This traditional sponge cake is soft, light, and has a subtly sweet, caramelised flavour. Its signature golden colour and spongy texture make it stand out, and unlike Western sponge cakes, it’s steamed rather than baked! Have you had the chance to try it? 🤩

One of the most popular dishes on our Dim Sum menu is Shanghai Soup Dumplings, also known as Xiaolongbao!

Originating from Nanxiang, a suburb of Shanghai, during the mid-19th century, these delicate dumplings were initially created as a street food snack. They gained popularity due to their unique preparation and delicious taste. The name “xiaolongbao” means “little basket bun” and what sets them apart from other dumplings is their signature broth.

This is achieved by adding gelatinised meat broth to the filling, which then melts during steaming, creating a soup inside the thin, doughy skin. The filling typically consists of minced pork, though variations with other ingredients are also popular!

This dish is a must-try for anyone exploring the world of Dim Sum. Have you tried them? 🥟🥟

03/08/2024

We have limited space for walk-ins this afternoon between 12 noon and 1pm (last seating) due to a private event today at the restaurant!

We will however be back open this evening from 8pm if you would like to join us for dinner 🍚🍜🥢

Delight in our classic Siu Mai, tender and juicy pork dumplings accented with prawns, fish roe, and fragrant Chinese mushrooms. Each dumpling is steamed to perfection and bursting with flavour, making them a must-have dish for any Dim Sum meal 🥟

Dish history:

Siu Mai, is a traditional Chinese dumpling said to originate from the Yuan dynasty (around 700 years ago). Its name translates to “cook and sell,” reflecting its roots as a popular street food. Siu Mai became a staple in Cantonese cuisine, particularly in the bustling teahouses along the Silk Road and over time, it has become a beloved dish, celebrated for its simplicity and versatility.

We know how much you LOVE our Dim Sum, so over the next few weeks, we’ll be spotlighting some of our most popular dishes. Who knows, maybe you’ll discover a new favourite to try on your next visit! 🥟✨

Today we’re starting off with one of our favourites- egg tarts, or “dan tat,” as they’re also known. They are a scrumptious Dim Sum treat with a rich history. Originating from Hong Kong in the early 20th century, these golden delights were inspired by English custard tarts and Portuguese pastel de nata.

Here’s how they’re made:

🥄 Crust: A flaky, buttery pastry that’s light and crisp.

🍳 Filling: A creamy, sweet custard made from eggs, sugar, and milk.

Baked to perfection, these egg tarts are a perfect blend of texture and flavour and when coming out freshly baked, they’re always so tasty! Have you tried this iconic treat? 🍮
