Holiday Tea Time at Tai Kung Mansion

Dad's car only gets one day off a week, so I make sure to plan something special for him! With his Chinese stomach, dim sum is definitely a great choice for lunch, and with our limited quota, we naturally opt for a place with quality. We quite like Tai Kung Mansion located in Lai Chi Kok, and this time we invited some friends to enjoy the tea together. I really like the exquisite Chinese decor of Tai Kung Mansion, and even the menu is meticulous and very attractive. After ordering tea, we chose everyone's favorite dim sum! In no time, the beautiful dim sum arrived at our table, and by then our stomachs couldn't help but growl. The Gold Yolk Spinach Sprout Lobster Dumplings at $84 are beautifully presented with a golden edge! Biting into it, the skin is chewy and the inside is full of fresh and sweet flavors, complemented by the refreshing spinach sprouts, making it very appealing. The Yellow Pepper Sauce Cod Dumplings at $92 are very much to my liking! The spicy yellow pepper sauce paired with the smooth cod brings out a fresh and enhanced flavor, making it one of the most surprising tastes I've had in dim sum in recent years. The Black Caviar Liquid Quail Egg Siu Mai at $92 is adorned with black caviar on top of the white siu mai, adding a touch of luxury! The quail egg hidden inside the siu mai bursts and the yolk flows out like a spring, and the dim sum chef's calculation of the yolk's liquid heart level is spot on and amazing, making it very satisfying to eat. I've always liked eating soup dumplings since I was young, so I ordered the Conpoy Winter Melon Soup Dumplings at $78 to reminisce! Inside, in addition to the fragrant winter melon puree, there are also tasty conpoys, and with the rich broth, this soup dumpling is more than satisfactory in flavor. The Black Hair Pig Salty Corners at $88 are fried crispy on the outside and not oily, while the inside is chewy and delicious, with a filling made of black hair pig meat that is especially fresh and tempting. The Spicy Duck Red Chicken Shred Spring Rolls at $76 are just to my taste! The crispy spring roll skin wraps the spicy duck red, and this gentle spicy flavor really makes me reminisce. The Dragon Emperor Crispy Rice Intestine at $78 has a smooth and thin layer of rice intestine, with crispy rice hiding the bouncy and fresh shrimp meat, making it very layered when eaten. Finally, we also ordered two desserts to sweeten our stomachs! The Gold Sand Winter Melon Handbag Crisp at $76 is too pleasing with its handbag shape! The outer layer is crispy and not oily, and the filling inside is the sweet winter melon puree, giving a familiar yet fresh feeling and taste. Finally, there's the Gold Leaf Nostalgic Sesame Roll at $64! The glossy sesame roll is smooth and the sesame flavor is super rich, and the gold leaf decoration makes it pleasing to the eye and delicious to eat. Tai Kung Mansion's ingredients and chef team are also of very high quality. Friends who like high-quality dim sum should definitely give it a try.
