We decided on Dim Sum, since they did not know how to appreciate western food, be it French or Italian or American. I brought them to Royal China in Raffles Hotel, since that I thought Royal China is the best Dim Sum and they have tried Lei Garden.
Royal China was very crowded on a public holiday. You could see old folks at many tables, and mum commented that it was quite pitiful to be old, because could only wait for holiday for their children to bring them out...Hmmm
We started our lunch with the heavenly egg tarts. Other than those in Hong Kong, the egg tarts in Royal China would be the best that you could find in Singapore. I thought that the egg tarts today were a little less warm, maybe they waited a while before they served, unlike weekdays, where they served it to you immediately.
Char Siew Can Pao. Special of the Day
Har Kaw. I think they are one of the best haw kaws in Singapore. Thin skin that melt in your mouth, fresh and crunchy prawns, served steaming hot!
Chives Dumpling. Can taste the chives freshness and fragance, the skin is thin and smooth.
Zha Leong - Fried Fritters wrapped with Chee Cheong Fun. Crispy in the inside, smooth and soft on the outside! Yummy! Not many places had this, so if you are here, must try!
Siew Mai. Somehow they changed their Siew Mai's look everytime i come. The last time i came here, the top had a big prawn as a decoration. This time the prawn was missing, replaced by a Guo Ji Zi..
Special Royal China Chee Cheong Fun. It has 3 ingredients, scallops, char siew and prawns! Very tasty, though i find it a bit salty.
Wu Kok. Fried Yam Balls. Usually the fillings were meat and some green peas. For Royal China, they used scallops! Love the combination.
Fried Beef Hor Fun (干炒牛河). A bit oily, but it was very tasty. The beef was tender, and the hor fun was smooth, and you can taste the generous portion of bean sprouts, which took the oiliness away.
Overall: 9/10
