Saw this spot on the Jolly YouTube channel but in truth it didn't live up to expectation. That said, the staff were lovely and helped me despite speaking a different language.
叉燒包 (Barbecue Pork Buns) HKD8.50 each 燒賣 (Siew Mai) HKD4.50 each No Service Charge This was a Random Place I just found when wandering the Streets of Macau. I was drawn to it because it looked so Rustic and Old School! Stacks and Stacks of Old School Bamboo Steamers and looked exactly like how a Classic HK Street Food Stall would look like. Unfortunately though, this wasn 't a Hidden Gem. 叉燒包 (Barbecue Pork Buns) HKD8.50 each (S$1.50) The CSB was very Big in Size. Dough Skin is not bad. Fluffy and Pillowy with a Slight Sweetness. The Meat Filling portion within was Acceptable but Unfortunately is not the Sweet Type and tasted more Soy Sauce based. Overall, I find this tastes only so so. Not my type of Char Siew Bao. 燒賣 (Siew Mai) HKD4.50 each (S$0.80) Siew Mai was Meaty and Juicy but has a Very Average Taste to it. Porky taste is abit strong here, also I didn 't like that it 's just Too Oily making it taste very Jelak. Wanton Skin also had abit of Residual Flour Taste. Quality is around our Singapore S$1.50 Dim Sum standard, certainly cannot compare to a Dim Sum Eatery. This place is only for Takeaways and Auntie is Friendly. Price is certainly very affordable, but the Quality I feel is Very Average to Below Average even though this looks Super Old School. I think this is just a No Frills, Simple Working Man type of Dim Sum meant more for the Working Folks to grab a Quick Meal to Fill the Belly. I feel you can skip this one. Thanks for Reading.
