New restaurant in my Shanghai office campus serving Cantonese food. And for lunch, they offer Yumcha.
Yi Chun Yuan has three outlets in Shanghai, and this is the latest in Raffles City Changning. It was quite empty of lunchtime, and so we decided to go and try it.
蒸点 Steamed Dimsum
水晶虾饺 Prawn Dumpling 
香菇烧卖皇 Siewmai (Pork and Mushroom) 
蚝皇叉烧包 Charsiu (BBQ Pork) Bun 
香酱牛肉肠粉 Steamed Rice Roll with Minced Beef 
香酱叉烧肠粉 Steamed Rice Roll with BBQ Pork 
沙爹金钱肚 Ox Stomach in Satay Sauce 
酱皇蒸凤爪 Steamed Chicken Feet 
金蒜蒸排骨 Steamed Pork Ribs with Garlic 
珍珠糯米鸡 Steamed Glutinous Rice with Chicken
The steamed items were all quite nice, not outstanding, but still one of the better ones in this mall.
煎炸焗点 Fried Dimsum
七味脆豆腐 Crispy Tofu with Seven Tastes 
足料剪萝卜糕 Pan fried Radish Cake 
千层萝卜酥 Radish Puff Pastry 
南洋榴莲酥 Durian Puff Pastry
I skipped all the baked and fried stuff except the radish cake. Called carrot cake in Singapore, this one had Chinese sausage in the cake and was quite alright.
煲仔饭 Casserole Rice
驰名腊味煲仔饭 Preserved Meat Casserole Rice 
咸鱼爽肉煲仔饭 Salted Fish and Pork Belly Casserole Rice
Two different casseroles to share. They took some time to prepare as they were prepared from scratch. I find the salted fish one lacked of salted fish, i.e. they should put more of it 🙂 Both were lacking of the smokiness of casserole rice.
经典小炒 Hong Kong Cuisine
烧腊拼盘 Assorted Roast Platter 
卤水拼盘 Assorted Braised Platter
A couple of meat platters to share – one was classic Cantonese style roast and the other Teochew style braise. Both were quite delicious.
干炒牛河 Stir-fry Beef Rice Noodles 
拍姜炒芥兰 Sautéed Kailan with Ginger 
生菜炒大肠 Lettuce with Pig Intestine
The stir-fry dishes were done very well. However I seldom ate my dinners here in the mall so I would not have a chance to try their other dishes that were available during the dinner service.
Even though they provided hot dessert (mung bean soup) and cut fruits for free as self-service, I could not resist to order the almond paste as I loved the taste of almond (even though my mom thought that it smelt of cockroach).
Overall the food was alright, but because it was quite new, this service staff needed more training. This would be a restaurant that we would go only if the rest are fully booked.
