Nove is one of Octavo group’s lesser known restaurants, and is Umberto Bombana’s Chinese concept that serves up a range of creative dim sum! 🥢Pic 1️⃣: Steamed Buns filled with Runny Custard (流沙奶黃包) - $45 hkd— My favourite dish of the meal, buns were so light and soft, and steamed to perfection.

Pic 1️⃣: Steamed Buns filled with Runny Custard (流沙奶黃包) - $45 hkd
— My favourite dish of the meal, buns were so light and soft, and steamed to perfection. The custard was some of the runniest I’ve ever had and the egg yolk taste was super strong.
Pic 2️⃣: Steamed Egg White and Crab Meat Dumplings (西施蟹肉餃)- $55 hkd
— Very flavourful and with a generous amount of filling. The crab taste was fragrant, strong and well seasoned.
Pic 3️⃣: Flaky Turnip Pastry Puff (蘿蔔千絲酥)- $65 hkd
— Wasn’t a fan of this. Seemed a little under baked to me, it was quite damp and the colour of the puff pastry was very pale. Also quite greasy.
Pic 4️⃣: Black Truffle Chiu Chow Dumplings (黑松露水晶餃)- $40 hkd
— A strong black truffle taste. Loved the crunch that the vegetables gave the dish.
Pic 5️⃣: Baked BBQ Pork Buns (焗叉燒餐包)- $45hkd
— The buns were soo tiny 😂 but taste wise it was nice. The buns were super soft and fluffy, cha siu filling was slightly sweet for me.
Pic 6️⃣: Classic Prawn Toasts (懷舊蝦多士)- $55hkd
— Haven’t had these in so long and these definitely satisfied my craving. Toasts were crispy and flaky, the shrimp was super flavourful but more on the salty side.
Pic 7️⃣: Supreme Soy Stir-Fried Chow Mien Noodles (豉油皇炒麵)- $135 hkd
— The soy sauce was overly sweet for me, but that’s just a personal preference. Noodles had a nice texture and taste, vegetables were cooked well.
Pic 8️⃣: Rice Flour Rolls with Satay Sauce Minced Beef (沙嗲牛肉腸)- $65 hkd
— The satay sauce wasn’t particularly strong as I could barely taste it, but the beef was seasoned nicely.
