  • It was a Sunday and we arrived at 10:30 a.m. when they opened. There were already people inside when we arrived a few minutes after the restaurant opened. Unbeknownst to me, if you order before 11 a.m., all of the dim sum dishes are only $2.98! What a steal! I didn't realize this otherwise I would have ordered more of the medium and large sized dim sum dishes. Although my first visit here was a bit lackluster, I found that I really enjoyed the food this time around. Maybe it was because we ordered better choices this time and because my friend and I had a good chat, it made the overall meal much more enjoyable too. I really enjoyed the Fried Taro Dumpling. Instead of the usual taro and meat inside, they substituted it here with mushrooms. It was very delicious! The Sticky Rice Siu Mai was also an unsuspecting favourite. The sticky rice was like hearty comfort food to me. I gobbled this up quickly. The Fried Bun with Creamy Pumpkin Stuffing was actually brought home since we had so much food. When I ate it at home, of course it wasn't as tasty as if I had eaten it there fresh at the restaurant. The Steamed Seaweed & Vegetable Fritter Rice Roll was also very good. It was presented with each rice roll standing up vertically on the plate which made it look so fancy. The Vegetable Wraps with Cabbage was very wholesome and tasty too. The Tofu Skin Roll was also very good. My friend especially liked this one because it's been years since she's had this as a vegetarian style one -- usually the ones at dim sum are filled with meat. The Honey Grapefruit Raindrop Cake was interesting. It really played off of the current food trends of a "raindrop cake". Unfortunately, it proved to be hype since it was just grapefruit jello and nothing too spectacular about it. It was paired with some random tangerines and a mound of red bean. Hmm.. Lastly, we received the Triple Flavoured Gluten Dish; a classic Chinese vegetarian dish. It's assorted flavoured gluten and I really enjoyed it! It was moist and flavourful. (It's also a Chef's Special dish which can only be ordered after 11 a.m.) After this successful visit, my views of this restaurant went up considerably. If you come here for dim sum, I highly suggest coming after 11 a.m. and place your order so that each dim sum is only $3 regardless of the size! One thing I did notice is that we were both very full and I was very satiated after the meal. Perhaps a reason for this full feeling could be that they use a lot of oil in their cooking... which perhaps isn't that healthy even though everything was meat-free and vegetarian.
