Tim Ho Wan New Promotional Dim Sum Menu @Mid Valley - Hong Kong's Most Famous Dim Sum

NEW SENSATIONAL TASTE 

FROM TIM HO WAN MALAYSIA

Michelin Star Dim Sum Restaurant

New Range Of Mouth-Watering Promotional Menu

Famous for being the only Michelin-starred dim sum restaurant in Hong Kong, Tim Ho Wan Malaysia are delighting diners with new range of mouth-watering promotional menu for the month of Sept and October 2015.  

Honoured and privilege to be invited again, this time around to sample some of Head Chef Tang Kam Lit and Chef Hew Wai Leong latest new dim sum menu for this season. As dim sum is my top favourite food to eat, I was both excited and curious expecting interesting and innovative things in their menu. Well, you see I set a high benchmarked to eating dim sum from this Michelin-starred restaurant. You can view my 1st review: HERE     

Let's start off with "Best to Eat" in Auntie Lilly's recommendation. 

Cereal Chicken Nuggets

RM 15.80

Cereal Chicken Nuggets was a charming treat. A wonderful creation of tasty chicken thigh coated with a mixed of flour, deep fried to perfection and stir-fried with a concoction of fragrant 'Nestum' cereal, eggs and milk for the added flavour. This is one dish I cannot stop eating as sinful as is it being deep-fried item but seriously the chefs did an excellent job to creating this delightfully tasty indulgence. 

Salted Fried Fish Skin

RM 10.80

An appetiser from the new menu, the Salted Fried Fish Skin is exclusively available in Tim Ho Wan 1 Utama outlet. Crispy and well-flavoured, the fish skin are deep-fried before being topped with chilli flakes for the extra kick. Great snack as a starter before savouring the steamed dim sum for a change.

Quail Egg Siew Mai

RM 11.80

      

The Pork Dumpling with Shrimp, a traditional dim sum, better known as 'siew mai' was given a twist and served topped with quail egg, delicately decorated with black sesame seeds looking so cute and adorable. Delicate skin wrapping the firm prawn paste and tender steamed pork filling, the Quail Egg Siew Mai  was simply delicious to eat in just one bite! 

Steamed Fish Maw with Prawn Paste

RM 14.80

Another new favourite, Steamed Fish Maw with Prawn Paste makes quite an impression with its fresh and bouncy texture. Chef Hew added that the prawn are specially selected premium 'pink' prawns ordered for this particular dish. The prawn paste is manually minced or chopped, not machine-blended, so lots of hand-work goes into preparing this savoury morsels. Served on a slice of fish maw, both were winners for great flavour, getting the taste and texture right. 

Dumpling With Spicy Sauce

RM 15.80

Head Chef Tang keeps it traditional with serving steamed Dumpling With Spicy Sauce. The house made special spicy black vinegar sauce makes a whole lot of difference to the simple chive meat dumpling with its sourish and savoury flavour.

Freshly Baked Egg Tarts

RM 9.80 for 3 pieces

Leave some space in your tummy for their dessert with Tim Ho Wan's Freshly Baked Egg Tarts. Boasting of a buttery crust and a smooth, silky filling, each crumbly mouthful is just simply satisfying and delicious. Chef Hew explained this dessert was taken off the menu initially as the puff pastry requires lots of handworks, quite tedious to prepare so to say. But it came back due to popular demand from its diners.   

With its signature crispy and flaky shell and silky, creamy filling, the egg tart is a perfect dessert after an awesome finish after a delicious dim sum brunch.

Besides the new range of appetisers and mouth-watering dim sum menu, Tim Ho Wan has introduced new taste for 'Evening Specials Menu' from 5pm to 10pm daily. Let's check out the following noodles, rice and even double boiled soup to whet your appetite.

Chicken Soup With Chinese Yam & Wolfberry

RM 14.80

Tim Ho Wan introduction of nutritious and healthy herbal chicken soup was a good choice. Good to take this as a starter to soothe your tired soul after a hard day work in the evening before dinner. The double boiled soup consists of chicken feet, chicken, pork, soothing herbs like wolfberry and red dates for an absolute natural sweetness and tummy-warming soup.     

Wonton Noodles Dry

RM 15.80

Noodles eater like me was delighted to see wantan or wonton noodles in the new menu. Tim Ho Wan being a Michelin-starred restaurant in Hong Kong brought in famous noodles in Hong Kong to Malaysia shores for all to savour. Unlike our local wantan noodles, these imported noodles are springy thin, delicate yet al dente, hallmark of noodles houses in Hong Kong. Diners can opt to have the dry version or soup noodles (RM 15.80) which are served in a flavourful clear broth. 

Prawn wontons on the other hand, were a class of its own - fresh chunky prawns packed into a big ping pong sized dumpling that gave a tasty crunch on every bite. Since the prawn wontons come in 4 pieces per serving, one could always order their Shrimp Wonton Soup (RM 16.80) to satisfy one's hunger or just to indulge. By proportion the prices are higher than average, but this restaurant represents good value.

Braised Pork Knuckles Noodles (Dry)

RM 19.80

Next comes the noodles dish for the pork knuckles lovers. Chunky and tender plus juicy pork knuckles braised in a mildly flavoured black sauce with spices to perfection, served with the famous wonton noodles. Diners can also choose for the dry or soup version (RM 19.80) according to their personal preference but I suggest the dry noodles would be tastier as it soak-up the porky sauce making it a savoury dish to eat.

 Braised Pork Knuckles

RM 22.80

Hard-core fans of pork knuckles can simply order a bowl to himself and enjoy its his fullest with a price of RM 22.80.       

Crispy Noodles with Shredded Pork

RM 14.80

A simply yet delicious noodles dish comes with crispy noodles served with a bowl of flavoursome, thick sauce of shittake mushroom, bean sprouts, scallions, salted vegetable (char-choy) and shredded pork. Pour the tasty sauce over the noodles, let it soak in for awhile before savouring. 

Yang Zhou Fried Rice

RM 16.80

Well, if all the noodles or soup dishes doesn't entice you, maybe you can check out Tim Ho Wan's only rice dish in the menu. Served with whole prawns, char siew bits, chopped scallions, lettuce and topped with pork floss. Although it looks good and decent, but this dish lacks the wok-hei I always look for in any of my simple chinese fried rice. 

Home Made Longan Drink

RM 6.80

Instead of the usual Chinese tea to wash down after a dim sum meal, you can try their Longan drink. Boiled with lots of other ingredients such as the premium black longan for its natural sweetness and a special herb by the name of "Tai Hoi Lam", valued for its cooling properties. Good stuff, I drank 3 cups of this nutritious herbal drink to bring down the heatiness in my body due to the bad smog or haze.  

Tim Ho Wan will be introducing new and irresistible dishes throughout the year, bringing in more variety and choices for a gastronomical dim sum experience to its fans. Chefs recommendations menu will be available at their 2 outlets, served on rotational basis and diners can try them at their preferred Tim Ho Wan outlet during the different months.

New Sensational Taste of Hong Kong's 

Famous Dim Sum

Tim Ho Wan, Hong Kong's most famous Dim Sum Restaurant, has spread its delicious wings into Malaysia November last year, with its first outlet in Mid Valley Megamall, Kuala Lumpur. Now, Malaysian no longer needs to travel all the way to Hong Kong to enjoy the popular and authentic Hong Kong dim sum. Take a trip down to Mid Valley Megamall for an escapade to Hong Kong without having to fly 

Tim Ho Wan, Hong Kong Michelin Star Dim Sum Restaurant won the plaudits of food critics and hearts of epicureans around the world with its daily freshly made delicious dim sum.  

A Delightful Food Tasting Experience with 3 of Tim Ho Wan's Chefs 

I was totally thrilled when was invited to review Tim Ho Wan's new offerings of dim sum recently, many thanks to my fellow foodie blogger friend, Pamela Yeoh from Malaysian Foodie. A three new sensational taste sets to wow dim sum lovers with a new range of appetising promotional menu available from March 2015 onwards.

Crystal Shrimp Roll with Century Egg (水晶松花虾卷) 

RM 10.50

Top in my list is Crystal Shrimp Roll with Century Egg. Gourmet-heaven dim sum made to tantalize our taste buds, it's a silky wrap of clear rice dumpling filled with shrimp paste and topped with flavourful century egg, fish roe and asparagus. For finishing touch, the delightful dumplings were drenched in savoury abalone sauce.

    

Steamed Chicken with Fish Maw (北菇棉花鸡)

RM 11.50

Next brought to the table was a freshly Steamed Chicken with Fish Maw. Healthy treat for you to indulge on succulent and juicy, steamed-to-perfection chicken with fresh mushroom and soft fish maw in it silky abalone sauce. Truly a simple yet perfect combination of poultry with seafood, definitely enjoyable among the fish maw lovers. 

Signature Five Treasure (龙凤酿五宝)

RM 12.50

Last but not least, first to be presented and exclusively available in Mid Valley restaurant is the Signature Five Treasure. Savoury deep fried tofu, silky bean curd (foo chok), egg plant, red and green capsicum generously filled with shrimp and chicken paste enhanced with Chef's Signature in house made black bean sauce for added flavour. Colourful and delectable dim sum dish makes its way into the hearts of many dim sum lovers again!

We were also treated to Tim Ho Wan's famous and all-time-favourite ~ 'Four Heavenly Kings', namely Baked Bun with BBQ Pork, Vermicelli Roll Stuffed With Pork Liver, Pan Fried Carrot Cake and Steamed Egg Cake. These are the 4 dim sum picks definitely not to be missed when dining at Tim Ho Wan.

Baked Bun with BBQ Pork (脆皮焗叉烧包) 

RM 10.80 for 3 pieces

Crumbly and fluffy pork bun with the melt-in-the-mouth texture upon first bite makes a wonderful tasting experience with this unique pork bun. An interesting creation, moving away from the norm of typical Char Siew Pau, Tim Ho Wan modify the pau skin to a light base with slightly crunchy and crumbly pastry crust encasing the tasty sweet and saucy lean barbecue pork inside. 

 Sweet Savoury Barbecued Pork inside the fluffy bun

No one leaves Tim Ho Wan without getting a taste of the best sellers and to prove that point, Tim Ho Wan boasts of selling up to 15.000 plates or 45,000 buns per month from their restaurant alone. A Must-Try for any first timer to Tim Ho Wan! 

Vermicelli Roll Stuffed with Pig's Liver (黄沙猪润肠) 

RM 10.80

A different twist to the typically traditional  'Chee Cheong Fun' dish. The velvety texture vermicelli rolls were stuffed with pork liver which lends a gamey flavour. I'm not a great fan of pork liver, so I cannot really appreciate this interesting dish.

Pan Fried Carrot Cake (香煎萝卜糕) 

RM 9.80

Steamed Egg Cake (香滑马来糕) 

RM 7.80

This special Steamed Egg Cake was served steaming hot, comes with a light and spongy texture. Flavourful caramelised taste and not too overly sweet. I also found out that it takes 3 days of preparation for it to become soft and fluffy. 

Other menu mainstays include the Braised Chicken Feet with Abalone Sauce, Glutinous Rice with Lotus Leaf, Deep Fried Beancurd Skin Roll with Shrimp and many more.

Frankly speaking, Tim Ho Wan is not the place for having a tete-a-tete with family or friends where you can spend hours eating and chatting over tea and dim sum. Basically, it's a place to have a quick meal over some freshly made dim sum. pay up and leave as soon as you can, in order not to hold up the seats while seeing others queueing up outside at the restaurant. 

Anyway, fret not ~ Good news on the way as Tim Ho Wan is opening the 2nd outlet in Malaysia at One Utama Shopping Mall by the end of April 2015!
