The piglet-shaped custard bun is interesting in design and its flavor exceeds expectations. The pan-fried turnip cake is average, and while the Hainan chicken rice is good, I would like to try other options.
Because I was quite full from the last meal, dinner happened to be dim sum. I thought dim sum would be more suitable for eating in moderation, so I decided to give it a try. Since I didn't order any set meals, I just ordered a few dishes to sample.
Pork Bun with Flowing Lava Filling - The shape of the pig is really funny. To eat it properly, you need to poke its nostril first to let the steam out, so it doesn't burst when you take a bite. It tasted better than I expected. Although I don't really like sweets, this dish performed well.
Pan-fried Radish Cake - It was quite standard. I was expecting something more special, like a unique Hong Kong-style radish cake. A bit of a disappointment.
Dark Soy Sauce Chicken Rice - It tasted good, but I feel like next time I might want to try another dish, like the XO sauce steamed rice with cured meats.
Overall, this experience was pretty good. I will definitely come back to dine here next time.
In dim sum, my favorite is the pork bun with molten lava filling, and I always order it when I have dim sum. The crispy shrimp rice rolls are also something I almost always order, but unfortunately, they weren't available that day.
The Hainanese chicken rice has tender chicken, and the slightly runny egg mixed with rice is very suitable. The radish cake is quite fragrant.
The tapioca pudding isn't really to my taste, but the yam balls in it are quite chewy.
Personally, I think dim sum is a great place to go when you don't want to eat too much, as you can choose according to your appetite at that moment.
