In fact, I have known this place for quite a long time. Located on the same row as the much hyped Sanbanto and KTX Food, I noticed a lot of patrons dining there everytime I passed by the shop. So one fine Saturday, Jenn & I made our way here as parking was definitely easier. The shop is divided into smoking (alfresco) and non-smoking (air-conditioned) areas.
The interior was simple and bright and most importantly, air-conditioned! Perfect place to bring Sher Ryn (who sweats easily like her dad) here.
We tried variety of dim sum selections not available elsewhere, starting with Honey BBQ pork bun or char siew bao to the Chinese. Not bad although I still prefer Jin Xuan's version.
Sesame golden - the aromatic smell of sesame and black sesame seeds used proved irresistable!
Prawn dumplings - fresh prawns but not in the best of shape. I like to see the skin intact when they served this dish.
Sharkfin dumplings - hmmmm... I didn't notice the shark fin though!
Bacon roll - my favourite order of the day! However, it'd be perfect if they didn't put the mayonnaise on top of the bacon. Sinful but I love it!
Sze Chuan fried turnip cake with leek - not bad but not spicy enough despite using dry chilly to prepare this dish!
Vietnamese crispy fried rice with crispy prawn cracker bits - lack wok hei but I love the crispy cracker bits everytime I took a bite. Prawns were fresh too!
Jasmine tea @ RM1.60 per person
Leo's verdict - At the time I wrote this post, their limited time promotion of RM2.98++ and RM3.98++ for selected dim sum items should be over! Their selection of dim sums are unique compared to some of the bigger dim sum places out there. Price-wise it was reasonable and service was attentive. I'd reckon that this place worth a visit!

Well the bacon certainly sounds tempting! :D
wats with the new disclaimer?
yes there too many dim sum places, if not i wouldnt have not visited since almost coming here almost 2 yrs ago!
ya lor, they shouldn't take the liberty of adding mayonnaise to the bacon roll. if at all, it should be in a separate saucer. nice place, though.
Nice!
I lke small places like these compared to the Hong Kee & Jin Xuan really. So generic one their dim sum ;(
