4 plates of dim sum for RM10 sounded like a deal too good to miss. This restaurant is nestled along the Aked Esplanad stretch in Bukit Jalil. While enjoying your meal, you could even have your car washed across the street at the local car wash joint.
The entrance of the restaurant. Look out for the Esplanad Seafood Restaurant instead of Esplanad Dim Sum.
Woo Kok – the yam pastry was light and the filling sweet and tasty.
Fried carrot cake – alas, this simple dish was lackluster, probably due to the fact it was served cold.
Har gao – absolutely delicious! The skin was light and the fresh prawn boosted its delicate flavour.
Fish ball in beancurd skin
Char siew chee cheong fan – the steamed wrap was too thick and there was hardly any filling (char siew) in this dish. The accompanying shrimp chili sauce tasted very bland.
Siew mai – a good combination of flour and meat but instead of caviar for garnishing, there was this red jelly like pieces on top!
Fried fish ball – tasty with a tinge of spice from the chili inside
Steamed fish ball – made just right – light and spongy.
Teochew siew mai – a variant of the original siew mai with chives for flavour
Loh mai kai – glutinous rice never felt so grainy. There was a piece of chinese sausage, chicken and mushroom for garnishing.
Steamed prawn dumpling – an all-time favourite.
Overall, the restaurant’s fare was good as there was very little MSG. Service was prompt and efficient. Additional dishes can be ordered for a mere RM3.50 per plate. A pot of Chinese tea plus a bucket of ice costs RM4.00 and is paid separately.
