| - Weekend Dim Sum with Dad! New tries again. We went right at 9am when they opened. Place is very small and atomsphere was like a HK Style "Tea Meal" Diner. Ordered 11 items to try.
1. Flaky Pastry BBQ Pork Buns (Weekend Special Only) The pastry on the top is more similar to a "coconut cocktail bun" topping. The bun was really moist and fresh, with a slight crisp toast at the bottom. Pretty good!
2. Ha Gow
Pretty Big had like 2 whole shrimps inside..but didn't have any bamboo shoots inside. Skin was really thin and nicely made. Taste was ok.
3. Glutinous Rice Fried Dumplings
Freshly deep fried, texture was good, filling was just 1 filling, just grounded meat and a lot of sauce.
4. Lotus Wrapped Steamed Sticky Rice.
Taste was there in the filling, but the rice itself was a little bland.
5. Shrimp Steamed Rice Rolls
The Rice rolls were really smooth and texture was excellent. BUT...I found a piece of hair inside...I know it happens sometimes...but I was pretty grossed out after that...(didn't point it out..just didn't eat that piece, still wanted the rest of the food to come untampered lol)
6. Steamed Dumplings with Pork & Peanuts
Again the texture of the skin was really well made, but the filling in this one was mostly radish and hardly any pork pieces at all. Taste was ok.
7. Chicken Steamed Buns
They were really fluffy, fillings was great and taste great!
8. Speciality Pastries
It was basically a flat round flaky pastry, topped with lots of sesame seeds, and filled with the same pork filling as the Glutinous Rice Fried Dumplings. It was good, nice flakiness, pipping hot, and just enough seasoning.
9. Fishballs with Special Sauce
Deeped fried dace fishballs with a mini clam fermented tofu sauce. Freshly fried and very moist and flavourful. But the mixture inside was not throughly mixed. Some balls had more cilantro in it than others.
10. Siu Mai
Pretty huge and a jumbo shrimp on top. Inside the pork there was also mushrooms pieces. Was pretty tasty and good.
11. Sticky Fried Rice with Preserved Meats
It kinda looked like a mess on a plate. It was the last item and it looked like it was just plopped on a plate and 3 pieces of preserved meats on top. Taste was not bad..the rice was well cooked. But there was hardly anything in it..just little flecks of Chinese Sausages, 1 thin slice on top, 1 thin slice of pork liver sausage, and 1 thin slice of preserved pork, all on top.
Didn't finished the fried sticky rice so asked for a pack away box. The pack away box was not really clean..there was stain at the edge and a particle in the middle...asked for a new one...but I wasn't sure if she just went in and wiped it :'(
Service was pretty pleasant, despite the minor issues.
That's if for now folks!
