If you are in JCube and you are looking for a good Chinese restaurant to have a meal, I highly recommend The Good Trio, a grand-looking Chinese restaurant located at the ground floor of JCube that serves up a delectable menu of Hokkien Sichuan dishes.
Do be careful when you are tackling Deep Fried Ribbon Fish as this fish is full of bones but the contrast between the tender flesh and crispy skin makes this such a delicious snack, you will not mind the bones at all.
Steamed Pork Dumplings, which is more commonly known as Xiao Long Bao, is a Shanghai dim sum made popular by restaurants such as Din Tai Fung and Paradise Dynasty. Although the stock sealed inside the dumplings is not fragrant enough and the skin breaks easily, the ingredients are fresh enough to warrant a try.
I personally think that Deep Fried Corn-Shape Fish (Half) is an ingenious creation. The fish fillet is deep-fried and wrapped around bok choy to resemble corn. Served with sweet and sour sauce, the bok choy compliments the crispy fish very well.
Spinach in Supreme Stock is a little disappointing. The superior stock tastes like a very diluted salted egg sauce which does not go well with the spinach at all.
Double-Boiled Chicken Soup may look clear, but the soup has captured all the nutrients from the chicken and various ingredients.
The Good Trio Fried Rice tastes average and it is a little oily for my liking. It is not even comparable to Din Tai Fung’s Egg Fried Rice.
Water Chestnut Cake is not too sweet, making it a great dessert to end a meal with. The natural sweetness of water chestnut gives this dessert a natural sweetness.
Besides the ala carte menu, The Good Trio also offers many Set Menu that allows you to try a number of their signature dishes in one sitting without the hassle of going through the menu. The prices are reasonable and the food is of above average quality.
