Chef Mak Kwai Pui (50 Years Old) Born & Raised in Hong Kong |
In the past ten years, he has worked for renowned hotels such as Le Meridian, Four Seasons. During this time, he expanded his knowledge of the traditional Cantonese dim sum and eventually went on to set up his first restaurant, Tim Ho Wan, in Mong Kok.
Within a year, his restaurant was awarded one Michelin star for its array of dim sum. The success of Tim Ho Wan led the chef to open three more outlets to North Point, IFC Mall and Sham Shui Po. The original outlet in Mongkok has been relocated to Olympian City.
2013 is an exciting year for the chef as he is taking his famed dimsum overseas for the first time which is none other than the outlet located at The Atrium@Orchard, Plaza Singapura which now flourishes with a large group of crowd queuing everyday just to try this authentic Hong Kong delicacy.

The amazing Baked bun with BBQ Pork taste amazingly good and its one of Tim Ho Wan's signature bun that most of the people are eyeing to get their bite on one of this crumbly and fluffy exterior that with a bite, oozes a sweet-salty taste sauce along with the amazingly barbecued pork. This pork bun is simply irresistible and you just can't stop yourself from the temptation of having a second and third round. It's my favorite dish out of all the dim sums as it is seriously my first time trying such a unique crispy yet soft and tasty bun.
My mom would simply love this carrot cake as it was a delicacy my mom and I use to buy from those short houses near my house. This is simply rich in carrot and soft and rich in radish bits that give the carrot cake an extra oomph.
The dish also known to some of us as "Chee Cheong Fun" which is a Cantonese dish from Hong Kong & China.
A Fusion of Pig's Liver into the Chee Cheong Fun makes it simply uncommon and at the same time unique that I personally feel was simply just awesome.
Packed with fresh pig's liver that gives it a natural wild taste to the dish that is packed under the velvety texture of the Vermicelli Roll.

Famous Tonic Medlar & Osmanthus Cake (Cold)
|
This Osmanthus Dessert is sweet and filled with a load of ingredients packed within a small cube. It's sweet and something similar to drinking the osmanthus tea but in a light and savory manner. This dessert I would personally give a 10/10 rating as it is something unique and special that I've never tried before too. It gives off a sweet fragrance and with every bite you are able to taste each and every ingredient within the dessert cube.
