Come and savor, handmade, traditional dim sum favorites such as pork and shrimp siomai, char siu bao (steamed barbecued pork buns), hargaw or hakaw, or its own version of the xiao long bao or steamed siolong pao (Shanghainese style soup dumplings) to name a few. Reminisce as you indulge, and pick out your favorites, from the steam trolley service carts stacked with bamboo and metal steamers filled with dim sum widely considered, among the best in town.

Chow Buzz highly recommends that you come very hungry and order some of these must-try dim sum: shrimp and pork siomai, steamed siolong pao, fried mango shrimp rolls, steamed scallop dumplings, pan-fried duck meat buns, and for dessert; the steamed egg custard buns and baked coconut bun.
