I rate this joint. It looks like the whole family's involved in a mom-and-pop style, probably with 80 year old grandma at the back wrapping dumplings and popping them into the steamers. The service is pleasant with very prompt tea filling and just efficient (and not uber-eager) dish clearing. The place is smallish but cozy, yet there is an obvious lack of eardrum-bursting people yapping away. The food was the highlight though, excellent quality and handmade perfectly, and served pipping hot to t
We ordered 2 steamers of prawn dumplings (har gau), 1 zucchini dumpling, 1 vegetarian dumpling, all of which came in translucent, just-sticky-enough-to-hold-it-together wrappings, which allowed you to peer inside at the wonderful colours of the ingredients, and just looked and tasted like a mouthful of freshness. The wonton in chilli oil - the wontons were great, topped with lots of garlic, but not spicy enough for our taste. The rice rolls with prawns was made with prawns that still had some shells on it which I hoped indicated freshness that it wasn't bought frozen. The crispy BBQ pork bun seemed to be a more modern approach to their menu, with a flaky white topping and a pastry-like skin underneath, but the main bun was doughy and the filling was juicy but a tad too sweet for me, I prefer the old style char siu bao (which we would have tried had we not been so full). The dish of kale was OK. Other items that looked great from others tables were stir fried noodles, spongy cake, and glutinous rice (a relatively large dish for only $18). Unfortunately they sold out of mango puddings and the split peas and coconut puddings weren't for sale because they weren't fresh enough. At least you have to give them a mark for being honest.
With just over 2 dozen dim sums and some rice and congee choices, you won't feel lacking in variety, and for the price and no service charge, this is a winner for a comfort meal.
