One of my favourite cheap and nice dim sum places!

However, if i gotta name my favorite dish here, this will be it!!! carrot cake with XO sauce. the carrot cake is soft ans tasy. together with the XO sauce it is plain heaven!! A must try dish!

Also, the siew mai here is very fresh, without the "smelly pork" smell. very yummy! it is my second fav dish!.

However, the staff here can be quite fierce. dont really like their service but im still here for the good food. Also, i will advise you guys to go before evening time as some of the food might be sold out after evening.. then u will be missing out the good stuffs!

Liu sha bao is one of those things I can eat anytime, any day. I've tried many, many versions from different restaurants, but the one at Victor's Kitchen will forever be #1 to me.It's 3 pieces for I think $4+. The reason why I like it? It's boasts an additional layer of pure butter. If you slowly open the bun up, you will see the layer of butter just floating there, together with the custard paste. So good!

Say hello to the cute little custard buns from Victor's Kitchen! There is something special about the custard buns here. Personally, I felt that as compared to the ones i ate from other places, the custard buns here doesn't have a very strong taste of the salted egg yolk but rather they have a more buttery taste to it. It's quite unique as it has more of a sweeter taster rather than the typical salty taste in other custard buns. I would definitely recommend this to people who like butter taste

I would definitely recommend this to people who like butter taste and also people who don't like the taste of salted eggs. Hahha what's more, the fillings of the custard buns here will ooze out the moment you bite into them!

Super shiok when you eat them! Do give it a try when you are at Sunshine Plaza! My friend and I also ordered other dishes like century egg porridge, steamed carrot cake, chee cheong fun with char siew and my favourite chicken feets.

The porridge was good while the chicken feet and chee cheong fun was so-so only! Hahaha apparently their steamed carrot cake was also one of their signature dishes but I personally think it was okay only! maybe because I prefer the normal fried carrot cake! Overall the food was not bad and affordable but i think i will only come for the custard buns next time!
Anyway the queue is quite long during lunch hour time and we waited for like 20mins before we get a small table!

The place is quite small and squeezy as they tried to squeeze in as many tables as possible to accommodate more ppl so I find it a bit hard to eat properly! Haha so do try to reach there before lunch time so that you can get better seats
p.s. There is this angsty uncle working there and he can get a bit impatient when ordering and serving due to the crowd!!

Actually... this is not going to be much of a food review but just a post raving about my favourite food ever. I've been here countless of times, and every single time I walk away with a satisfied stomach and a smile on my face.
Found this place for the first time in 2010, I think. And no other dim sum place could contend against it.

What to order at Victor's Kitchen? I've come up with my own list after going for so many times. It could be quite a painful process in face of so many choices so here is a quick help list.

To-Die-For list: You absolutely have to order include their custard buns (at about two buns per pax will be a good gauge), har gow, BBQ pork buns and the Hong Kong Summer Ying Yang Tea (see below!). If you only have enough money for one dish, go for the custard buns.

Pretty-Good list: If you are itching for more dimsum, you can try their siew mai, spinach dumplings, fried prawn dumplings, glutinous rice and phoenix claws. Not spectacular but solid good dimsum.

I can't be entirely biased and say that their whole menu is good either. You are kindly advised against these -

Not So Good list: Chee cheong fun is average at best, you can eat better ones at hawker centres. The carrot cake (XO or not) is also quite awful in my opinion, do not try it unless you are feeling adventurous. It had no bite to it at all, a mess of mashed up... carrot cake. Leave that stomach space for something better. There are people who liked both the chee cheong fun and carrot cake (as seen by reviews below and elsewhere), but I don't like it.. so try it at your own risk.

Essentially thick, good ol' honest milk tea. Love it!

Warning:
Victor's Kitchen is packed to the brim most of the time and the best time to visit it is 3 - 4pm on weekdays. Be prepared to wait up till 45 minutes at peak hours even with only 2 pax. This is also not the most glam place to eat at. The tables are arranged school-canteen style and you will be sitting back-to-back, shoulder-to-shoulder with fellow diners. But all in the name of good food, I'll be back.

Pricing:
On my hungriest days, I paid around $15/pax. That's about 5 - 6 dishes and a drink.

If you haven't been to this place... you've been missing out on a lot. Get yourself there for your next meal now!

Another warning, Victor's Kitchen is known to close shop at erratic times even during its official opening hours. Have a Plan B ready on-hand - there's always Nan Xiang Restaurant (Bugis Junction), Man Fu Yuan (Intercontinental Singapore) and Asia Grand Restaurant (Odeon Towers beside Raffles City) for a quick dimsum fix nearby.

Officially, Victor's Kitchen is closed on Mondays, and open from 11am to 8pm on Tuesdays to Sundays. If you estimate yourself to reach at 7.30pm, get your Plan B ready... 5pm on weekdays should be a safe bet.

The custard bao is a must-order whenever I visit the place. The custard flow out of the bao when its cuts open and its about a spoon full. It will be great if the bao were made smaller and you can pop into your mouth but I think it will cost more.

I had been craving cheap dim sum and custard buns for the longest time, so I went down to where I could definitely satisfy those cravings- Victor's Kitchen! While the appearance of this little store might lower expectations, I found that their food is still yummy, especially for the relatively cheap prices. Of their dishes, I think that most of the traditional dim sum did not disappoint; the siew mai and feng jiao (chicken feet) were really good, and the glutinous rice wrapped in a lotus leaf was fragrant and sticky, just the way I like it. However, the main star of the place was the custard buns. Crisp to the touch, yet oozing yellow goodness when broken open, the custard buns are amazing. The custard filling is sweet without sugary clumps in them, and compared to other buns with cold and solid blocks of custard, Victor's Kitchen's custard buns are piping hot and the custard really flows.

All in all, Victor's Kitchen reminds me of an old Hong Kong dim sum place; a small, crowded, slightly dilapidated restaurant that serves good food.

Located in one of the quiet corners at the ground floor level of Sunshine Plaza, this hidden find was nestled among a few other small restaurants. With newspaper clippings plastered all over their glass shopfront, it seemingly gave an assurance that their dim sum were good or way commercialized.

Dim Sum which was usually associated with yum cha (drinking of tea) originated in the days of the Silk Road. Drinking of tea was thought to aid in digestion for the meals and was henceforth introduced to complement dim sum. Enjoyed typically as a morning-after-exercise meal for the elderly, our families however only dined on it on our weekend family day.

The high amount of saturated fat and sodium in most dim sum dishes suggested it being a snack or tea-time meal. Meant to touch the heart in the form of a light treat and not a hearty meal, the conventions of modern dining however spelt a whole new experience. It was our first time in having dim sum for dinner and being a planned trip down to Victor's Kitchen, we were really looking forward!

Seated at a corner perusing the simple menu, posters such as Great Buns and strikingly yellow. Must definitely drew our attention to their famous Liu Sha Bau, i.e. salted egg custard bun. Let us find out if Victor's Kitchen has the perfect ooze factor indeed!

(+) Enjoyed the slightly sweet initial taste accompanied by a salty aftertaste.

(+) Molten state of the filling was slightly gritty and offered a varied mouthfeel

(+) Fluffy, soft plain bun helped highlight the thick rich filling.

(-) Took some effort to juggle the molten custard in the bun to prevent it from spilling.

(-) Was good, but definitely not as good as acclaimed and described.

(-) The poster showed it was cheapest at S$3.50, guess not anymore.

I have always thought that a dim sum chef should be assessed on 3 simple yet intricate dishes, namely har gao, siew mai and lo bak go. Classically the must-haves when one dines for dim sum, we certainly could not do without!

(-) The prawns inside were neither crunchy nor soft, wasn't sure what was the intended taste supposed to be.

(-) The dumplings were not well wrapped, one of it had the skin burst open.

(-) The skin of the dumpling was soft and thin but too sticky, leaving remnants at the teeth.

(+) Soft and juicy siew mai but really nothing too spectacular to rave about.

(-) Largely disappointed as it was nowhere close to the Queen Size stated in the menu.

(-) Considering this was one of their signature dishes, I was expecting more.

(-) Minimal amount of fish roe on the top surface.

(+) Good mix of flavours, giving a very tasty spoonful for it was so soft.

(+) The XO sauce kicked in after a while and could feel the warmness growing in the body.

(-) It was so soft that it was mashy, which was not quite what we expected.

(-) XO sauce was barely evident in taste, tasted more like mere soy sauce.

(-) Did not taste any scallops in the carrot cake too.

(-) Recommended as a signature, this was a complete disappointment.

(-) Rice was not fragrant enough and relatively hard.

(-) Only 1 piece of Chinese sausage was found, as big as a section of your finger.

(-) Broken, loose and pathetic amount of chicken pieces, it was mostly rice.

(+) I enjoyed the slightly varied texture in the cheong fun, with a light crisp surface.

(-) However, the inside of the cheong fun was not soft enough.

(-) Failed to bring out the much desired contrast in texture and mouthfeel.

(-) Sadly, not the authentic H.K style, especially the sauces.

(-) Lack of chili and peanut sauces for the real authentic deal.

(+) Like above, it was only freshly fried upon order, very crispy.

(+) Crunchy shrimps inside offered a very delectable bite to the crispy skin.

(-) Once again, too oily for my personal preference.

(-) Tasted some of the flour, maybe the skin was too thick or uneven mixture?

(-) We were served vinegar as accompanying condiments instead of mayonnaise, though was replaced after we requested.

In the mood for a cha chang teng H.K dining experience, we opted for the traditional drinks typically offered.

(+) Unique way to maintain the coolness of the tea without diluting it.

(-) The milk tea was not fragrant, rich nor smooth enough.

(-) Tasted like 'milk-milk tea'.

(-) Certainly overpriced for the quality served.

100% H.K. Style Hot Ying Yang (Coffee mixed with Tea)

(+) Tasted rich and fragrant and not overly sweet.

(+) Adjusted to my liking for I told them not to add any sugar.

When it comes to dim sum, we have an exceptionally high standard for it is one of our favourite dining options. That being said, we were rather disappointed with our visit to Victor's Kitchen. The lack of typical must haves such as egg tarts and char siew sou aside, most of their signature dishes failed to deliver to our expectations apart from their liu sha bau and their fried dishes (which are generally safe options for dim sum anyway). Also, the lack of chili sauce was quite a taboo by my books. The only one available was a watery sweet chili sauce which definitely did not go down well with the dishes for me. The menu had a tagline which read: We serve the best foods, but not fast foods. I would attest to their latter half of the sentence, but as for the former, I shall leave it to one's discretion.

P.S: No service charge and GST were levied on the prices and this was highly commendable in today's dining in Singapore. Definitely value for money, which explained the brisk business, but it was a rainy day and we went early at about 6.30pm so getting a table was easy.

There was again a long standing queue outside Victor's Kitchen as seating is rather limited, the place was cramped and not very clean as well - but that didn't seem to deter customers, or dim sum lovers like me. I ordered their famous carrot cake - what is supposedly special about it is their XO sauce, however, portion of the sauce was very little, and the carrot cake is also quite average. Their pork ribs is not too flavourful as well.

The Chef and staff are from Hong Kong (based on the way they speak). Their golden lava bun is a must for mr everytime i visit them. The queue is long if you reach later than 2pm but maybe bcos they serves only dim sum which doesnt require much time for cooking, so the waiting time is still reasonable. The golden lava buns are on first-come-first-served basis. Be careful when you eat them, bcos of the lava within, it will burst if you dont handle it well. There are salted egg in it too. Their lot

As we walked to sunshine plaza, we had a few good stuff to eat... I liked the place a lot but it was so humid... i guess its the weather nowadays... I feel so irritated easily and feel that it cannot make things very crazy.....

Anyways we had the custard yolk egg bun or something like that... according to my colleague it is called liu sha bao... haha... i didnt know how to eat it because they were telling me like it is very creamy and the filling will come out... True enough... it nearly did... I was very thirsthy after that... Nice as it was.... it was also very rich and i was like woah.. i need another drink.... too heaty....

The other things included the pork ribs and char siew bao.... I felt very contented eating these 2 dishes but i guess you feel thirsthy after that... The one thing that was very impressive was the milk tea with ice... they put it in a bowl of ice with the cup in the centre...

Anyways i would come back here again but only if i am around the area...

Custard Buns

This is a must try item. I like the buns so much that I ate 2. My dad is a thrifty person and will always nag at us for wasting $ to eat outside. When we were footing the bill, he even requested to tabao 1 packet of the buns. We also tabao 3 packets of the Custard Buns for each family to bring back. Their buns are even nicer than a famous dim sum restaurant that we went recently. The custard are really flowing out and piping out.

Steamed Carrot Cake
They gave the xo sauce after we ate almost half of it.
I dont really like the steamed carrot cake as I find it too soft.

Fish and century egg porridge
I ordered the fish porridge for my 19 months old boy. The porridge is very smooth.

Steam pork ribs
The pork are too tough. Probably, they have not steamed it enough.

Note:

Do not expect a wide variety of Dim Sum.
Prepare to wait.
If you want to tabao home, you can request for cold buns so that you do not have to queue and wait to for hot food.

Having read about Victor's Kitchen and since it is conveniently located, I decided to give it a try. There was a queue and people stood outside the store to wait for empty tables (due to limited seating), and I waited for about 30 minutes. The liu sha bao is a must try if you visit Victor's Kitchen, they are famous for it; and indeed, it was one of the better ones I have tasted. Also tried the you tiao cheong fun; not good though, was very soggy and not crispy at all.
