Must try: Taro Cake (the triangle)
We haven't been here in a while and I'm not sure if the quality has gone downhill, if my dim sum standards have gone up, or it's an off day, but we were left overall unsatisfied with the food.
General themes:
1. The shrimp is not succulent or fresh. And really, what's dim sum without good shrimp? It's in 80% of the dishes.
2. Dishes were way too salty. (1) Turnip Cake is good for its mild taste with the occasional zing from the meat or dried shrimp bits, don't ruin that with sodium overload. Same goes for (2) Crab Balls...
3. Dishes that used to be good no longer is. The (3) Steamed Rice with Sparerib barely had spareribs and the nonexistent spareribs barely had any meat on them. The (4) Durian Pastry was crumbled and sad looking. Worst was the (5) Custard and Egg Yolk Bun... the bun was hard and grey instead of fluffy and white, it's dense like it didn't rise properly and the inside was separating (egg yolk and sugary syrup). Ughhh disappointment.
4. Some dishes are just what the random... These might just be our mistake in ordering, so take with grain of salt. (6) Deep Fried Salad Shrimp Roll does not work, period.
Good thing there are plenty of dim sum places to go around. Will maybe drop by if in the area, will not make effort to come again.
