Swee Choon for dimsum!There were so many food to choose from but since I was there with one friend only, we had limited choices! Shall comment on all the food we manage to stuff in!Red Bean Paste Pancake (SGD4.80)A little on the hefty side for just red bean paste with flour but this was good. (Y) One of the nicest ones around the rest we ordered!Shanghai Xiao Long Bao (SGD4)I thought these were pretty good, the XLBs were huge and the soup was rather yummy.They were stingy with the vinegar-soaked
There were so many food to choose from but since I was there with one friend only, we had limited choices! Shall comment on all the food we manage to stuff in!
Red Bean Paste Pancake (SGD4.80)A little on the hefty side for just red bean paste with flour but this was good. (Y) One of the nicest ones around the rest we ordered!
Shanghai Xiao Long Bao (SGD4)I thought these were pretty good, the XLBs were huge and the soup was rather yummy.
They were stingy with the vinegar-soaked ginger slices though (maybe to reduce wastage?), but thankfully, we can request for more.
Portugese Egg Tart (SGD3)Buttery fragrance, can compare with KFC's! I love the egg!
Swee Choon Mee-Suah Kueh (SGD2)This is highly raved about and got 25 votes the last time I checked on hungrygowhere.
But both my friend and I felt it was so-so only, somewhat oily with nothing to shout about. It doesn't even taste fragrant. :/
Layer Pancake w/ Egg & Meat Floss (SGD4.30)The pancake is so QQ and the ingredients taste good together. I love the pancake! Haha.
Steamed Salted Egg Yolk Custard Bun (SGD3.60)Highly highly raved, and it was not bad!
The taste of the salted egg yolk was strong and I love the bun skin.
Best to eat when hot though! Mmmmm.
Pan Fried Pork Dumpling (SGD4)Oilier version of Shanghai Xiao Long Bao, but I think it went well with the ginger slices and vinegar!
Some other food we ordered also include Sichuan Chili Oil Wanton (SGD4) which were quite tasteless and not spicy at all, Har Kow (SGD2.20) which were mehh, Prawn and Banana Fritter (SGD2.80) which was quite yummy but at the same time oily lol, Beancurd Prawn Roll (SGD2.80) which were so juicy and nice and Siew Mai (SGD1.60) which don't taste like what they are supposed to taste like.
Overall, I guess the food at Swee Choon is only so-so but then again, I didn't try the other food, so I can't really judge. I guess if I were to come back again, I'd probably come with a large group so that I can order and try more things.
Oh and if you wanna save some money, reject their wet tissues because they charge for that! ;)
