Tim Ho Wan

Tim Ho Wan
Plaza Singaura #01-29A
10am to 10pm (Mon to Fri) ; 9am to 10pm (Weekend and Public Holidays)

===========================================

After hearing the reports of extremely long queues and that it is a Michelin star restaurant, I was hoping to wait for the hype to sizzle down a bit before trying it.

At Tim Ho Wan, there are the Top 4 Heavenly Dim Sum:
1. Vermicelli Roll with Pig Liver - $5.50
2. Baked Bun with BBQ Pork - $4.50
3. Pan Fried Carrot Cake - $4.50
4. Steamed Egg Cake - $3.80

I love the Vermicelli Roll with Pig Liver ($5.50)  This is a new flavour that I have tried as this usually comes with either prawns or BBQ meat. The pig liver was soft and slightly reddish.

The Baked Bun with BBQ Pork ($4.50) is similar to a Po Lo BBQ meat bun. However, the meat used is large chunks char siew. This is more generous than the usual minced char siew served as most restaurants.

Pan Fried Carrot Cake ($4.50) is good if you like to taste the taste of the carrots. It goes well with the chilli sauce with bean paste.

And finally, steamed egg cake ($3.80) . The texture is soft and fluffy. You can also taste the gula melaka. Prior to this, I do not really fancy this dish at a dim sum place as it is bland and tasteless.

One thing that I liked about this Tim Ho Wan is that it provides styrofoam boxes and paper bags for you to pack your favourite items home. If you are a small eater and likes variety, this is really the place to go!

Will I come back?

Yes, but maybe in a few weeks time as I went to Tim Ho Wan twice in a single week.
