Went to this dim sum restaurant the second time within a month.  It was not particularly good or bad last time, but this time is obviously bad, so the review title is an understatement.  I ordered the minced dried squid ("cheung yu") and pork steam rice, and "sin chuk" roll.  The rice came first, the minced pork has the "melt-in-your-mouth" texture because it is mostly fat and no meat or minced dried squid at all.  I could not find the minced dried squid or pork meat texture at all !  I ate one

Went to this dim sum restaurant the second time within a month.  It was not particularly good or bad last time, but this time is obviously bad, so the review title is an understatement.  I ordered the minced dried squid ("cheung yu") and pork steam rice, and "sin chuk" roll.  The rice came first, the minced pork has the "melt-in-your-mouth" texture because it is mostly fat and no meat or minced dried squid at all.  I could not find the minced dried squid or pork meat texture at all !  I ate one third or half of the mince pork, more than what I should.  The "sin chuk" roll skin "fu chuk" is also way too soft, it is literally mushy!  It is like they don't care about their food quality and reputation, what a shame!  Did any one of the Tim Ho Wan win a star in 2014 ?!  To me, an average greasy spoon dim sum restaurant is better than this one!
