Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid

Hi! I would like to share our experience at Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid. Special thanks to my mom for sponsoring this meal.


Din Tai Fung is actually a Taiwanese restaurant. They are famous of their Xiao Long Bao (Small steamed bun with meat fillings and soup). I have also heard that their fried rice is a must try.

We have ordered two types of Xiao Long Bao, one set is original flavour, another set is the crab flavour.


They have some soy sauce and chili oil as condiments


The Xiao Long Bao has to be eaten with ginger and vinegar.


Here comes with our Xiao Long Bao. Each of the bao is filled with minced meat and some very steamy soup. You have to really be careful of not scalding yourself. To savour them safely, you will have to make a small bite on the skin and allow the soup to flow out onto your spoon. Wait until the soup cools down a little bit before eating it.


The crab flavoured Xiao Long Bao has a little twist of crab roe flavour in it. Not very strong flavour. They have put a small crab shaped dough to indicate the crab flavoured Xiao Long Bao.

Original Xiao Long Bao - RM 25.20
Crab Xiao Long Bao - RM 39.10


We also ordered shrimp wonton noodle soup (RM 20.90) for my daughter. She likes to eat noodles. The noodle tasted plain.



My brother has ordered the Minced Pork Noodle (Zha Jiang Mian) (RM 20.90). The pork was stir fried with some toufu and other condiments before spreading on top of the noodles. The flavour was not strong as well.


Lastly we also ordered the Shrimp and Pork fried rice (RM 25.10). The rice was fried to perfection. Each rice was in whole and does not stick together. The only downside is the portion is very small.


It is only enough for 1 person.


We also ordered a pot of Chrysanthemum Pu Er (RM 18.20).

We had paid RM 158.35 for this meal (with service tax 6%)

Verdict:

Taste: 4/5
Taste is good. More to the light side.

Price: 3/5
Not your daily restaurant. Very high price with small portion.

Ambiance: 4/5
Good ambiance with clean and comfy environment.

Service: 5/5
You pay for what you get. Good service overall.

Overall: 4/5
Good experience. But definitely not always. I am just getting warm up after this meal.

Thank you for reading. Please recommend other dining spot that you would like us to visit. 

We are looking for Dim Sum joint around Subang Jaya area. Please comment if you would like to recommend to us.

Review: Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe

Hi! Today I would like to share my dining experience in Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe. It was located at SS15 Courtyard, next to SS15 LRT station. The spotlight here is on their Korean style shave ice, Bingsu. However, they do serve hot food here. This is the bimbab I orderd. Somewhere around RM 15+. They call themselves "Best Bingsu in Town". I do agree with them. So far in the shave ice category, their texture and mouthfeel is the best among those I tried. Basically they are using a milk based bingsu, and they add different toppings on top. Their bingsu is very soft, smooth, and literary melts in your mouth.  Injeolmi Red Bean - Injeolmi means rice cake (the two white colour bits on top of this bingsu). The bingsu is covered with roasted soy bean flavour with a hint of red bean paste on top. (RM 24++) Blueberry snow ice - Covered with blueberries, blueberry syrup and chunks of cheesecake, this bingsu is more flavourful compared to the Injeolmi Red ...

Touch from strangers

When I was pregnant, there will be somebody that touches my baby bump without asking me consent. After my baby was born, seeing my baby being touched by strangers also doesn't feel good to me. Not only because of the germs lurking on their finger tips, I also felt disrespect as the person is invading our personal space and boundaries. Unwanted touching is always inappropriate, and it is a difficult and awkward to reject touch from a stranger. Most of the time it happened so fast that the person was gone before I could react. I know this word might sound heavy, but sometime I do felt "harassed". Of course, I can do my part to stop people to touch my baby. Like telling off strangers to stay away, putting up "NO touching" signs, and putting up mosquito net to create a barrier. Doing these is effective, but awkward as well. It will be great that if everyone could educate themselves about respecting people's space and boundaries, especially for baby b...
