Ok so my IG and FB wall was bombarded with post about this so called famous
Michelin Star Dim Sum Restaurant, and being the foodie that I’ am I went to
Megamall to check it out. (Well.. since I heard that this is really a good
place for dim sum I thought they’d be serving Ham Soi Kok so I decided to go..
I go cray cray over Ham Soi Kok)
It was craaaaaaaaaaazy! :) Went there a day after it opened, was at the mall
at around 10:35 AM and at that time we were 18th on queue. We had to wait till
12:00 PM because that's the time that they would open. This would be the second time
I’d go in a queue that long to get food. First would be the J.Co Craze then this but
it was all sooooooooooooo worth it. SUPER WORTH IT. : )
 |
| Finally got seated. That queue though.. |
 |
| Love that Bamboo Steamer looking lights <3 |
 |
I heard they flew in Chinese Chefs for Tim How Wan's opening I wonder if he's one of them.
Dear good sir bring me some pork buns please ;) |
|
|
 |
| Le Menu| |
First thing I looked for was Ham Soi Kok and I must admit I got disappointed
that they didn’t have it in the menu but the Pork Buns took away my sadness..
;)

The Legendary Pork Bun
Got this for FREE!!!! |
Ok. So .. I didn’t really get people who were raving about
Tim Ho Wan’s Pork buns until I got a taste of it. Tears of Joy fell after the
first bite. It was like when I first encounter Wai Ying’s Ham Soi Kok… It was
love at first bite x 10. It was one of those Heaven on Earth Moments.. At that
moment I finally understood.Plus my first was free ^__^

People who lined up to get in Tim How Wan went cray cray over the Pork Buns.. But who wouldn't?! Some of them even brought along plastic containers to store their dim sums as the restaurant doesn't have take outs yet. They have the brown paper bag and thats it. I was so surprised at the couple beside our table their table was full of the porkbuns and and when I looked back its was gone in 60 seconds. I thought to myself.. was it that good that they it ate it that fast?! Haha and then the 2nd batch of their orders came and I noticed the girl stashing the buns in paper bags. Smart. :) But the guy that was infront of us when we were waiting outside was smarter he brought in some microwavable containers to stash his goodies! :)
