[BAMBOO] NYC TRAVELOGUE : GOLDEN UNICORN RESTAURANT DIM SUM

It was definitely a must to visit Chinatown in NYC. And I finally got to eat some of my favourite Dim Sum dishes !! It is really rare to find dim sum on served from fast-moving carts and this is one of them.



Egg Custard Buns 黃金流沙包


Beef Offal 牛雜


Deep Fried Sesame Balls with Lotus Paste 蓮蓉煎堆


Mini Egg Tarts 迷你蛋撻

This place is the only place so far that I have found my favourite Mini Egg Tarts !! If it weren't because I was so stuffed, I would literally order plates after plates of them. Same goes for the Sesame Balls. It is really hard to find Sesame Balls with lotus paste in them as most places usually have red bean or peanut fillings which I find too sweet. The Egg Custard Buns were really rich and creamy. Of course we had a few other dishes but nothing to "wow" over.

[BAMBOO] HK TRAVELOGUE : TIM HO WAN 添好運

Tim Ho Wan is one of my favourite Dim Sum places to go besides Lin Heung in Sheung Wan. This place is famous for their BBQ Pork Buns which are the bomb.

添好運是我最喜歡吃點心的地點之一。當然,上環的蓮香居是我的至愛。我最喜歡就是添好運的酥皮焗叉燒包。有點像蓮香居的波蘿叉燒包。這間添好運位於香港機鐵總站最低一層。無論幾點都是爆滿的!





Carrot Cake 蘿蔔糕


Teochew Steamed Dumplings 潮州蒸粉粿


Steamed Green Chives Dumpling 鮮蝦菠菜餃



Baked Bun with BBQ Pork 酥皮焗叉燒包




Fresh Prawn Rice Rolls 鮮蝦腸粉

The dumplings are pretty decent and have a generous amount of fillings in them. The rice rolls were just the right thickness and flavourful. As for the BBQ Pork Buns, A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. 

添好運的餃子都算OK啦。腸粉不會太厚。最主要就是酥脆焗叉燒包好好吃啊。。。
