Tim Sum Buffet Archives

I have always miss China food, no matter in which province, and one of the latest Cuisine which is available in Zuan Yuan Chinese Restaurant which is at One World Hotel is presenting us Shanghainese Cuisine that offers for a very limited time only.

Shanghainese cuisine is know for its rich and sweet flavors, and to get more authentic of the food, there are 4 special invites chef (Chef Terry Yu Ning, Chef Fanny Le Fei, Chef Lion Yu Sheng and Chef Navy Yang Tian Hai) from The Eton Hotel, Shanghai, flew in all the way just to prepare this special menu.

Last round i had came here for their Tim Sum buffet and it was quite satisfying .(click here)

To get it more Chinese ambiance, they brought in Guzheng which is a traditional chinese instruments to play all the classical songs which I just love it.

Start off our dinner with Three ShanghaiStyle Appetizer 上海三喜冷菜 as they were cold dishes that normally to start of with. . .

Among those 3 I love the prawns the most, with its sauce which is a bit sweet and aromatic and the prawns is very fresh. .

Hot and Sour Soup ‘Shanghai’ Style, is quite different from my expectation and Shanghainese style on this is more on peppery spicy. .

Saute’ed Shredded Beef with Honey Beans 蜜豆炒牛肉丝

Braised whole Eel with Soya Sauce, which the meat is very soft and there are actually 4-5 eels are in this place and we have to eat it with care as this is the first time I eat eel with its whole form as it is, and filled with bones. . Love how they way they prepare it by slicing the meat and just eat it from the top . .

Braised Chicken with potato, with the sauce well coated on the chicken and the chicken been cook to perfection that its soft and juicy.

One of my favorite is Sauteed Scallop with ‘Bok Choy’ and Mushroom, as the whole vegetable dish is cook with wok hei and bok choy just soak the juice along . .

I have always hear this name Sweet Scented Osmanthus Rice Cakes 桂花糕, in most of the TVB drama series back during those Chinese Emperor time which I have not tried before, and I just love the texture of it, which is abit like muar chi style, soft and soggy yet have to chew a while to swallow. .

Steamed Vegetable Dumpling, also another one of my favorite as they just add in one type of vegetable that make it a bit salty with natural taste, and this dip with a bit of chili sauce, just perfect.

It was quite some time ago that me and my friends had eat all you can dim sum. As I remember on the last round was my colleague keep arranging Tim Sum buffet till got phobia of it and stop for quite some time till last weekend which was organize by Ken.

Then we head to Zuan Yuan Chinese Restaurant which is located at 1st floor of One World Hotel, PJ that pamper most of the tim sum lovers with their latest menu with an unbelievable price.

With chinese vase, and some look alike artifact had decorated the whole wall upon the nearby entrance.

When we were walk through pass the entrance, I just love their interior design with luxurious interior furnishing with traditional colour of red, silver and gold.

If you feel that you need more privacy or need some gathering, the sure do have VIP rooms to cater on your needs.

Not long after we were seated down, then the table was bombard by all the variety tim sum, while we were busy taking pictures of it, it never stop till the whole table is full, then I was like Wow! Wonder how are we going to finish it.

In this buffet I got shock that we get to order ‘Steamed Seafood Dumpling with Superior Stock and Shark’s Fin’ or as the picture below. I love this very much, with its strong taste that been steam for long time, and the seafood dumpling remains soft and filled with ingredients. Recommended this compare with another one.

‘Braised Shark Fin’s with Crab Roe’ is a bit starchy and added on with vinegar, it just taste awesome.

I just like their vinegar taste that make the whole soup so nice.

‘Water Prawn Noodle’ is served next in the set menu with a plate each. Chewy juicy prawns hints the freshness of it and end with an egg top on it.

The ‘Chili Oil’ is something that I constant attack on, as its very fragrance, a bit salty and with dried shrimps and not very spicy.

‘Pan Fried Shanghai Dumpling’ I always bite open the tip of it and stuff it with Ginger Vinegar that served upon. Just loving it as its been pan fried well on one side of it.

This is my frist time with ‘Steamed mince Squid Ball with Dried Octopus and Crab Stick’ as I thought it was a sushi ball, it taste simple and nice.

‘Steamed Shark’s Fin Dumpling’

‘Steamed Teo Chew Sui Mai’

‘Steamed Prawn Dumpling’

As I always love to have my plate of ‘Barbeque Char Siew Chee Cheong Fun with Sesame Seeds’ added with their chili oil…

‘Shredded Dried Scallop Chee Cheong Fun’ as when bite on the scallop its juicy and springy, like the feeling of it.

‘Flaky Barbeque Char Siew Pastries’

Certainly this taste unique as ‘Taro Dumpling Wu Kok Style with Scallop and Miso Sauce’ the sauce itself had blend in well with the taste of the wu kok, a bit salty and crispy edge.

‘Deep Fried Prawn Dumpling and Salad Dressing’

‘Fried Loh Pak Kou’

‘Oven Baked Mini Egg Tarts with Caramel and Cinamon’

‘Oven Baked Cheese Tart’

‘Deep Fried Sesame Balls with Peanut Paste’ crispy on the outer part and inside filling is warm and I like it. I had a plate of these myself.

With every Tim Sum that I always go, I must always end it with their desert range. With this two Behind: ‘Double-Boiled Crystal Pear with Fresh Ginseng, ‘Chilled Aloe Vera Infused with Lemon Grass’ as both were rather chilling and refreshing, which is good for me to cool down to get the satisfaction of it. Surely a must have desert to end off your meal.

It was a great new discovery that with just only RM48++ we are getting such luxurious range of it. Definately I will be coming back for second round~ is available on daily lunch from 12pm – 2.30pm.
