Trails of sign giving away a sprawling skyscraper HK in the Singapore high-end shopping mall are businessmen and men lugging takeaway packs of white with imperial jade stamps. That friendly emblazon we snuggle with TimHoWan. Through the course new conceptions for dim sum are sprinkled, into materials like beancurd roll, wanton, dace fish balls.
The 4 Heavenly Kings of Tim Ho Wan; if you hadn't heard of are inscripted with H. The char siew baked bun, its turnip cake, steamed Malay cake, and rice roll with pig's liver. The Baked Bun with BBQ pork has a sugary crispy crust and a sweet char siew interior.
There has never been such a tiny menu! Classics to hold its belt. Is this still a congee? Congee with Lean Pork, Century Egg & Salted Egg is chock full with ingredients the simmered rice is disappearing under the overwhelming ratio of half raw meat hunks and wobbly century egg and salty yolk.
Vegetable Beancurd Skin Roll with Wintermelon Sauce (SGD 4.00)
New Steamed Item which launched my ship. Tim Ho Wan is brave enough to pair red carrots, spinach and purple cabbages into a warm, tantalizing coleslaw. The transparent wintermelon sauce is like wine, whittling the rough edges of the coloured greens and tasting as beautiful as it looks.
Albeit heavy on the salt, shrimps are frequent on the menu if you are a shrimp|don't take shrimp person. {Prawn dumpling, pork dumping with shrimp.} The Dumpling Teochew Style has vegetables, carrots, and peanuts for a vegan surprise. {Tim Ho Wan} try harder next time(?). Wow us with magical shroom fountain or blue shoots.
P.S. Purples, oranges, whites and greens chopped and neatly packed into a circle, it is like a popiah made from a rare out-of-this-world winter wonderland.
