    Price as low as Rm1.80 per tray. Very good dim sum in pg. This is a self service dim sum shop. Got to queue and order and refill your own teapot. Avoid lou sa bao, the rest of the dishes taste perfect

    Their Dim Sum is good, especially the Siew Mai. Porridge with Century Egg is good too. Not to forget their Egg Tarts, where all 3 variants, the Original, Pandan and Coconut Tarts tastes heavenly good!

    Must try the Egg Tart, Liu Sha Bao and Hong Kong Style Chee Cheong Fan. P.S: Chicken Leg (also good to try)

    Very popular dimsum joint. Get a table , wait for the waitress to get your drink order, she will hand you an order chit after that. Use that to get whatever you would like to eat from the counters

    Year 2022. The quality have DECREASED a lot. Everything is frozen products. Cannot compare with all these previous years.

    This is one of the best dim sum house yet; most of the usual dishes are up to notch but it is definitely on a pricey side.

    A lot of selection. Come early to get a better aselection of dim sum. As chinese proverb goes, early bird always have worm to eat.

    Fairly good dimsum. Has a wide selection to choose from. The only downside is the food gets rather cold when you reach your table.

    Staffs were busy chit chatting at the corner in front us and none of them realized we have our hand raised and calling them for more than 15 mins, just to order our tea and get our order card.

    good dim sum, fast due to self service nature. unfortunately don't serve the good chili sauce, they only have the sweet chili sauce type.

    Used to have good dim sum. But the quality was drop like hell when we revisit. The prawn is soggy and we order "xiang pian" tea. The tea is taste very bitter & don't have "xiang pian" taste at all.

    It's better to come during the time when they serve you at the table with the cart. the counter service offers food which was not that heated. Food is good thou

    I went to a black shop. Price is different compare to the price board. Poor customer service also. Before I finish my lunch, the cashier come and chase us to pay the bill. I will never visit again
