Tim's Kitchen, used to be a 2 stars michelin rating cantonese restaurant years ago, has since dropped its rating the last few years. Does it lose its edge? Or simply the competition is getting tougher due to higher expectation? Let find out from its weekend dim sum lunch.From the setting and decoration, it seems a outdated and shown its age already. There is a bit confusion at the reception as they mixed up with another reservation, but it is resolved quickly. We are sent to the second floor
From the setting and decoration, it seems a outdated and shown its age already. There is a bit confusion at the reception as they mixed up with another reservation, but it is resolved quickly. We are sent to the second floor, and they changed the table for us due to the uneveness of the table legs. Nevertheless, food quality is what we care the most. There are good variety of dim sum selection (around 50+ choices) and price is ranged from HKD 30 to 60. Today it is only myself and honey, so we just picked a few.
虾饺 Fresh shrimp dumpling - quite nice with good flavour. The skin is also nicely done as it is not so sticky and not too hard. It is definitely above average.
蟹皇烧卖 Steamed pork dumpling - nothing really special at all. Just average typical pork dumpling. The crab flavour isnt really there.
上汤鲜竹券 The bean curb skin roll with pork in soup - this is a bit disappointed as the flavour is really light. In addition, the bean curb skin should have been deep fried to maintain the texture when wrapped around the pork. Without doing so makes the whole texture disappear. It is a sloppy dish.
莲蓉煎堆仔 The deep dried dumpling with lotus seeds paste -perfect sweetness, and it is fried just right. Chewey but not hard. Very nice and thumbs up for this one.
甜菜带子叉烧粒炒饭 The fried rice with barbecue pork and scallops - the texture is ok with good flavour. However, it is slightly over done that makes the rice a bit too dry and hard. Also, the scallop doesnt really plays a role within the dish as it should have been with equal amount with the pork. Just so so overall in my opinion.
The sequence of dish serving is a bit odd as the fried rice comes very early before the dim sum dishes. I guess there is a reason why some restaurants cannnot sustain its star rating. I think Tim's Kitchen is still capable of offering great food but the overall package and service is definitely lacking behind some current star restaurants now. In hk, the culinary market is ultra competitive, and there are definitely many other restaurants similar to Tim's Kitchen. From its dim sum and fried rice quality, it is only ok and nothing really stands out and that would be my best assessment.
