Yummy Dim Sum



Restoran Zim Sum is a very big non-aircon dim sum restaurant. It was already filled up with customers when we reached there at 9plus in the morning. We had to wait for seats. (@Penang-Malaysia)

Dim Sum is a undoubtedly popular for breakfast in Malaysia. The dishes are usually wheeled around on a trolley by servers. At this dim sum restaurant, we can pick and choose our favourite dim sum dishes at the counter.

I want this… I want that!

Dim sum dishes stack on top of one another. You pick and choose the dishes and return to your seat. The cashier will come to your table, count the plates and charge you accordingly.

A wide variety of dim sum dishes that are cooked by many methods such as deep frying or steaming. The serving sizes are usually small and served as three to four pieces in one dish. Because of the small portions, we can try many different types of dim sum.

Servers busily preparing dim sum for customers.

    @peteformation: Dim sum good but also fatty, unhealthy for supper!!! XD

    @Zara: Yes! I see some dim sum are halal and can even get from petrol kioks in Singapore. Hmm, as for restaurant, not that I heard of.

    @Sam: Nice to have dim sum, hmm but not too often! Fatty… u surely agree with me on that!

    @JH: How come? On diet? Or going for reservist? XD

    @Macky: You mean the “roll buns” covered with sesame? They are not buns, or rather, their skin is made of glutinous rice so the texture is a bit sticky. They are filled with soya bean paste and then deep fried. Another fattening dim sum dish with a sweet flavour!
