 Here is the Full Menu of the Eatery/Restaurant.
Prices are Accurate as of the Date of the Post.

This Food Stall is located in a Local Kopitiam called "Uncle Wang Foodcourt". I thought the Stall's Logo looked Cute so I thought I'd give this a try.

Checked out their Google Maps Reviews and apparently their Buns and CCF were popular. CCF was not available when I was there that day though, so I tried their Buns. In addition, the Stall Lady recommended their Siew Mai so I also tried it.


A09 Siew Mai = RM4.90

The Chilli Sauce given with this is a Garlic Chilli that tasted like its most likely from a Supermarket Package Bottle. Nothing really special about this. The Siew Mai itself is Very Small and taste is predominently Porky with a Slight hint of Shrimp. In addition, there are also bits of Carrots to add abit of Veggie Crunch. All in all, this is a very Standard Kopitiam type of Siew Mai. I do like how nicely its wrapped though.

Personally I don't feel this Siew Mai is worth RM4.90. If comparing Kopitiam Dimsum level, 福振興餐室 Hock Chiang Hin Dim Sum that I reviewed previously in the Jalan Wong Ah Fook area is Cheaper at RM3.00 and its much bigger size and taste nicer.

A04 Char Siew Bao = RM3.30

Size is quite big for this one, and it uses a Slightly Unusual Yellow Coloured Dough. I don't think this is Pumpkin Dough. The Yellow Colour is either achieved using Turmeric Powder or Yellow Food Dye.

Culinarily, I thought it was Unusual why they went with this Unconventional Colour as I felt the Traditional White Colour for a Bao would feel more Natural because I feel Modern Consumers nowadays are looking for as Natural Ingredients as possible and avoiding Bright Coloured Foods due to Artificial Food Colour Dyes. Maybe they want their Baos to stand out from other Baos? The Bao Dough taste like very Normal Kopitiam type, not particularly Fluffy. The Minced Pork Bao Filling is the Sweet Version and its also the Kopitiam type of taste, not really that Special.

A01 Braised Pork Belly Bao = RM4.60

Also known as "Kong Ba Bao", I bought this because it was the one that looked the most Appetizing. It uses the exact same Yellow Dough as their Char Siew Bao. The Amount of Meat and Fats within are Generous but I realized the Filling here is actually the Same Filling used in their Char Siew Bao. If you are expecting an Authentic Kong Ba Bao, this is not it.

Hahaha they simply use Larger Pork Pieces for their Kong Ba Bao and Minced the Same Filling into Smaller Pieces for their Char Siew Bao. Abit Cheating to do this but I totally get why they did this as they only need to cook 1 Meat Filling for Multiple Usages. I reckon this Meat Filling is probably also used in their Other Meat-Based Baos that I have not bought.

I'm not going to fault them for using the Same Meat Filling as this is not a Gourmet Bao Stall, its really more for a Quick Breakfast Place for the Local Working Folks, so Quantity, not Quality is their Focus here. The Food here are not Dim Sum Quality but are meant more to Quickly Fill Up the Belly.

I think I was Overcharged?

Why the Average Score you may ask? Well, other than how Average everything tasted, another reason was because I was Actually Overcharged. To be fair, the Stall Lady herself is Friendly and Welcoming. I have no issues with her Customer Service attitude actually.

If you see the Menu Pricelist photo that I posted, the Siew Mai should cost RM4.90 but she charged me RM5.20 instead. I know she charged me RM5.20 because thats how much she told me the Siew Mai cost when I paid the bill. I only realized that I was overcharged, when I reviewed the photo of the Menu Pricelist while I was eating. So my Total Bill should have been RM12.80, not RM13.10.

I can only think of a few reasons why I was overcharged:

1) Legit Human Oversight.
Maybe she really did make an Error?

2) Menu Price List is Inaccurate.
Maybe the Siew Mai really does cost RM5.20 instead of RM4.90 and it wasn't updated?

When I realized the different price she charged for the Siew Mai, I purposely did not go up to her to inform and waited quietly to see if she will react, which she never did. Don't worry, I never kicked up a fuss, and just left quietly. In fact for any mistakes committed by any Eateries, I will just observe silently, leave quietly and just report on my Experience here.

I did not give this Stall my Lowest Score because it may well be a Real Honest Mistake. As I mentioned, the Stall Lady was Polite and Friendly. But I also cannot ignore the Fact that the Food here overall just aren't that Special for me. This wasn't a Hidden Gem, and I feel you can skip this place. If you would like to visit though, do take note of the Price you're charged at.
