I've read about a few unique dim sum dishes at Mouth Restaurant and so specially made a trip there to try them. They have a tea time promo from 3 to 5pm, 30% off dim sum; but the colouful har gao, squid ink bun and liu sha bao are all not included in the promo.We loved the XO sauce that came with the colouful har gao ($9.80), the skin made from sweet potato, squid ink, pumpkin, carrot, spinach, if I'm not wrong.

They actually taste rather similar but it's quite attractive with it's different colours. Squid Ink Char Siew Bao ($5++) is not available for dinner (their other dim sums are available whole day will 7.45pm); it's really normal char siew bao, just that perhaps the bun is a little fluffier than the normal ones.
Had to try their famous liu sha bao ($5.40) which is baked instead of a steamed bun; didn't like that the filling was very oily, and I would prefer steamed buns as the salted egg custard is already very overwhelming and oily, and the baked bun is buttery as well, a plain bun would be better.
Was disappointed that they didn't have the dessert combination I saw on pictures (perhaps only at the other outlet) that came with durian mochi (?). I nevertheless ordered the purple sweet potato puree to try. It was cold and grainy, a good refreshing dessert, but quite filling, so it's better to share.
Bill came up to $40 for 2.
