The last time I went to Tho Yuen Restaurant for Dim Sum, it was nearly lunch time and all the dim sum were sold out. The Pineapple bun (polo bun) on the left and lou pho peng (wintermelon biscuit) were very nice. The pineapple buns had purple yam paste as filling. All the dim sum were pretty good except the one with mixed vegetables. With all the dim sum we had, and a pot of tea, the total was RM16.20. Tho Yuen Restaurant is located along Campbell Street beside a big Rolex corner shop, you won’t miss it.

Dim sum, which means touch the heart, was named quite rightly. They are little bite-sized delicacies usually enjoyed as breakfast with a pot of Chinese tea. Li Yen, the award winning Chinese restaurant located on the second floor of the Ritz Carlton, features the Master Chef’s daily Cantonese specialty for lunch and dinner. At Li Yen, guests enjoy their dim sum in a rich oriental setting with the accompaniment of live Yangqing music in the evenings.
