Tim Ho Wan - Bangkok

Tim Ho Wan

Even though this place may seem a bit pricey and not much variety compared to other Dim Sum places, I'd say this place is worth it. Tim Ho Wan would eventually earn a Michelin star of its own in the 2010 Hong Kong and Macau Guide, a distinction which some have stated was a move in response to the criticism that the Michelin Guide was "elitist" and "out of touch with local tastes. In 2015, its Sham Shui Po, North Point and Tai Kok Tsui branches had all received one Michelin star. Since then, the restaurant has been dubbed as "the world's cheapest Michelin-star restaurant".    

Finally we got to try one of their branches in Bangkok, Thailand. Located at Terminal 21, Tim Ho Wan arrived in Bangkok in August 2015. The restaurant setup was very clean and up to date fixtures. The menu all had pictures so you know exactly what you are ordering. Their dimsum highlight such as:

Baked Bun with BBQ Pork

They are soft but crispy on the outside; tearing it open releases a tiny flood of sauce and a gush of mouth-watering fragrance. Within the sauce swims soft and savoury pieces of barbecued pork. Sinking your teeth into anyone of them and you will find yourself asking for more.       

Beancurd Skin with Pork and Shrimp

This dish will first welcome you with its nice chewy skin. And when you get through that flavoursome skin, you reach the juicy pork & shrimp on the inside. A flavourful and juicy dish.    

Vermicelli Roll with BBQ Pork

Classics that taste great with the quality ingredients and culinary skills that Tim Ho Wan has to offer. A must order dimsum here.

Congee

Smooth and silky porridge served with pork, century and salted egg,

Steam Spinach Dumpling

A see through clear skin into the greenery inside is something that will catch your attention. A bite into these dumplings will reveal the crunchy prawn fillings and a taste of the healthy greens inside.

Braised Chicken Feet

A dish that will keep your mouth busy and leave your tastebuds enjoying the sweet flavours of abalone in the chicken feet. Stewed to achieve that flavoufull taste in every bite.

I'm very satisfied with their dimsum and great service. Tim Ho Wan has officially become my favorite dimsum restaurant chain.
