Jin Shan Lou @ MBS Hotel Lobby 2

1. San Bei Ji 三杯鸡 | 2. Deep Fried Prawns in Blackberry Honey Mayonnaise | 3. Seafood Soup Served in Pumpkin

Jin Shan Lou serves a mixture of authentic Catonese, Hunan and Sichuan dishes, and is a restaurant that is usually overlooked unless you're a guest at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel.  They have a good variety of dishes, including soup, for those looking for a dose of comfort food. 

We had 2 of their signature dishes and they were both indeed very savoury! We really liked the Deep fried prawns in  blackberry honey mayonnaise sauce topped with almond - very interesting, and the sweetness of the sauce was not overpowering. The pumpkin seafood soup came with a generous serving of chopped seafood bits (prawns, sliced abalone, fish maw, dried and fresh scallops) that added to the sweetness of the pumpkin. Very yummy! It really does whet your appetite. The chicken in the San Bei Ji, or 3 cup chicken, was very soft as well. If you're a garlic lover, you wouldn't want to miss the whole garlic that has been simmered and infused with the taste of the 3 different types of sauces in this dish.

Other dishes worth a try: Cod Fish in Jin Shan Special Sauce, Siew Mai with Abalone and Pork Slices with Garlic.
