A Journey to Jiangsu – Roast Duck & Xiao Long Bao at Nanjing Impressions

Stepping into Nanjing Impressions felt like entering an old-world teahouse straight out of Jiangsu province. With its vintage decor and traditional dishes, this restaurant offers more than just food—it’s a cultural experience. On my recent visit, two dishes stood out and stole the spotlight: the roast duck and the ever-beloved Xiao Long Bao. The Nanjing-style roast duck was tender, flavorful, and beautifully balanced with crisp skin and succulent meat. Served with a sweet soy glaze, it had just the right amount of richness without being overly greasy. Each slice was carved with care and packed with deep, aromatic flavor. Then came the Xiao Long Bao, delicate soup dumplings that burst with umami in every bite. The wrappers were thin yet sturdy, holding the flavorful broth and juicy filling inside like little pockets of joy. A dip in black vinegar and ginger made them absolutely irresistible. Nanjing Impressions is perfect for anyone craving traditional Jiangnan flavors with a refined touch. It’s a taste of China’s culinary heritage right here in Singapore. #singaporetrip #nanjingimpressions #roastduckdelight #xiaolongbaolove #chinesecuisinesg #soupdumplingheaven #foodieinsingapore #foodbloggerspick #jiangsuflavors
