Lunch at Canton Paradise MBS
We were at Canton Paradise Marina Bay Sands for a light lunch and ordered a dim sum item, a chef recommended item and a noodle dish. Chinese tea was charged at $$1.80 per person. The usual service charge and GST would be added to the bill.
The dim sum item of deep fried taro puff with diced chicken ($5.80 for 3 pieces) was very good. It had nice golden brown crispy skin and filling of delicious smooth taro and sweet and savoury diced chicken.
We had the Salt & Pepper Deep-fried Tofu ($8.80) which came is a small edible basket. There was a thin crisp exterior which was nicely seasoned and the inside was soft and smooth. It was a simple but delightful dish.
The wok-fried hor mun with beef ($16.80) was not the best looking dish but it was rather tasty. The thin slices of beef had a nice tender texture and savoury juiciness and the generous amount of bring sprouts added some crunchiness.
If you are looking for an affordable Chinese restaurant in Marina Bay Sands, we would have no hesitation in suggesting Canton Paradise. We thought the place was pleasant and the service was courteous and efficient. There is a wide range of food and the prices are reasonable. For slightly more than twice the carpark fees in Marina Bay Sands, we had a satisfying and enjoyable lunch for two at Canton Paradise MBS.
