JiangNan Philadelphia – A Second Visit to Philly’s Priciest Chinese

📍 927 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19107 🥟 JiangNan Soup Dumplings Pretty standard — honestly, most soup dumplings I've had in the US taste similar 😅. Still, I love them and order every time! 🦆 Peking Duck Decent — one of their signature dishes 🦆✨. Also recommend the duck at Dim Sum House (Shanghai #1) in NJ. 🫓 Extra Duck Pancakes (+5 sheets) — needed because the initial serving was small. 🦀️ Hand-Picked Crab Meat Stir-Fry Recommended for first-timers! 🦀💛 The crab container is adorable 🦀🏺. If you’re not a huge crab fan, try the crab tofu version for better value. $29.95 🦐 Longjing Tea Shelled Shrimp Very bland — not recommended 😕. Wanted to try it before (always sold out), but it didn’t live up to the hype. $26.95 🐑 Flamed Lamb with Cumin Tasty, goes great with rice — but portion is small. Comes with a flaming presentation 🔥📸. $25.95 🍛 Kimchi Cheese Fried Rice Okay, but not as cheesy as expected 🧀😅. Kimchi flavor is mild. $16.95 🍚 Steamed Rice (ordered separately) 🧋 Brown Sugar Dirty Milk Tea Sweet and creamy — solid choice. 🍶 Fermented Rice & Osmanthus Jelly Chilled dessert with popping boba — refreshing! 🥧 Brown Sugar Glutinous Rice Cakes Tasty but pricey. 🍧 Yogurt Fruit Medley Always get this to-go — easy and delicious! 🍓🥣 $13.95 📊 Pros: Nicer ambiance for a Philly Chinese spot (along with Dandan in Ardmore). Creative dishes that appeal to younger crowds. 📉 Cons: Not the best value — you’re paying for the vibe and presentation. #ChineseFineDining #100RestaurantsChallenge #DinnerTonight #Philly #PhillyFood #PhillyEats
