Price about $29.50 nett per person, we felt it was a good deal since their one-sheet menu allows repeated orders of same item.
Fried Chicken Wings in Shrimp Paste - tasted good as the thin batter coating the wings was crispy and the meat was moist and tender.
Steamed Prawns Wrapped in Beancurd Skin - The fresh prawns are juicy and well marinated. Ordered twice for this item.
Stir Fried French Beans - This dish was over fried as the vegetables turned out soggy.
Noodles With Soya Sauce Chicken - The chicken meat was soft and with the flavourful soya sauce dressing, the springy noodles was done perfectly.
Porridge with Century Egg - Tasted plain and average as the small miserable ingredients appeared no where once we started stirring.
Fish Fillet with Salt & Pepper - The fillet was over fried as it tasted dry and hard to chew.
Overall, we were quite disappointed with the quality of food. Although they were widely recommended, this outlet does not serve the quality as expected.

We have ordered some dim sum items to try out whether the quality is as good as those raved by bloggers.
Crispy Egg Plant with Pork Floss ( $4.50 ) - The batter coating the egg plant was not crispy although points must be given for the right texture of the egg plant. The pork floss was not as tasty nor flavourful.
Beancurd Prawn Roll ( $3.00 - 2pcs ) - The beancurd skin was fried cripsy with prawns tasting fresh and succulent.
Yam Fritter ( $2.20 - 2 pcs ) - This was one of the best that we have tasted as the yam paste was fried to perfection. Small bits of the yam can be tasted on each bite.
Swee Choon Mee Suah Kueh ( $2.40 - 2 pcs ) - One of their in-house recommendation. Nothing great except that the exterior skin was deep fried to make it crispy but retained the soft texture of mee suah internally.
Chicken Claw ( $3.00 ) - Very soggy and not enough of marinate. Quite bony and does not taste yummy at all.
Overall, we felt that it is not worth the queue unless you are craving for late night supper as the restaurant opens from 6.00pm to 4am daily except close on Tuesday. Plenty of service staff who are attentive and fast in clearing tables.

Unlike other restaurants that provided colourful photos on hardcover menu, the staff just handed us a laminated menu and another piece ordering sheet.
Spinach Dumpling with Shrimp ( $4.00 for 3 ) – The transparent dumpling skin was chewy and with the chopped spinach and fresh succulent prawns, we were quite satisfied with this dish.
Spicy Prawn Paste Char Siew Stew Noodle ( $6.80 ) – A must-try dish as the noodles were well fried. Unfortunately, we could not taste this “prawn paste” flavour as specified but overall, the noodles were springy and worth ordering.
Wasabi Salad Prawn Dumpling ( $6.50 for 3 ) – The fried dumpling has crusty skin outside but moist crunchy chopped prawns in it. When dipped in the mild taste of wasabi salad cream, it left a good after taste effect.
Broccoli with Abalone Sauce ( $6.80 ) – With flavourful abalone sauce, the steamed broccoli tasted firm and fresh.
Baked BBQ Pork Buns ( $5.30 for 3 ) – One of the Big 4 Heavenly Kings items which made Tim Ho Wan reputable in Hong Kong. The fluffy buns were brushed with thin layer of topping and upon first bite, the gravy gave us an immediate surprise. It contained generous amount of BBQ pork and was delectable especially for kids.
Although prices are a bit expensive as compared to other dim sum restaurants, the quality of food and standard of cooking coupled with the attentive staff made it worth going back again.

Situated just a stone throw from the LRT, this latest addition by SAFRA has created a buzz because it has made it more family oriented. Besides this Cantonese restaurant, there are entertainment like kids art studio, KTV, bowling, darts board games, gym and restaurants like Jack’s Place, Pizza Hut, HK Cafe as well as Thai and Japanese cuisine too.
This restaurant serves mostly Hong Kong cuisine and we were greeted by a cheerful staff who brought us to our table.
Crispy Eggplant with Chicken Floss ( $8.80 ) – The eggplant was not crispy but just thinly coated with flour to retain its soft texture. At least, it was not mushy when eaten with the chicken floss.
Fish Skin tossed with Salted Egg Yolk ( $10.80 ) – This was their signature dish. Crispy skin with that crunchiness sound. Fortunately, it was not overly coated with the egg yolk.
BBQ Honey Pork Char Siew ( $12.80 ) – Well marinated pork with some burnt parts. The meat was tender and we could taste the sweetness of honey on each piece.
Charcoal-roasted Crispy Pork Belly ( $13.80 ) – Another signature dish which we noticed that every table has ordered. The surface skin was thin and crispy. There were very thin fats embedded between the meat which was a consolation to those who dislike the taste and texture of fats.
Rice Roll with Char Siew ( $5.00 ) – The silky rice roll ( chee cheong fun ) was filled with generous bits of char siew. Soaking in fragrant soya sauce, it has created a balance from sweetness of the char siew too.
Pan-fried Radish Cake ( $4.00 ) – This item contains tiny shredded radish in the mixture. Although the exterior remained crispy, each piece still maintained the soft smooth texture.
Overall, service was good as most of the staff are elderly aunties. Although prices are a bit expensive as compared to other restaurants, it can soon make up by other activities that you can enjoy located within the same premise.

Besides their all-time favourite roast duck with different types of herbs for each roasting, we also ordered their marmite superior chicken, Braised assorted mushrooms with Broccoli and their vegetables topped by crab meat.
Their signature herbal roast duck was well done with tender juicy meat and nice thin skin. With the sweetness from the herbs, the little gravy goes well with our small bowl of rice.
The braised mushrooms with crunchy broccoli was another highly recommended dish. With generous pieces of fat mushrooms, we truly enjoyed each bite.
The vegetables ( nai bai ) do not look appealing when this dish was served. There were only a few pieces of vegetables with very watery egg gravy. Luckily, the steamed crab meat was fresh.
Their marmite chicken drumsticks was troublesome to eat. After a few minutes of struggling, we managed to bite some meat off. To our disappointment, the meat was dried and hard to chew.
We have tried the same dishes at other branches and by far, some dishes turned out well but some items are not. Look like the quality is not consistent and rely very much on the chef’s skill
