ShenZhen09 Day 3 Brunch: Dim Sum @ 广食访

.
On the third day of my stay, finally get to have dim sum. I have been craving for dim sum since the weeks and the months before coming to Shen Zhen. This dim sum place is quite far away from where housing area I stayed. Sis and I walked for about 30 mins to this restaurant called 广食访。Sorry for no pics on this building as it was raining cat and dog all day. I wasn’t able to capture photos with umbrella and handbags on.

This place was quite a full house even though it was already 12 noon. I learnt that a lot of people travelled from Hong Kong to Shen Zhen during the weekend --- to shop, to dine, to Yum Cha and even buying vege and stuff from the market! Sis said it is super convenient for them to travel up by the metro --- pass border, buy tickets, step into the metro and zooooom. And reach within 30 mins.

Back to 广食访, the service was rather slow and bad. Not enough staff and too many customers I guess. Do hope they will improve.





The Portuguese egg tarts that served were silky smooth in the egg centre and the puff pastry shells were crispy. Oh yum, I had not have such a good Portuguese’s egg tarts. Please don’t mention those from the kings, gonna delete it from my list. Of course, this is still not the best Portuguese egg tarts I had in Shen Zhen. There is another one I wish to intro on my next post which can simply melts ones heart.



糯米鸡 glutinous rice that served piping hot. They were wrapped with the big piece of lotus leaves before sending off to steam. The glutinous rice was real soft and filled with the scent of lotus leaves.


A bowl of hot porridge that warm my tummy in this cold weather. Speaking of weather, the weather was unstable although it was already summer. Cold and rainy all day. Sigh… which was quite inconvenient for sightseeing


Stirred fried Lo Bak Gou in XO sauce which was full with wok hei. Hmmm, I still find the one from canton-i is the best.


韭菜饺 Jiu-Cai-Jiao which is another must-order item. It was actually the dumplings that very much similar to the Japanese Gyoza. Difference: the centre core which was filled up with plentiful of leek and minced meat in Jiu-Cai-Jiao and wrapped up prettily into the shape required.


Last but not least, a plate of vege --- the required fibres for body.

My ‘Dairy’ need

Still afraid of the dairy products that produced from China after the Melamine cases that outbreak suddenly? Well, I am not. In fact, I feel the milk products are quite good. Ever since the melamine cases happened, the authorities have imposed stricter requirements and lab tests on them dairy products to ensure that the main ingredients and compositions are at the safety level.

I have a daily habit. I need to have a glass of milk or at least 250ml of milk every morning.
Hence, sis bought a carton (16 packs) of UHT milk to fulfill my ‘dairy’ needs. 蒙牛 Meng-Niu, brand of this milk is one of the famous brand.




The milk never lost its original taste. It tasted so Mooooooooo…

面点王 Mian-Dian-Wang is well-known as Chinese fast food chain in Shen Zhen. It is almost similar to those McD, KFC that appear everywhere; the only difference, 面点王 Mian-Dian-Wang serves Chinese Food rather than those fried and high calories pre-prepared food.


This is the only picture I have for their interior and environment around. I was prohibited from taking photo of their interior and deco. Guess they are a little blogger unfriendly. Here, you have to order straightly from the bar counter (something like self service as well). The chef and cooks will take order from you. There are a variety of dishes from appetizer to porridge to bao to vege to meat to dumplings to…




芝麻拌面 Zhi-Ma-Ban-Mian, Noodles with Sesame Sauce is always my all time favourite. The plentiful of sesame sauce on the noodles. There are 2 types of noodles to choose from --- normal or the wheat type. This time, I chose the wheat noodles that appear in brown. Ahhh, it was very jelly-liked and I took some times to chew the mouthful of noodles. I prefer the normal type noodles as it brought out the strong aroma of sesame sauce.



雪菜+木耳 Xue Cai and Black Fungus


金瓜粥 Pumpkin porridge --- the soothing one.


酱骨架 Jiang-Gu-Jia. It is actually the stewed pork ribs which have been stewed up to hours. The meat part is juicy, tender and flavourful. You will never want to stop from having them.




Well, it will be a little messy while you are having this. 面点王 is kind enough to provide the gloves.


Slurrrppp

My previous visit at面点王 years ago.

Hong Kong Miu Kai @ Seri Petaling

Craving for Polo Bun?! There is one place selling one of the best Polo Bun --- Hong Kong Miu Kai which is highly recommended by Sugar Bean. Located in Seri Petaling, Hong Kong Miu Kai is selling a variety of pastry besides serving food like the ordinary Char Chan Teng such as Wong Kok and Kim Gary.





Fresh baked Polo Bun(s). They are selling out like a piece of hot cakes. Wen Ching from Sugar Bean told me, she has been here for a few times and this was the second time she grabbed this. One advice from her, never come here after dinner as you will be going home with empty hands.

Look, there is a handful of custard as the core centre. Besides the custard flavor, they do have Yam (and others) too. The custard flavor is the best among all.
