U Banquet Mong Kok

When in Hong Kong must try the King of Har Gow at U Banquet. I tried the one along Nathan Road.


Every table got put the ad for their Har Gow


This is vege dumpling its very crunchy and nice


The Har Gow is big and very tasty with fresh prawn and thin skin.
Really topping in taste.


This prawn chee cheong fun is also very tasty but portion a little small, I eated in under a minute.


Another specialty of dumpling in XO sauce. Nice.



Phoenix Claw. Fantastic flavor and big claws, I never eated a better one before!


Prawns on siu mai. Faultless.

This is really good dimsum and the price is cheap also given the settings, average item was about HKD13 only.

This is a must-go when I go back here again.

Lei Garden Restaurant @ Tsim Sha Tsui

Booked a table for lunch to try out the famous 5-layer roast pork.



Very tiny portion of very exquisite taste of 5 layer roast pork serve with a form of mustard sauce. Skin is crispy, and the meat almost melts in your mouth



Nice har gow with big pieces of prawn inside. Delicious.



The loh mai kai is also nice in the lotus wrap.



Lau Sa Bao has sweet and creamy interior



Char Siew Bao has nice sliced char siew inside



Ham Sui Kok has very little filling and make the bite lacking despite crispy shell.



Siew Ma with big chunky prawn this is very tasty



Prawn Chee Cheong Fun is great skin and filling, pair with the fragrance of soya sos.

Good service, good food, really worth the Michelin star.

Fusan Dim Sum @ Ipoh

Most famous dimsum in Ipoh. Now in new premises, no need to stand next to the table waiting for them to finish eating. that is why we came to eated.

Stuffed brinjal and chili. So-so la.


Siu mai. Big and tasty.


Har Kow. Disappointed. Small prawns.


Prawn Chee Cheong Fun. Disappointing. Expected better soya saos


Duno what mai, but got prawn one. This one better than the har gao.



Honestly I dont find this selection that great. Puchong dim sum is better.

Oriental Pavilion Dim Sum @ Jaya 33

Very crowding place during weekend dim sum. I asked for siu mai and har gow, the girl tell me " see the trolley. if got, got la, if dun have, dun have la"

Then I look at her funny and she sked, so she bring me a few items.

This is octopus. My frens eated, I dint eated cos I sked the tentacle stick to inside ur mouth.



This is fishball, taste is ok I guess.



This is yue piu and meat/fish paste. I think its nice esp. the sause.



Chicken feet. Nice ingredient but taste is bland. Dip the sause from the above dish, taste better.



Dunno what mai, but this taste good!



Scallop mai - got prawn, scallope and spinach. Ok la, but the fresh is there.



I love their Char Lobakko. Superb. I'd order 2 plate but the girl run away liao she sked I eated her so dint get to ordered.



This place is seriously crowded on weekend. Service, food availability is no good. But the food, well I can say is one of the better tasting around the area.

Will I return? Probably, but will go earlier to avoid the crowding.

Jaya Palace Dim Sum @ Petaling Jaya

This is dim sum at Jaya Palace. Some blogs say nice so I go try.

Chicken feet is alright, no problems, seasoned properly.



xiao loong bao tastes average, i felt it couold do with a little more soup.


Fried lobak ko was not bad too. It had right balance of chai poh. Not really spicy though.


The har gow was nice with big prawns.


The prawn chee cheong fun may look a little sad, but the taste was good, again it had big prawns that tasted good.


Last item was a stuff scallop, RM14 each. this one is not on the dimsum menu but the dinner menu, i had it last time i was there. its not bad la, but i love scallop so i ordered it.



Some say its the best dimsum in PJ, but I dont think so. Its good enough for a weekend outing with family, but I wont yearn to go back for dim sum.

Axian Dim Sum Puchong (2nd posting)

Todays visit, service was good. It was 90% full but since they open a new shoplot i think things are not so cramp and rush.


Scallop Dumpling (Tai Ji Kow). I got a first basket which was gutter, but they promptly replace with a new and fresh one.


Prawn Dumpling (Har Gow) is also their signature item. It did not disappoint.


Prawn Roll (Har Kin) was warm but still crispy. I like to order this when dimsumming.


Fuhcuk roll. Inside is a fish paste, its ok la but I not a fan of fish paste.


Lao Sa Bao - somehow... skin is thicker than last time liao. Oh noes.


Chee cheong fun, prawn. The soy sauce was decent, flour not too thick and chili oil ok. Overall, above average.


Dog Vege Dumpling. Inside is pork and dog vege. Taste good if you like dog vege.

Another item i had was Salad Prawn. It was hot out of the kitchen and very tasty. before I can take picture already eated liao :P

Having eated most of puchong dimsum i have to say taste wise this is still my favourite.

If you go on a non-crowded time, this is my recommendation for dim sum in the area.

Chuai Heng Bukit Bintang

My favourite dim sum house.

Wikimapia Link


Crunchy Wu Kok with thin skin and ample filling


I simply loves this prawn Chee cheong Fun. the soy sauce also superior.



Chicken feed got radish slice, nice. Char Siew Bao can see the sliced charsiew. Nice.


This one RM14. Not worth it.



Har Gao, is ok la. I dunno how good can a har gao get, the prawn is fresh lor.


Another of my fav, is the Seafood Wad Tan Hor. Got 2 of each : prawn, scallop, fish slice, sotong.
Really nice flavour for those who are fans of chinese restaurant hor fun.

I go here once in a few weeks. It gets packed on weekends.

Oh, not cheap. ~Rm7 per dish, those at special counter are like RM14 per dish/bowl.

Long Feng Restaurant @ Renaissance Melaka

This is located inside Renaissance Melaka, my favourite hotel there. Its Halal, apparently.
Anyway just had a great weekend and checking out time, go up here to try the dimsum.


I like the slightly classic decor here


Nice teapot and soup container. Wish I had one ;)


I guess in the old days, the niceness of your porcelain shows ur status


yes i am southpaw


got private dining rooms also


This is seafood fried rice, taste ok la, its just friend rice rite...


Prawns were fairly big and crunchy, nice.


Average fair chicken feet


This dont look too good, taste wise is average too


The dumpling and sharksfin, I forgot the price but it wasnt too exxpensive.

This place has a nice setting, but the dim sum is normal (I love dimsum).
