We\'re going for food. It is a bit of a strange entrance, I know. It is like we\'re going behind the scenes in the mall but it is this way. Food Garden. Alright guys we have three words for you! Tim Ho Wan (添好運)! Tell us all about it. What is this place? This is basically one of the best places to try dim sum (点心 - 點心) in all of Hong Kong. Yes. It is a Michelin starred restaurant yet it is affordable. So we\'re going to go in, we\'re going to order a lot of food and we\'re just going to scarf down some dim sum (點心 - 点心). And we\'ve been here before many years ago. We sound so old saying that we\'ve been here before. But the food is so so good and we\'re super excited to be back. Alright guys so we just finished placing our order. And this is what the menu looks like. You basically grab a pencil and you tick off the different dishes you\'re interested in. The first one has already arrived. Oh wow. So we got a little bit greedy because it is like three in the afternoon. We haven\'t had lunch yet so we ordered seven different dishes and we\'re going to be showing you those once they arrive. First one is here and this one is the sticky rice wrapped in a lotus leaf (Lo mai gai - 糯米雞 - 珍珠雞). This is one of our favorite ones. I love this one. So let\'s not waste any time. Let\'s just start unfolding this masterpiece. Wow. Lots of steam rising. Ooh! Look at that. It is a huge leaf. It is a huge one. And there you\'ve got the sticky rice with chicken I believe and a nice mushroom. So we\'re going to be sharing this. We\'ll be back in a second. The food is arriving so quickly here we haven\'t even touched the rice yet. And Sam\'s barbecue pork buns are here. The baked barbecue pork buns are already here. So our table is filling up we better start chowing down. Alright so I\'m just going to serve it right in to my bowl. Um, I\'ll go for the mushrooms a bit later. Oh there is more. There is more turnip cake. Oh my gosh. We\'ll get to that. Mmmm. Wow. So good. Well what do you think? I love it. He loves it. And there is more food. Oh my gosh. The funny thing is we literally sat down like ten minutes ago and the food has already arrived. Hey, they must have somehow known we were coming. Yeah. Super fast service. They can read our minds. So yeah, anyways that rice is just so good. So sticky and I just love the has a lot of flavor. And you can taste the meat. The meat is really chewy. It is very aromatic. Very aromatic. Once you unwrap it you get this nice whiff of like food smells. So much better than just normal rice. It is just so good. So yeah, in terms of price point that was a 146 Hong Kong dollars which was $18 dollars total. Nine dollars per person. Really good value considering like we had seven things. Seven things. Seven dishes and tea. Unlimited tea. And we are stuffed. We are so stuffed. So so stuffed. So if you\'re having Dim Sum (点心 - 點心) for the first time my biggest suggestion would just be to order confidently. Just order a whole bunch of different things and find out what it is you like because this is such an awesome meal.
