Bamboo Shoots and Fresh Shrimp Dumplings (3 pieces)

Watching the Milk Flow (3 pieces)
Watching the Milk Flow: This is a type of custard bun with a thin skin and abundant filling. A gentle poke with chopsticks will cause the golden custard to flow out. The custard filling is fragrant, sweet, and smooth, and the appearance is also very cute.
A Basket of Eight Precepts (3 pieces)
A Basket of Eight Precepts: Cute-shaped char siu buns. The char siu buns are shaped like little pig heads, very cute. The buns are soft, and the char siu filling is perfectly balanced between fat and lean, with a sweet flavor.
Thousand Island Shrimp Rolls (3 pieces)
Thousand Island Shrimp Rolls: The shrimp rolls have a crispy exterior, with a bouncy shrimp paste filling, and the sweet and sour Thousand Island sauce can neutralize the greasiness of the shrimp rolls.
XO Sauce Stir-fried Shrimp Rice Noodle Rolls: Full of wok hei, the rice noodle rolls are smooth, the shrimp is fresh and bouncy, and the XO sauce is fragrantly spicy and appetizing.
Sichuan Dan Dan Noodle Soup: The soup base is spicy and flavorful, but not too hot, which is perfect for someone like me who can't eat very spicy food. The noodles are smooth and hold the sauce well, and there are crushed peanuts to add texture.

Hong Kong｜One of the most popular HK restaurants
YUM CHA (Central) ⭐️ Overall rating: 5/5 🍽 Recommendation: hot custard buns 💁 Service: Good 💰 £30 per person 📍 Location: Nan Fung Tower, 2/F, Nan Fung Place,, 173 Des Voeux Rd Central, Central, Hong Kong The restaurant is located in the central of Hong Kong and it is crowded with people during lunch time. The staff is kind and helpful. The dim sum in Hong Kong is better than what I have in London for sure. In addition, baked crispy pineapple puff is like birds and it tastes brilliant. Custard buns with salty eggs sauce are good! Please book in advance, or it is hard to find a table.
