Dim Sum assortments (6/10)
Charming presentation. The dumplings were delicate, very traditional. The best dim sum has to be the roast pork pastry bun, the pasty was crispy with layers, slightly salty and the roast pork was tender and sweet. It was a great combination.
Bird’s nest broth with diced seafood and shredded bamboo pith (7/10)I really liked the soup, it didn’t not come with a heavy flavour and wasn’t watery or too thick. The diced seafood gave the broth a sweet delicate taste. The shredded bamboo pith gave the soup some texture/body.
Sauteed prawn, water clam and green vegetable (6/10)It was a very light and healthy dish, perfect for light. Prawns were crunchy and fairly seasoned, were not overcooked at all.
Poached green sprout with wolfberry in superior fish broth (5/10)It was a very standard poached green sprout.
Steamed fired rice served in wood steamer
The food itself is great, comes out very quickly from the kitchen. However, the service is a little bit below expectation, no different from the normal maxim restaurants. Give me a thumbs up if you like it!
