Hey, good morning guys today
Is dim-sum day and that I've been researching a lot about where to go and this place always come up. I'm at Tim
Ho wan or intent [Ru] which means add good luck this is a one Michelin Star restaurant
In Kowloon, and it's supposed to be the cheapest more Michelin star restaurant in the world and this place
It's just open it, and it's already packed
Actually there was a line out the door
I thought they've been open for a while, but nope it just opened
It was a line out the door either squeezed into like a metal gate
And here. We are I'm sitting with a bunch of people over here guys
Shy people and if you see here on our table. There's a big Bowl and
there's some tea this is for I think drinking and also to rinse out your
Utensils and cups then you rinse it out and dump it into that Big Bowl
I read this somewhere, so I don't know if that's accurate but
Yeah, I think I see other people doing it so don't forget to do that if you come here rinse it out and dump into
That bowl apparently maybe this isn't clean enough. I think I just moved it enough for about 4 people for myself
I got the shrimp dumpling it's gotta try that
I got the shu mai the Chouchou balls is supposed to be insane here
can't wait to have that and I got fried milk which I had some in Taiwan. I can't wait to try it here
They brought out my bill already and each item averages to be around 20 to 25
Hong Kong dollars
So that's about three dollars per item which is pretty much the same as New York Dim sum and my total bill comes to about
200 Hong Kong dollars which is about $30 u.s.. Which is
About what I pay in New York, because I eat a lot of dim sum
And this is not one of those old-style
pushkar places you put everything onto a piece of paper and they bring out your order
I just asked them for some hot oil and the waitress told me they're hot oil is the best we'll see
oh
It's pretty good. This is not your typical cantonese. Hot sauce this is legit hot
oil, oh my God as a bight that's really spice hot oil.
I just took it a little dip of my chopstick, and that thing is burning me right now. I love it
Rarely would you place such spicy hot oil in this region because they're not known to be a lot of spicy food
So far what came out is my beef with rice and an egg on top and my Chouchou chumphon
or rice noodles with roast pork inside then my favorite tofu skin wrap and
We got some ribs here
Let's try out this beef dish the beef looks like it's a beef patty
And when they first brought it out it kind of looked gooey to me, but it's not it's actually very sausagy
And there's an egg here. There's some rice
I don't know exactly how to eat this maybe I'm supposed to mix it all up together. I'm gonna have to use a spoon here
Well, thats delicious.
Wow
i'll tell you this they're hot oil, that's legit..That's legit, the beef patty is really really tender and the rice
It's on the dry side which I like. I don't like it all mushy. This is kind of like a balls
I find that I had yesterday
Without the crisp, but the flavors soaked into the rice some soy sauce special soy sauce in the rice really good
There's my Chouchou - let's try this
That
is by Far
The best chumphon i have ever had. The best. I don't know if it's the Chouchou on the inside
It makes it so good, but the texture I]don't like my chumphon too soft the texture is very chewy
Wow, and the sauce they paired with it is delicious. And even on its own the chumphon has such good flavor
oh my God. I eat a lot of this in New York a lot nothing comes close to this
I don't think I ever finish a order of this stuff faster in my life
I'll tell you guys this every time I go to Dim sum
I ordered this because it's something you order, right?
I never even really liked it and this time
I never finished order of chumphon faster in my life
And now I crave more because usually this thing is pretty filling but for some reason here is really light
[it's] really delicate so after a minute
This is what's left of my chumphon, and they try to take this plate away from me
And there's still a couple of morsels on here
So I saved the plate because I can't have anything left on this plate. I love it
Im about to lick this plate clean can I get some bread so I can just like
Wipe this plate clean and not look like a total maniac
I'm gonna dump the rest of this onto my rice here next. I got some pickle vegetables beef dumplings dip that in some hot oil
Wow, oh, I really like this. Oh, this is nice
Hmm. I'll tell you what's really different about this dumpling here
This is not greasy usually when you get fried dumplings super hard on the outside very oily, but this this is really light the outside
Slightly crispy, the inside is very Tender, got a nice beefy flavor
I don't feel like this is [very] filling. I feel like the dumpling wrapper is very thin. Then we're typical fried dumplings. I can't eat
Maybe order a five, and I'm good because it's just too oily too much for me, but this this is light
This is delicious. This is almost like a boiled dumpling now. Let's move on to the shu mai
Dip in a little hot oil?
It's good again fairly light much lighter than the typical shu mai - got good flavor
I mean nothing spectacular is pretty good as a solid shu mai mine alright the star attraction has arrived the roast pork bun.
I've read so many good things about this just at first glance. It doesn't look like a typical roast pork bun
It looks like kind of like a one of those
coconut buns that you get at the Chinese Bakeries Cheers,
oh, thats good.
Oh, that's one of the best things I ever had.
oh, That's so full of porky deliciousness.
My God, this is awesome
Sorry I gotta I gotta just finish this me and this thing we've got a special bond right now
if you eat it too quickly you might burn yourself, but you know what it's worth it
This is by far the best cha Siu bun I've ever had in my life
Usually I don't like Cha Siu buns because the Cha Sui is kind of soft when you chew it
There's not much substance there here the Cha Siu is delicious first of all also the sweet [glaze] inside this bun
It's not overly sweet look at all the big pieces of Cha Siu
in here
Good there Cha Siu is so good
Maybe I should get an order of just their Cha Siu, this thing is crusty flaky on the outside and basically the crust falls apart is
So soft this crust is so soft
And you would think it might be a little overly sweet because it's sweet on the outside sweet on the inside
No, this is perfect guys best Cha Siu bun ever, all right let me pay my other food some attention now because I just been obsessing
over that roast pork bun for the last five minutes
This is one of my favorite food items ever
This is tofu skin wrapped with pork filling and some veggies on the inside always love this item
You know what everything tastes a lot lighter here
I feel like flavor-wise the flavor is not as strong as the ones in New York pork ribs with fermented black Bean always a classic
This place has some special relationship with pork where as long as it's pork and they touch it
It becomes delicious. This is redonkulous
The meat is so tender usually they don't put enough black beans on to the pork. I feel like but this time
every bite nice black Bean Flavor love it
I've been here so long my table mates changed so a
Little more space to set up my tripod for at least a little bit
I wanted to try [this] item before he gets cold
This is the fried milk kind of look like a little mozzarella stick or a little chicken stick. Let's see. What's inside here
Basically it looks like the same thing as I got in Taiwan
yep, I
Can't go wrong with this. Oh my God. This is so decadent
Do not attempt to eat it without something to drink
milky goodness with a lot of grease exploding in your mouth. That's what it is final savory item the Xia jiao shrimp dumpling
When I was researching places people were knocking on the Xia jiao They were like oh its just regular, I would argue this is awesome
Hmm
The skin is uber thin the whole thing is very bouncy and that's like a characteristic
You're supposed to look for in Xia jiao. The flavor is solid. This is really good again. This is another item
I don't typically love I get it because usually you that's what you're doing you get it, but just this is really really good
This is my last one. I'm finishing all this
This is really good. Yeah
Guys really really awesome say hi
Now I know a place as popular as this usually comes with a lot of hype and typically the food is not nearly as good
as you think and
Let's be honest
I haven't really tried other dim sum places in hong kong so I don't know but at least
From what I can compare with the ones back in New York
This place blows the New York places out of the water
I don't think I could go eat Dim sum anymore in New York City
Because it's just not gonna be as good my favorites items so far. It's got to be the roast pork bun
That's the signature. I was reading about it everyone loves it
I love it as well, then I gotta say it's the rice noodles the chumphon
that's
Amazing if you can make something that I don't typically like at all
And then have me finish it in record speed and even wanted me to lick the plate that you're doing something, right?
Then I gotta say the pork ribs with the a fermented black beans
I love this the beef rice with the egg on top solid I think the only couple items that are
Pedestrian [um] are the Shamans [the] [Shauna] is it's good. It's not you know mind-blowing and then I feel like the tofu wrap
It's good
but I feel like it's not as flavorful as
The ones in New York and guys you cannot go wrong with fried milk you gotta at least try it know as funny is that
This is probably one of the few ways asians will eat milk
We won't drink it raw, but if you can chill it and deep-fry it. Yeah, we're going to eat it
I got to finish up my meal, but this has been an awesome
Dim sum experience if you guys watch my videos you'll know that
Cantonese food is not some of my favorites because the flavor is much lighter than what I'm used to
But I love balls
I find one rice clay pots, and I love dim sum and so far at least on those two fronts
[it] has been amazing if you guys are ever in this area
I'll put the information for this place in the description box you guys got to try this for yourself and for me
I loved it alright guys. Thanks so much for watching see you
