As summer heats up, nothing revives the appetite like bold and refreshing flavours. Dab Pa proudly presents our limited-time summer dishes, blending the elegance of Beijing cuisine with the rich flair of Sichuan to bring you seasonal dishes that awaken the senses and cool the soul.
Stir-Fried Squid Fillet with Preserved Mustard Green and Bamboo Shoot
This vibrant summer dish features the bold, savoury aroma of preserved mustard greens perfectly paired with crisp bamboo shoots, stir-fried over high heat with tender, springy cuttlefish. The result is an explosion of fragrance and flavour - rich in umami, subtly tangy, and beautifully layered. With its refreshing crunch and natural sweetness from seafood, it’s the perfect appetiser to awaken the palate and pair with a bowl of warm rice during the hot summer months.
Honey-glazed Crispy Eel
A beloved classic of Shanghai cuisine, "Honey-glazed Crispy Eel" is a dish that delights with every bite. Tender eel is evenly brushed with a delicate honey sauce, then deep-fried to golden perfection. The result is a beautifully crisp exterior that gives way to soft, succulent meat inside. Sweet but never overwhelming, the harmony of textures - crunchy, tender, and juicy - creates a rich, layered experience that lingers on the palate and leaves a lasting impression.
Assorted Seafood Lor Mee (Shrimp, Squid Fillet and Sakura Shrimp)
This dish brings together three ocean treasures in one satisfying bowl - crisp cuttlefish, succulent prawns, and aromatic sakura shrimp. Each bite offers a gradual unfolding of textures and flavours, creating a deeply satisfying and layered experience. The noodles are simmered in a rich, slow-cooked broth that is full-bodied yet never greasy. Perfectly al dente, they soak up the essence of the soup and seafood, reflecting the chef’s refined technique and attention to detail in every element of the dish.
Shanghai Pan-fried Pork Bun
Its golden, crispy bottom gives way to a soft, pillowy top, and with just one bite, a savoury broth bursts from within - rich, warm, and satisfying. The pork filling is tender and finely textured, delivering a juicy, flavourful bite every time. Whether enjoyed as a snack or paired with a main course, this beloved dish never fails to impress and remains a must-try staple for any lover of authentic Shanghainese flavours.
Roasted Pork Belly and Chopped Scallion Served with Chinese Pancake
This dish features perfectly marbled pork belly, grilled until the outer layer is lightly crisp while maintaining a tender, juicy interior. Sliced up to just the right thickness, the pork is laid on a bed of fragrant chopped scallion sauce. Its golden-brown hue and rich aroma are instantly enticing. To enjoy, simply wrap a slice in a warm Chinese pancake with a touch of scallions. Each bite bursts with savoury richness from the pork and a refreshing hint of green onion. The textures are beautifully layered, offering a satisfying yet surprisingly light experience that keeps you coming back for more.
Stir-Fried Wagyu Beef, Mushroom and Bamboo Shoot with Black Pepper Sauce
This dish is a masterful expression of Beijing cuisine’s precise control of heat and aroma. Tender, juicy wagyu beef is stir-fried with fragrant mushrooms and crisp bamboo shoots, all brought together with a bold yet balanced black pepper sauce that clings to the beef without overpowering its natural flavour. To finish, a layer of crispy fried taro shreds is added, creating a harmonious contrast of textures - crunchy and tender, spicy and rich. Every bite reveals new layers of flavour, making it a surprisingly complex and satisfying experience.
Whether you're dining with family or close friends, Dab Pa warmly invites you to savour the refreshing and refined summer tastes inspired by the best of Beijing and Sichuan cuisine - a perfect way to elevate your summer dining moments.
