Hong Kong’s Most Authentic DIM SUM Experience!

Wow, so it's packed with people right now. It's full house today even though it's just early in the morning. So let's find a seat. So we are seated with other person right now because yeah it's full house, packed with people. And then they gave us a ticket right here. So with this ticket you just point at the dim sum that you want on the cart later on. Then they'll take it on the ticket and then this will serve as your receipt for when checking out. So here's the push cart. You just point on the food that you want. So they push the push cart towards your table. Then she takes off the receipt. All right thank you. For the start of our meal let's eat some tea. We got some jasmine tea here. So we got some fish balls and then some sort of glutinous rice with chicken. Let's try the fish ball first. Wow Bouncy, soft. It's very flavorful. Wow. And here we got the glutinous rice with chicken. Get a piece. Let's try the rice first. Sticky glutinous rice and it has some, I think the aroma from the, I think it's some sort of a radish leaf. And then we have the chicken. Juicy soft chicken. A little bit hit of ginger. So here comes another cart. So the food goes out really fast. You need to be quick. Just call the cart lady. So we also got another kind of cart that sells pastry and then some sort of spring roll and some fried stuff. Also we got some kind of a beef tendon over here. Wow. First time trying this kind of flavor. Savory and then the ginger flavor here is a little bit mild but it hits the point every time. We also ordered some spring roll. Spring roll is a little bit oily and then the skin is a little bit thick. This one is pretty simple. It's a plain porkiness and shrimpiness. There's nothing unique about this. But still pretty good. Here we got some sort of a dumpling. Oh wow. It is a glutinous rice wrapper but the glutinous has a little bit of sweetness in it. And then a savory filling with a strong shrimpiness. Strong dried shrimp taste. Another famous Hong Kong dish. Steamed scarabs. Savory and a little bit sweet scarabs. In that signature fermented black bean. So here just right beside the alleyway inside the restaurant wrapping up some dumplings. Some dim sum. Yeah that's a pretty nice thing to see. We're heading back to our table. Just got some some sort of a dim sum. Wow so people are actually fighting for the food here. So I have no choice but I had to get the food by myself and then just bring the ticket up and then they'll give you the food. We also got some shumai. Also got some shumai. Yeah it's a war zone out there. Here's our shumai. The famous shumai here in Lok An Kui or the Liu An Ji. Let's try the shumai. Very plump shumai here. Inside there are actually some big big pieces of shrimp inside. So this is the one that they are wrapping up a while ago inside the kitchen. The bingkard roll. It's also one of my favorite dim sum. Let's try it out. Shrimp and pork filling. The bingkard roll is a little bit chewy, soft, delicate. Absorbs the juice. I think they put some sort of sauce here. I think it's a oyster sauce. Yeah really good. So now let's try the radish cake. The whole thing is flavorful. Like the other radish cake that I ate, maybe there's some taste here or there. But this one, the whole one, the whole radish cake is flavorful. So you can see auntie over here, she's cooking up some of the radish cake. Wow. So not only radish cake, they also got some kind of, I think some meat wrapped in vegetable. Here we got the hakao. Wow. I've been eyeing for this since a while ago. Hi guys. We got our hakao guys. Wow. So this is our hakao. Freshly steamed hakao. Straight from the steamer. Still pretty hot. You can see the smoke. You can see the steam. Get a piece. Oh my god. I just took a nibble. Then I tasted. They were smoking from the hakao. This hakao has some shrimp in it. I can taste some crunchiness. I think they put some bamboo shoots in it. Wow. Very savory. Very bouncy. The shrimp is so bouncy. So for dessert, we got some Hong Kong egg tarts. The crust is actually different from the Portuguese egg tart. The crust is falling apart. But yeah, the filling is a little bit the same, but this one's creamier. So the crust here is more like a pie. It doesn't break apart, but it crumbles apart. Wow. This place is so busy. It's so noisy. It's so busy. It really feels like a local place in Hong Kong. This got to be one very special experience. To dine in a local restaurant, in a local yangcha restaurant with the locals, and try their delicious dimsums. So this is our seat right now. We got some stamps from the dimsum that we got from the carts. Wow. So our total bill is HK$555. It's a little bit expensive, but yeah, it's all for the experience. And then they also charge for, I don't know, they charge for some sort of fee. Like per person, they have a HK$16 charge. I think it's for the tea. Look at the selections of barbecue meat inside.
