Enjoy utmost privacy with special function rooms to cater for special occasions and functions. And now let me showcase to you why Jasmine is one of Makati's most sought after Cantonese Cuisine restaurant.
For appetizer we had Lotus roots stuffed with glutinous rice
Radish and carrot in sour sauce, It has that stingy taste that my dad would so love... radish in appetizers is very common in Chinese dishes, and also gives that added flavor to your favorite appetizers
And what is Chinese cuisine without dim sum right? Here we have four (4) dim-sum specials only found in Shanghai and here in Jasmine

Atop is the Wagyu Beef with mango roll
A mix of Chinese and Western bests that makes a new and delicious dim sum treat.

Steamed scallops, fresh bean curd
As much as it looks delicious, I am really not a fan of bean curd so I was not able to take a bite of this

Steamed lobster and vegetable dumplings
Much like Hakaw but better and tastier with the scent of fresh lobster and a mix of tasty vegetables, much to my liking

And last for dim-sum, Steamed Shanghainese pork dumpling with goose liver
Looks somewhat like a xiao long bao, but not soupy as a xiao long bao. Delicious and tasty and look at that neat, cute looking dim sum container... I want one at home for display =P
which are specially flown in from France, fried crisp to a batter with a sweet tangy sauce was one of my favorites of the night
Steamed Mantis with egg white
one exotic dish indeed, though available in many Chinese restaurants but is one of the best tasting mantis in the metro, better than prawns, the next best thing to lobster

Steamed sea garoupa, soya bean in lotus leaf
steamed fresh with all the taste and aroma from the lotus leaf settling in makes it more enticing, steamed just enough for the juices to flow as you feast on the tender fish meat

Wok fried fillet of beef, wasabi sauce
perfect with rice, a mix of asparagus shoots, green and red pepper, gave it a little spicy texture, yet holds in that beefy flavor that I fell in love with that night
Shanghainese chicken curry in clay pot
Fresh chicken cutlet in curry sauce, slow cooked in clay pot to a delightful mix of flavors and spices
Assorted seafood with rice and soup
Almost like porridge but a totally different rice food experience
Coconut pudding, osmanthus and bird's nest with Oolong tea creme brulee
A must-have is the Oolong tea creme brulee, I admire that Oolong tea flavor was infused inside with no bitter after taste, and sugar conscious people would not fear of it being too sweet. The coconut pudding is also a great compliment to a very fulfilling night of extraordinary dishes
