had an early 4pax family dim sum dinner at 5.30pm (to beat the crowd) at canton paradise at star vista on 22.2.2014. :-)
we ordered 8 dim sum & 1 congee. most were quite good!
#1 the crispy char siew pao was quite good. my daughter liked this better but i preferred the one at timhowan. this had a bit much of the pork filling, & for me the flavour & the look were not as good.
#2 the har gao here was very nice, among the best i had. filling was tasty & skin was taut, not soggy, & thin.
#3 the xiao long bao 小笼包 was good too, quite a lot of the tasty soup, certainly beat the very dry ones at tunglok signature i had recently.
#4 the pan-fried carrot cake was just ok.
#5 the prawn cheongfun 虾肠粉 was among the better ones, smooth skin & tasty fillings.
#6 the prawns in crispy bean curd skin was very good, among the best.
#7 the steamed pork ribs was also average & a bit more fatty, not as good as imperial treasure teochew.
#8 the custard salted egg buns (流沙包) was very good, same as imperial treasure teochew & better than royal china.
#9 the congee was quite ok, but i think crystal jade kitchen at hollandv still better.
the bill came to S$62, so about S$15.50pax all-in, pretty ok price, same price & perhaps overall better than timhowan i had recently.
