The interesting thing about this restaurant is that they serve you century eggs and ginger as you are waiting for your food. Not the best I've had but okay in quality. The egg yolk was notably gooey.
The first dish to come was Chiu Chow-style dumplings. I normally like these, but the ones served at this restaurant were rather dry. I've definitely had better elsewhere.
Next were the BBQ pork buns. These came steaming hot and were tasty. I especially liked the flavour of the seasoned meat inside the bun.
Then came another dish that I love: steamed beef balls. They tasted fine, but again, I've had better. I did enjoy the crunchiness of the water chestnuts although the beef balls themselves could have been more succulent.
A must-have dish at any dim sum meal is siu mai. These came piping hot and tasted quite good, despite the presentation which was lacking. Somehow the siu mai didn't look as fresh as I'd expected.
The steamed pork ribs weren't exactly what I'd hoped for. I couldn't taste enough of the black bean sauce, for one. Also, the pumpkins that were overpowered the taste of everything else.
The deep-fried bean curd dish was one of the best of the entire meal. I liked the fact that the special salt it was covered in wasn't too strong. It was seasoned just perfectly.
The last dish to arrive was har gao. There was something crunchy inside it, which I don't think is found in the average har gao. I can't say I cared for it. I would have preferred no crunch and just the soft shrimp meat.
Overall, I feel that Very Good Seafood Restaurant was better in my memory when I was a child. It's an okay restaurant if you just want to have a quick dim sum meal in a convenient part of Tsim Sha Tsui. However, the pickier diners may prefer a higher quality dim sum restaurant.
