Dim Sum Buffet at Ming Palace, Corus Hotel KL

Hi everyone. =)

Today's review is Dim Sum buffet at Ming Palace. 

I've always love dim sum. No idea why, just love it. Probably because of its variety.

It was RM35 per person, bought it when Groupon had offer. Normal price is RM67.30 per person including tax. Since it was quite cheap and I had been craving for dim sum for quite a while, I decided to let myself to have a feast.

*For your information, their dim sum is halal. So those who prefer dim sum that are made of pork might not like it.

Dining time is 12pm-2.30pm.

I like their door and entrance. It has that antique Chinese houses/restaurants feel.

Nice decorations and environment.

I'm ready to EAT and EAT. 

Their buffet is by order. I basically ordered everything on the menu expect for those porridge, fried rice and mee.

This is lemon grass jelly with plum. It was quite refreshing. Couldn't taste plum tough.

Chilled sea coconut with longan. 

These few types of dim sum were readily prepared. It was on a counter at the left corner where the desserts were.

I took steamed chicken dumpling (siew mai), steamed fresh scallop with beancurd skin, crispy vegetarian spring roll, sesame ball with peanut paste and deep fried yam dumpling.

The taste was so so. Not as good as I expected. Just normal dim sum that you can get anywhere.

This is Sze Chuan hot and sour soup but not hot and not sour at all. Just like the ordinary soup that we have when we go for wedding dinner or big occasions in air-conditioned restaurant. 

This is Wantan soup. Normal as well, nothing special. Even some wantan in other restaurants are better than this.

This is pan fried raddish cake. I only like the crispiness of its outer layer. Couldn't taste the raddish, too much flour.

This is deep fried crispy otak-otak roll. I like this as this is a new thing to me. It was crispy and I like the spiciness of the filing.

This is deep fried beancurd roll. Normal as well.

This is deep fried crispy seaweed roll. I like this because of its cute looks. 

This is stuffed beancurd puff with fish paste. It was a bit hard and dry.

The chicken rice flour roll tasted super weird. It had that cockroach taste or something like that? I don't know how to describe. Totally NOT OK.

Steamed shrimp with celery was nice, as I love shrimp.

Steamed fish ball dumpling, normal only.

According to my bf, this braised chicken feet in abalone sauce tasted weird as well.

This Japanese fried dumpling was the best of all dim sum. The skin was okay, a bit crispy and the filing had a lot of chives that I love. Just yummy!

If it wasn't on offer, I don't think I'll ever try it out. 

It's expensive and yet the quality is so so only, not worth it.
