黑社会 @ VivoCity dim sum is pedestrian at best..I only like their 流沙包 which is my favorite amongst all in Sinkapor..their Peking Duck is crispy but its not a dim sum dish..so to speak

 

Royal China @ Raffles Hotel has above average dim sum but the service is lacklustre & sluggish

 

Lei Garden @ Chijmes is above average in dim sum and excellent in service

Thanks. Will try Lei Garden next. I only had a department lunch there once very long ago.

 

So far i like Royal China the most. But convenience wise, i usually eat Peach Garden.

Personally my fav are wah lok. Lei garden.

 

These 2 still the best and most consistent

 

I like wah lok's glutinous rice. Other than that, everything else not bad only.

Yan Teng at St Regis. Not only nice, but look aesthetically pleasing as well.

quite good but not really value for money I feel.

halal dim sum just doesn't cut for for me.

 

Char siew isn't char siew if it isn't made from pork. Chicken siew mai just tastes weird too...

Any reviews on Asia Grand Restaurant @ Odeon Towers?

Beijing duck is one of the best I had - $38 ++

My folks say the fish foe & crab glutinous rice is also very good - middle $45++

Ordered a wanton noodle for my boy, can say one of the better ones out there.

The best dim sum dish, goose liver dumpling.

I got it! We lost the art of dimsum because we no longer enjoy it at our own sweet time.

 

Dimsum is supposed to be eaten stress free. Not worrying if CTE would be jammed or if you can find a car park lot at Ngee Ann City. Or even a table after you've made your reservations. And the crazy crowd on weekends just drives it over the limit. Bad service, busy waiters. Eating dimsum is no longer enjoyable.

 

I suppose a leisurely, own sweet time dimsum at most places will be very enjoyable. Right, this is what i am going to do in the next few weeks. A weekday morning dimsum.

Anyone tried before in west coast recreation centre?

If you are referring to the restaurant right next to the carpark, I remember it was so-so only (no cravings thereafter!). Price was reasonable.

 

It is more seafood than tim sum.

i doubt you can find such places for leisure enjoyment, not even in HK.

 

but then the dim sum place here mostly open 10-11am, not 8am (except for that 24-hour one) [:(]
