930am: 锦选点心 Jin Xuan Hong Kong Dim Sum at Damansara Jaya
As usual, i had a bad habit being late for the early gathering, luckily yew nian had saved me from being the latest one =) It's my first time there, hence did a google map search at the night before and it's a relief for leading me there correctly this time. Perhaps, i should get a GPS device soon. Well... appreciative and glad that dim sum are ready to be served once i am seated, thanks to my frens being there earlier to queue for seats (paiseh also la.....) because it is really packed with people. It's better to sit inside to stay cool whilst savoring the selection of dim sum from sitting outdoor with the scotching sun.
I think variety of choices is the selling point there from dim sum to buns, pastries, pork ribs, fried radish cakes and mango pudding desserts. For sure we could not taste all kinds of them, but I would say the delicacies that we had tried and thought it should not be missed out are:
1. Butter Cream Bun (Lao Sah Bao)
The best butter cream bun i had ever tasted! A bite of it will get your mouth squeezed in the enticing fragrant yummy butter creams. One is really not enough! (One basket is served with 2)
2. Sweet Sour Bacon fish-meat-ball Roll
This delicacy is quite flavorsome 重口味. The fish-meat-ball rolled with tempting roasted bacon slice in succulent sweet sour sauce is so damn appetizing!
3. Crispy stick of mixed scallop, salted egg yolk and char siew.
I would say it is so new and special to me. Not Oily, Not too flavored and totally not bad-tasted at all... very nice!
I would say please don't order the steamed dim sum which is made of fish ball, they are not really fresh with slightly fishy smell. The rest of the dim sum are normal and not really tasted with surprises. Frankly, the price there might be costly compared with others, which there is also service and tax charges with the total bil came to RM108, but the dining ambiance is comfortable as well as their services is quite good... our ordered food is served very fast in seconds and the waiters will come to check and refill your pot of chinese tea quite often.
Nevertheless, a short reminder here to try the cream butter bun if you happen to go there... you will have no regret! It's indeed a pleasant Saturday morning to meet up my uni frens - weiyi, chinhing, hooiping and yewnian for this great fulfilling breakfast.
*Uh, it's so hard to blog about food... have to brain-squeeze for adjectives*
