For me, this is one of the better dim sum house around the area of PJ, Tropicana and Aman Suria.
Newly opened, it has amassed quite a following in its short period of business.The reason is apparent. The dim sum is tasty and it is not too expensive.
I find most, if not all (or at least for the ones I have sampled) of their dim sum really good, well prepared and wonderfully fresh.
Lets start with my favourite; the porky Char Siew Pau (RM1.70 ). The buns are soft but the texture wasnt as fluffy as those in hotels. But for its price, Im certainly not going to complain.
Especially since the filling is quite substantial too, unlike some joints where its mostly thick gravy and oily bits.
RM4.80 -Char Koay Kak.
I like my carrot cakes fragrant with wok-hei (smoky charred flavour from the heat of the wok) and non-greasy. Thus I dont agree with the blackish ones sold at night markets and hawker ! stalls.< br>The one I like, is as exactly as below; dry, generously fried with crunchy bean sprouts, with big thick carrot cakes and eggs.
Siew Mai RM4.30. Big in size and meaty. No cheating with chunks of pork fat here. Good stuff!
Prawn Dumplings RM4.30.
I hate it when my prawns are coated with a layer of flour under the dumplings skin.The ones here has a bit of coating but its not thick so it was acceptable. And each fat dumpling was stuffed with fresh, bouncy prawn meat under its translucent skin.
Same goes for the Chee Cheong Fun we ordered. The rice sheets wasnt as silky and smooth as I would have liked but the soy sauce and chilli plus the copious amount of prawns between its folds made up for it.
And yes, theres copious amount of prawns in between its folds. You do get your moneys worth!
Another must-order for me during a dim sum session is steamed fish balls. The ones here, as you would have guessed by now, was good, with decent fishy flavour and a very homemade feel.
Some of the Yong Tau Foo offerings, including the stuffed brinjals and chillis was very well prepared as well. Again, in comparison to other joints, you get substantially a fatter chunk of fish meat in your yong tau foo.
We tried the porridge as well.
Flavourful, smooth gruel teeming with pork meat and century egg.
Though I avoid fried items during my dim sum sessions for obvious reasons, the Sui Kow/Fried Gouza RM4.30 was really worth the calories! Again, it was the filling; a good blend ofvegetables, meat, prawns that made it so nice. As you can see from below, the sui kow is plump with very little excess skin at the corners.
I didnt eat so many items in one visit of course! These were accumulative from numerous visits and the good food prompted my return again and again here.
One time, I dropped in for lunch and tried their roast fowl.
I loved the duck, slow braised with a marvellous (though subdued) herbal aftertaste. That sets it apart from the usual roast duck.The roast chicken was commendable as well; with the usual prerequisite fundamentals of tender, moist, etc all present.
One of my favourite is this Mussels, Pork and Prawn dumpling in a shell.
Juicy meat paste with one whole mussel. Delicious!
Below: The lor mah kai was packed with ingredients; sizeable chunks of chicken meat, mushrooms, pork and preserved sausages.
And oh, the sauces are not bad either.
This has been my regular dim sum joint recently. I prefer it over Hong Kee or Jin Xuan anytime. I personally thought it triumphs over Yuan Garden at SS2 and Key Hiong at Taman Megah too!
Super Delight Dim Sum House @ Aman Suria (same row as Wong Poh and Super Aroma Crab Seafood Restaurant.

So if youre in PJ, head here for dim sum and if youre in KL do try Tuck Cheong at Pudu!
