Ah Feng Good Food Recommendation - Dim Sum

Dim Sum @ Victor's Kitchen

Prelude

Previously working as a chef at a HK restaurant, the Boss decided to strike out on his own and found a cozy corner for his eatery at Sunshine Plaza.

The Dim Sums

Prices range from $3-$4.

The famous dish here will be the steamed carrot cake. The taste of radish is strong with bits of la chang and chicken, topped with soy sauce which is salty with a tinge of sweetness. Its served with the chef's specially prepared XO sauce that is in popular demand by most elderly folks and selling for $12.50 per bottle. The chef claims that he needs to import certain ingredients over from HK to prepare the sauce. Personally, it did not really go down too well as it's pretty oily.

But I have to mention the siew mai and ha gao are comparable to HK restaurants standard. The chef does not scrimp on the ingredients used and there's a whole prawn in each siew mai. The prawns are fresh and succulent.

The lotus leaf rice isn't too bad either, with chunks of chicken meat, mushroom, scallop bits and la chang. It's fresher than the restaurants' as the latter's are kept in the freezer and only brought out to steam upon order. This is evident as the rice doesn't stick to the leaf at the base.

Yum Yum

I also ordered chee cheong fan (rice rolls), fu pi juan (fried beancurd skin) and ji si pi dan zhou (chicken century egg porridge). All didnt disappoint. Good value for money.

Total bill was $23 for 2.

So maybe you guys can let me know when you all are free and we can go down for a feast.

On my way there, i passed by a shop opposite Bencoolen Centre selling mang guo bing aka Jolin eating that one in the Taiwan Advert. Looks not bad from the outside, maybe we can go over for desserts after that.
