Flourful Delight (Golden Mile)

Sichuan red oil wanton (or 红油抄手) is one of the dishes I have fallen in love with. Apparently, the name of the dish comes from how it resembles people folding their arms during the cold winter months.

You will be surprised to learn that the dish is not as spicy as the intimidating red chilli oil suggests. Instead, the sauce is rich, sweet, savoury and garlicky with a great aromatic profile. The wanton are usually thin and filled with meat or shrimp. The best way to enjoy it is to slurp it up from the bowl with a mouthful of that absolutely addictive sauce.

Flourful Delights is better known for their xiaolongbaos but I found them to be on the dry side and kinda a little bland for my liking. I however enjoyed their red oil wantons and pot stickers which were simply delightful.

The xiao long bao ($5 for 7) from Flourful Delight are huge! They are definitely bigger than the usual ones I have in various restaurants and the price is very reasonable given the generous portion. The skin is thin, the pork filling is well-seasoned and each bite brings a burst of flavourful broth. Good stuff!

Xiao long bao ($5/7pc)
⭐️ 4/5 ⭐️
🍴Affordable and enjoyable Xiao long bao served piping hot in a bamboo basket. For hawker standards, the handmade dumpling skin was pretty impressive - thin enough but still stayed intact when lifted up. If we have to nitpick, the peaks of the baos were a tad thick (but this is in comparison to our fav restaurants). The encased meat was juicy and tender with a good lean-fatty meat ratio, and nestled in a light but tasty enough broth. Overall, while not as flavourful or refined as restaurants, definitely see ourselves returning for more given this price point!
