Serves up a mixture of Zi Char and Dim Sum dishes. There are 4 outlets altogether; the East Coast and Thomson outlets offer more Zi Char items while the Geylang and Bukit Timah outlets offer more Dim Sum varieties. Each outlet has a different feel and atmosphere and only the Geylang branch is opened 24 hours.

1 Review on “Mongkok Dim Sum - Geylang”
I found most of the dishes pretty average.
🥟Fried shrimp dumplings: 9/10. The skin is thinner than usual and has a really nice crisp even at the folds where the dough is the thickest. It was so good we tabaoed some home and it was still super crispy 30mins later.
✔Chicken feet: 3/10. I think I have never rated anything this low. The skin is tough, sticks to the bones, and the whole dish has a weird taste to it. Don’t waste money on this.
🥭 Mango prawn with beancurd skin: 5/10. The skin was thick and too chewy, there was too little mango and too much sesame seeds.
🦐Prawn chee cheong fun: 7/10. The sauce is fragrant and tasty but the ccf is not the silky thin kind.
☕Milk coffee: 5/10 Too sweet and sour, looked more like a dark chocolate drink than iced coffee.
Eating here is a bit of a hit and miss. You’re never sure whether you’re gonna get something average, a fail or a hit. Ambience wise it’s not as vibrant as 126 Wen Dou Shi down the road, but it’s more spacious and comfortable. The last time I was at 126, water from the air conditioner above was dripping into my porridge. After we changed seats, water started dripping on my shoulders. 🤦♀️
Would I come back here? Actually yes! Hubby finds it more conducive for him and trying out the other dishes is gonna be an adventure. Huntingmama is always game for adventures, as long as it’s got nothing to do with speed and heights. Yes I fail at Amusement Park Rides.
