Jardin Jazmin - Santo Domingo

The food here is so good. I recommend ordering a variety of boards tapas style. Vegans should be sure to ask about ingredients as the menu does not provide much information, but there are a lot of options. Many of the most tasty things are fried, so be sure to be ready for some guilty pleasure.

The food at this restaurant is delicious, with a special emphasis on their bowls. The jasmine tea with beads is amazing. Everything is fresh and made to order.

I ordered a meal and specifically requested that nothing be deep fried. However, when my meal arrived, it included a deep fried protein source. I reminded the server of my request and asked for a non-deep fried protein such as tofu or seitan. Unfortunately, when the meal returned, it hardly resembled what I had originally ordered. I emphasized again that I wanted tofu, but instead I was brought a block of cold, uncooked tofu straight from the package.

The summer rolls are delicious. The chow mein is also quite tasty.

I ordered a meal and specifically requested that nothing be deep fried. However, when my meal arrived, the protein source was deep fried. I reiterated my request for a non-deep fried protein source, such as tofu or seitan. The server returned with a meal that hardly resembled what I had ordered. So I simply asked for some tofu. But to my dismay, I was served a block of cold, unflavored silken tofu straight from the package.
