Passing by this place every morning on my way to work, and finally got a chance to try the food here today. I only had one hour for lunch, the pace of the food coming was a bit slow, so it was a bit rush for me. Otherwise it’s fine, a nice and chill place to enjoy a meal with friends over delicious food and tea.

The dim sum we had was this crab and prawn dumplings with gold foil on the top. Sounds fancy, eh? I did not know what those black dots were, so I taste one individually. It’s vinegar, sweetened vinegar, which brought out the taste of crab and prawn of the dumplings so well.

Then it’s the scallop. When I cut through it, seemed like it’s been pan fried a little. A bit crispy on the outside, and so soft on the inside. Really good. I loved its interesting presentation. With the crepe or pancake at the bottom and the condiments around it, I really wanted to wrap it up and eat it like Peking Duck. However, I did not want more carbs in my meal today, so I didn’t.

Umm… salty salty ox tail. I really like ox tail in general, but the one we had today was way too salty. I only had a few bites while the meat was still soaking in the sauce, then I had to move it to a clean bowl. Lots and lots of tea and water was needed after I finished this dish. I usually like to suck on the bone for the bone marrow, but I could not do it with this one. Lol… The meat itself was savory, juicy, tender and soft. The whole big
chunk of meat just fell off the bone as I pushed a little with my fork. It was perfect cooking timing. I loved the pilled cherry tomato on the side, so sweet and refreshing that helped a little when it’s too salty.

Steamed fish, one of those garouper I believed. Oh! So good! I’m salivating right now just re-thinking it. So smooth like it melted in my mouth! I could have ten more orders of that.

Veggie is always nice to round up a meal. We had pea sprout, but it was just okay… Maybe it’s not in the season. A bit too chewy.

Overall, it was a great meal and I'll definitely come back again.
