the deep-fried soufflé balls and other desserts just seemed...unwise. I guess I'll have to try it next time! Instead, we sat a little longer, chatting / digesting all the food, and off we went for gelato elsewhere!

my patience is usually compromised in the IFC Crystal Jade as it is filled with customers and the restaurant is obviously short of hands. it's not unusual to wait for quite a while to be served and trying to get waiter's attention in the noisy restaurant is definitely an art and chance issue. BUT what i cannot understand is why a FLY can be SWIMMING in my wanton noodle??!!it's utterly disgusting and spoiled my good Sunday mood totally and my frd felt uncomfortable right away.oh my, it's definite

it's utterly disgusting and spoiled my good Sunday mood totally and my frd felt uncomfortable right away.

oh my, it's definitely my last visit to the store...as the restaurant is situated in a place to serve tons of tourist/vistors/business ppl each day, it should seriously consider to improve its hygiene...

小籠包熱騰騰,皮薄肉多,湯都好飲。酸辣湯都幾夠辣,但咸,加了醋都補償不了多少!料都足的~宋嫂魚湯無咩味道可言,只嚐到我下的胡椒味!薑也太多喇!鱔糊炒拉面太油太油太油喇!鱔不多,面勁油!賽螃蟹好滑,旦白好多,不過油都應該下得狠才會如此滑口!唔同人地搭枱其實即係點呢?四人卡位唔洗由兩對人坐?我要了唔同人地搭枱,最後都係同人地張枱痴埋既?點解呀?

水煮牛肉算幾辣, 可惜辣而不麻。另外放棄了一般小籠包點醋的方式來吃, 別有一番風味。詳情可以看看我拍下的影片。

是夜係IFC,係正斗同翡翠選左呢間,人很多,行完一個圈返黎先有位。2個人,要左雞絲粉皮,小籠包,酸辣湯麵同埋獅子頭。小籠包,皮夠薄,肉滿滿的,湯汁亦唔錯。雞絲粉皮,花生醬多左d,雞絲較少。酸辣湯麵,料足,偏酸,吃得過的。獅子頭,上菜其中一粒已經散左,有相為証丫。有d失望。食落口亦唔夠鬆化,水準有待改善丫。服務依舊,上菜永遠都係"亨亨"聲。加茶總係失驚無神係你塊面側面加。=.=作為連鎖店,質素未能夠保持,只有小籠包做得不錯,只能給一個ok面。
