Ordered the signature lunch set ($21.90++) as it was value for money and had a variety of dim sum I wanted to try. For the sizzling poached rice in chicken, the crispy fried rice was literally sizzling when poured in. The broth was deeply infused with flavour and felt like it had been boiled for many hours. The egg in the soup was fluffy and juicy - kind of feels like it was fried even though it didn't look like it. The vegetables were cut to bite size and went well with the soup. And the chicken was divine as well.
For the steamed siew mai, the prawns were fresh and bouncy, the skin was just right and not soggy and it was topped with real ebiko. I'm glad I tried this first because my mind was blown by the house special siew mai, topped with dried shrimp (hae bee hiam) which elevated the siew mai to the next level. The fried beancurd prawn is kind of like a fried prawn pancake, really crispy without compromising on the texture of the prawns. Pairs well with the mayo which is not your regular mayo, it had a pink tint and tasted slightly sweeter than normal mayo.
Then I went for the buns. The pan fried mei cai pork bun was so interesting, the filling kind of tasted pickled and the pau is soft and slightly crispy on the outside. The baked BBQ pork bun was amazing, the outside had a polo bun crispy coating dusted with icing sugar, and the BBQ pork filling was great too.
For dessert, the wolfberry jelly was so pretty, decorated with chrysanthemum flowers and goji berry. Was pleasantly surprised that it tasted amazing too, the jelly had a sweet chrysanthemum tea fragrance and the goji berry was plump and juicy.
We also got the deep fried pork belly noodles set. While the presentation was great, I expected it to taste like your regular coffeeshop roasted pork noodles and I was so wrong. The noodles were bouncy and soft and not like your regular mee kia. The roasted pork was fragrant, juicy and not too hard or salty. This was served with the chrysanthemum woflberry jelly and I was happy to have more.
For the drinks, the signature lunch set came with the pu'er ripe tea (100 years) which was light and comforting. For the roasted pork noodles set, I opted to add 40 cents to upgrade to iced Hong Kong milk tea, which was similarly not too sweet.
Overall, I am impressed with the vibes, unique dishes, quality and taste of the food. Will be back again.
