譽滿坊 (Hong Kong)

There is a famous dim sum place in Happy Valley called 譽滿坊. It is a high-end restaurant with excellent food that is visited by many celebrities. Of course the prices are very expensive. Each dim sum item costs about $10 to $12 USD. It has an old Chinese style décor that makes you feel like you are back in the 70s. The restaurant has wooden tables and wooden chairs with a big 屏風 (standing screen). There are also posters from the 70s on the walls.

Every time we visit 譽滿坊, we order the same dishes that we like the most. Of all the dishes, I think 蝦餃 (steamed shrimp dumpling) is simply the best. There are two shrimp dumplings per order, and they are gigantic. The rice wrap is thin and sticky. There are at least three huge shrimps inside of each. The shrimps are chewy and bouncy.



The 燒賣 (Siu Mai) is another of our favorites. Each order comes with two of them. This dish is made from pork and shrimp minced together and put inside a yellow egg wrap. The portion of shrimp is very generous. To enhance the presentation and value, 譽滿坊 puts shark fin on top of the Siu Mai. I like the taste of pork and shrimp mixed together. The fat from the pork matches very well with the chewiness of the shrimp.



Two other dim sum that we ordered include the 牛肉丸 (minced beef balls) and 煎腸粉 (pan fried rice rolls).The minced beef balls are very moist and bouncy. The rice rolls are marinated with soy sauce and pan fried until brown. They are served with sweet sauce and peanut sauce.




All of the dim sum dishes are served hot and are freshly made per order. It is one of the best dim sum places and is definitely the fanciest one that I have been to.
