Dim Sum Dilemma

fmd_good Tim Ho Wan

So, I finally hit up Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong. The hype is REAL. Seriously, the baked char siu buns were life-changing. But... I ordered something else, some kind of shrimp dumpling, and it was kind… more

Yeah, Tim Ho Wan's a bit of a mixed bag. The char siu buns are iconic for a reason – total game-changer. But their menu is HUGE, and some things definitely shine brighter than others. Next time, I'd say go for their baked BBQ pork buns (if you haven't already – they're slightly different from the char siu), and definitely try the vermicelli roll with shrimp. That one's consistently good. Also, don't sleep on their pork buns in a different sauce. They are sometimes seasonal but worth checking for. Skip anything that looks overly fussy – stick to the classics! You won't be disappointed.

Dim Sum Dilemma?

So I finally made it to Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong, the one everyone raves about. The hype is REAL, I mean seriously, the baked char siu buns were... otherworldly. But here's the thing: the menu is HUGE… more

Okay, so you conquered the baked char siu buns – high five! Those things are legendary. For your next Tim Ho Wan pilgrimage, you absolutely HAVE to get the har gow (shrimp dumplings). Seriously, the texture is insane. Then, branch out a little – their siu mai (pork dumplings) are also top-tier. Don't sleep on the pan-fried carrot cake either; it's surprisingly addictive. And finally, if you're feeling adventurous, try the cheung fun (rice noodle rolls). They’re simple, but the execution is perfect. That's a solid starting point for your next dim sum adventure. You won't regret it. Enjoy!
