Crystal Jade started to issue out queue numbers for the Hi Tea started. As it was still early, Ryan & I took the queue number and then walked around Plaza Sin. We head back to the restaurant at about 2.30pm and waited for 5-10 minutes before being allocated a seat. After screening through the menu, we found out that almost all of the dim sum have 30%. So we decided to order a few dim sums to try.
Our first order was siew mai, but we were told that it was sold out already. Hmm... it is kind of ridiculous thou, for it was still consider early! Can't help but wonder if their siew mai was one of the popular dish on the menu. Oh well, at least the rest of the dim sum were still available.
The service staff were friendly and promotes the baked crispy BBQ pork bun, since siew mai is out, we decided to give it a try. The卖像of the dish looks similar to Tim Ho Wah Baked Bun with BBQ pork, it was served warm and taste crispy. However I still prefer Tim Ho Wah baked bun with BBQ pork. :)
The ha-kau is stuffed with prawns and you can taste some pepper, not too bad. The beancurd skin rolled w pork & shrimp is average but the Liu Sa Bao is a disappointment! The custard is not flowing and it taste quite salt-ish, 名副其实的 Salted Egg Yolk!
The last dim sum, pan fried red bean paste cake is the best! The red bean is wrapped with pan fired mochi and you can see the red bean overflowing, SO Delicious!! Drooling already….
Total: 2 pax
Bill: $24
