Asia Grand Restaurant
>> Tuesday, May 18, 2010
Had a dim sum lunch at Asia Grand Restaurant located at Odeon Towers.
Har Gao - the skin was quite soft; better than what I had at Dim Joy in my opinion.
Siew Mai - the insides were quite 'solid', and you can feel the pieces of meat.
Beef Rice Rolls - I thought that the skin was not soft enough, and I think prawn still goes best in rice rolls.
Fried Shrimp Dumpling - the usual here; nothing extraordinary.
Steamed carrot cake - I prefer this version which is more paste-y, as opposed to the julienne radish version at Dim Joy.
Beef Balls - I kinda like this, although the presence of coriander inside might turn some people off.
I cannot remember the name of this, but its skin was a chewy texture and the insides were filled with marinated meat and mushrooms.
Steamed BBQ Pork buns - these were tasty and fluffy - what you would expect from Hongkong-styled buns.
Fried Banana & Shrimp - I remembered eating something similar at a restaurant called Oriental Restaurant in Bedok when I was young, and I loved it. But I think the texture of this skin was not to my liking.
Saw good reviews of their custard bun. Their version here is actually a Pineapple Bun with custard inside.
However, their custard was way better than Dim Joy's, and did not have the sugary feel to it.
