Probably the worst ban mian I’ve tried, and I don’t often have this dish. A miserly portion, lacking in both ingredients and flavour, wastefully served in a takeaway container and with disposable utensils even though I ate in.

Taste: 2/5
🍽️ Siu Mai $1.80 and Har Gao $2 @ Kimly Handmade Tim Sum
♨️ The Siu Mai is what you can expect from $0.60 a piece price point. It is considered really affordable. It taste like a dense meatball. Traditionally, the Siu mai will be topped with some fish roe, but given its price point, they used colour sago to replace it. Anyway that is just for decoration purpose, it will not really affect the flavour profile.
🍤 The Har Gao aka shrimp dumpling is a little disappointing. The skin is ok thin but the shrimp isn't fresh. The shrimp has broken into pieces within the dumpling itself instead of staying in one piece.
The one good point is the dimsum is served in the steam basket, so at least one of the main elements of having dimsum is still there.
