春风得意肠，好吃过炸两 － My first bite of Dim Sum Icon

30 January 2016

We had a wholesome, full dinner of dim sum, a very exceptional dining experience.

To me, a post 50s, the pastel pink and blue Little Twin Stars as logo for a Cantonese style dim sum restaurant was rather absurd. Should be more appropriate for sweets or dessert for the teens. Sure not for us loyal yum cha fans.

Then came the collage with all young faces, 潮人一族at the corner of the stairwell leading to the basement. Have I come to the wrong place?

And a group tour round the high bar tables and stools. The dingy pastel pink and blue mugs, drink mats, and the cup cakes with pastel pink, blue, and golden creamy little twin stars tops. Adorable but are they really edible? So girlish!

The first bite turned me around: Fresh Pommel Tea Jelly. 柚香茶冻
The jelly has a strong flavor of pommel but was held in an orange shell. Cool and soothing!

Next came 春风得意肠。 Steamed rice roll wrapped with spring roll.
Definitely it originated from the traditional 炸两, but it well surpassed it - with the yummy prawn in the spring roll.

Simply creativity in gourmet!

"My favorite is this Deep fried minced chicken dumplings."

“I love the lobster dumpling most."

"The chicken is wonderful!"

We will definitely come back to Dim Sum Icon  - Little Twin Stars at Central。
