Everyone seems to know Tim Ho Wan.

Filled with sweet-salty barbecued pork, the Baked Bun with BBQ Pork ($4.50 for three pieces) is crumbly and fluffy on the outside and moist and warm on the inside. Our verdict of this one “Heavenly King”? You wouldn’t believe how amazing the pastry is, but they could’ve been more generous with the filling. One layer of BBQ pork is more than a little sad.
The remaining three dishes, Vermicelli Roll with Pig’s Liver ($5.50), Steamed Egg Cake ($3.80 for one piece) and Pan Fried Carrot Cake ($4.50 for three pieces) aren't that memorable, with the skin of the Vermicelli Roll being too thick, the Steamed Egg Cake coming off as just average, and the Carrot Cake – a little too oily.
