What’s not to love about dimsum with a stunning view! Tried their HKD 168 all inclusive dim sum lunch set.My favourite was the shrimp toast (蝦多士 - crispy exterior, combination of bouncy and soft fluffy texture, didn’t feel oily at all), also really enjoyed the shrimp dumpling (蝦餃/Har gow - filled to the brim with shrimps!) and shao mai (燒賣), though both were quite heavily seasoned. The abalone tart 鮑魚酥was nice too thought I still don’t think the buttery tart base matches the savoury abalone, but

The abalone tart 鮑魚酥was nice too thought I still don’t think the buttery tart base matches the savoury abalone, but the abalone was of great quality with a delightful aroma! I was also surprised by the glutinous rice with chicken 糯米雞, the rice was soft while retaining a mild chewiness, the entire thing was well seasoned and didn’t taste too oily. It has been quite a while since I last enjoyed a 糯米雞😂
The bbq pork 叉燒 and vegetarian goose wrap素鵝 were decent but not particularly memorable, the bbq pork was quite lean but tender which I liked. A few other items such as the bbq pork bun叉燒包, pan-fried rice rolls 煎腸粉 and black sesame dessert soup 黑芝麻糊 were quite mediocre, and tasted way worse than the ones I have had at more reasonably priced dim sum places. There also weren’t enough servers so it took us forever to get their attention and there was a huge pile of plates and bamboo steamers on a our table half of the time.
Regardless, the overall experience was very nice given the stunning view. Worth a first try, especially with friends and family, but probably won’t revisit.
