Tim Ho Wan Dim Sum
We started day 1 with a Dim Sum feast at the most talked about dim sum restaurant along Shim Shao Pao street. We took a walk from.our hotel and got a little lost but it was well worth it.
Dim Sum is definitely a must have in Hong Kong. Don't be surprised with the limited variety of dim sum in Tim Ho Wan but you would not mind having the sane type again and again . It is really good.
If you need the address, it is on the menu card above.
The pan fried radish cake was simply divine. It was not oily, lightly fried with chunks of radish and slight hints of dried prawn. No flavour was overpowering and everything was just nice.
For a person who hates porridge, I would say hats off to the pork and century egg congee. The serving was big and was shared among 3 of my family members.
My favourite was the baked char siew pau
My ohhh my.. fantastic. It was freshly baked, piping hot with the sweet filing of char siew...yummy
The chee cheong fun had the most fullfilling fillings. That is a mouthful..literally...haha
Both the "siu mai" and "har kow" (prawn dumplings) were really good. As you can see, before I could take a photo, one piece went missing. It was filled with fresh and plump prawns.
I forgot what these spring roll looking are called but it was basically egg and prawns wrapped in beancurd skin. Not too bad but was not by favourite.
And finally, my favourite was the stewed pork ribs Juicy, thick meat over the bones, with a little bits of fat, was a mouthful of flavours.
Tim Ho Wan should be one restaurant that you should not miss but just be beware if you are a non Cantonese or Mandarin speaker, be ready to use sign language.
