Sweetened Hasma with Red Dates (RM58)
Comment: One of my favorite chinese desserts!
The food here was quite decent for me but I certainly expect higher quality from this kind of fine-dining Chinese restaurant. The dim sum did not impress me because I didn't find much difference compared to the other dim sum restaurants. However, it was worth the try!
