The good thing about our staycation is that we will traipse around the area to try out whatever that caught our fancy. The night before, we made plans for dim sum and so off we went towards Dim Sum Haus for breakfast.

Actually, I was still feeling pretty full from the dinner the night before. Read more about it here.
Walked for about 15 to 20 minutes from our hotel, and reached around 9.48am. It was almost a mistake to go without a reservation as the place is rather small and weekend dim sum is popular. Luckily for us, managed to snag a table but with time limit of 1 hour.

At that time, there were some promo code to get $2 off if we order via the app. It worked after fiddling for a while and as we were near the cashier, can confirm rather easily if the order went through.

| soya bean @$2.90 |

| Baked Salted Egg Custard Bun 脆顶流沙包 @$5.90 |
 |
| no joke |
The baked salted egg custard bun (liu sha bao) are no joke. Very rich, and be fascinated by the golden lava once you break it open. One is more than enough and probably good as ending to the meal.
 |
| Steamed Crispy Rice Roll with Shrimp 金网脆皮虾蒸肠粉 @$5.50 |
I'd recommend the steamed crispy rice roll with shrimp. That combination of smooth slippery and crunchy crispy plus sweet savoury shrimp, was just so good.
 |
| Pan Fried Mushroom Bun 香煎鲜菇包 @$5.80 |

Hmm, was a tad disappointed by the appearance of the mushroom buns as it was not looking very 'mushroom-like'. Taste wise, was decent savory earthy flavors.
 |
| Steamed Charcoal Chicken & Shrimp Dumpling" Hak Kam Kai Siew Mai" 黑金鸡烧卖 @$5.20 |
 |
| Steamed Pork & Shrimp Dumpling "Siew Mai" 香菇滑烧卖 @$5.10 |
For the siew mai, I only tried the pork and shrimp siew mai and they were juicy. Pretty good.
 |
| Fried Carrot Cake with X.O. Sauce @$6.70 |
Another dish that I really liked, was the fried carrot cake with XO sauce. There's something about this plate that I couldn't stop eating. The taugeh was good too! The flavors worked well together.
 |
| Chicken Feet in Five Spice |
Chicken feet was mild and gentle. The skin falls off easily as it was well steamed.
 |
| Japanese Dumpling 日式抄手 @$5.80 |
 |
| good sized |
The Japanese dumpling, is a twist to the usual spicy wantons. Nice and of a good sized but I prefer the original sauce for that spicy kick.
We were done by 10.30am and there was a queue outside.
