i went mayim on sun 7 feb and ordered the guo tie (3 pcs) and xiao long bao (3 pcs).

the guo tie is large and has juice inside. caught me by surprise, cos i am used to the smaller and dry versions. i still prefer the dry versions. a soupy guo tie dont make sense to me. so that’s a fail.

the xiao long bao also no standard. they sit each one in a small little metal foil dish so that the bottom of the bao will not leak out the soup. which means the skin is not well made. or else they cooked them in advance, also not a proper thing to do.

last time going to mayim. and i live real close to west mall. pity.

There’s also a chinese restaurant at west mall which i usually frequent (not for the past year though) They serve some dim sum. the guo tie is totally HUGE. haha. I don’t know whether you have been there before. The restaurant is called mayim (tian le li in chinese) It’s located right next to swensen. The pricing is quite reasonable as well. There’s no char siew sou though.

duck meat is usually not there for a normal bowl of kway chap. there’s a stall that sells nice kway chap at west mall but the sauce is too salty.
