Dim Sum @ Canton Paradise (Bedok Mall)

Went over to Canton Paradise at Bedok Mall yesterday for Mum's birthday feast part II...

The food we ordered...


First to be served is the Mango Prawn Roll... Not sure if the kitchen staff just take the frozen food out and immediately dump into slightly overheated oil, this dish looks a little too brownish.. and the inside fillings is ... at room temperature... which I eat about 1 minute after the dish was served... a bit disappointed... but looking forward to the rest... Taste wise is still not too bad...


The rest of the dishes came pretty fast... Clockwise from top: Mini Egg Tarts, Dry Wanton Mee, Crispy Char Siew Buns, Prawns Chee Cheong Fun... The mini egg tarts taste quite ok, nothing super special but relatively stable... The other 3 are amazingly good. The sauce for the wanton mee is above average from those typical sold in other places, very flavourful and savoury. The noodles are cooked to quite bouncy. Wanton is a bit small but nice. The crispy char siew buns have a '菠萝包' top skin and the inner char siew taste good too, though a little on the dry side. The prawns chee cheong fun is amazing, with a super nice and fragrance sauce. Dad says they use the light soy sauce mix with sugar and did not cook it, hence the fragrance of the sou sauce is not lost...


From top: Siew Mai, Pork Innards Porridge, Har Kaw. Again quite wonderful. Though not the best har kaw and siew mai we had tasted, these are certainly way above average compared to many. The porridge is amazing. The texture of the porridge itself is smooth and creamy, with the rice grains almost grind-ed/cut to tiny bits, and this type of porridge is my favourite... I remember my first time having this type of porridge is at Crystal Jade in Parkway Parade... This is the equivalent... Nice... Will love to return for more in the future, hahahaha....
