Resto love: DimDimSum Dim Sum Specialty Store

On our 2011 trip to Hong Kong, the hubs and I subsisted solely on McDonald's, so during our recent trip, we at least did some research and tried to find good places to eat. At the top of our list, DimDimSum Dim Sum Specialty Store. They had won TimeOut's best dim sum in Hong Kong award and also made it to Newsweek's 101 Best Places to Eat Around The World. If there's any doubt about that, it goes away the moment you step inside the restaurant as photos of Anthony Bourdain and other renowned chefs as well as mentions in various magazines were plastered all over the walls.

I love their egg custard buns! I will go back to Hong Kong just for those yummy little piggies.

Their steamed shrimp dumpling (Har Gow/Hakaw) is almost as good as Le Ching's, not their chili garlic sauce though, Le Ching's trumps any other chili garlic sauce, at least in my opinion.

My dad for some reason thought he was ordering pancit. Go figure!

The food for me was OK, not as good as Le Ching's but their piggy custard bun is really a must-try!
