Restaurant Review: Crystal Jade

Location: 154 Little Bourke St, Melbourne

Phone: (03) 9639 2633

Cuisine: Chinese

Overall impression: 5.5/10 

Crystal Jade is one of the few restaurants that offer yum cha alongside good and prompt service. It has a nice ambience and if you are seated near the glass windows, it is such a delight to look out and see the bustle of China Town. 

As far as the yum cha experience goes, the food certainly meets expectations. Although the Xiao Long Baos do not hold a candle to Hutong's offerings, the rest of the items were very good. The following are some of the dishes we had.

 

It was perfect for the relaxing Sunday brunch we were after.
