Chaw Choon Dim Sum (超全点心)

Chaw Choon Restaurant is famous dim sum restaurant in Butterworth area. The main shop or the earliest shop is at Heng Choon Thian Road and they have expanded their business to another new shop at Ong Yi How Road near Raja Uda. They serve a wide variety of good dim sum with reasonable prices. They only open in the morning and it will be very crowded during weekends and public holidays. 

Photo below was taken during Grace and Chin See visit to Raja Uda on last Oct 2011, we went for dim sum breakfast at Chaw Choon restaurant (Jalan Ong Yi How branch) which is considered quite near to my apartment.

Next photos were taken last Saturday (21st Apr 2012) at Chaw Choon restaurant (Jalan Heng Choon Thian main shop). Me and BS stopped for dim sum breakfast at about 5.30am before going to Penang airport to take his early flight. It's still early and not many customer, i think we were the second customer, but still there was a wide variety of dim sum which were ready to be served.

 

Dining

Dim Sum at Tsing Yi （青衣城）

For those who want some experiences in Hong Kong Dim Sum, you may try it in Tsing Yi Complex. Actually Dim Sum is considered a lunchtime experience, however most restaurants now serve throughout the day and we decided to take it as our breakfast. We took MTR to Tsing Yi station in the morning about 9am, we could only do some window shopping at the complex as most of the shops were still yet to open for business.



We took Dim Sum at the "稻香" restaurant in the Tsing Yi complex, we're required to register and take our number and waited for about 20mins for our turn. The restaurant was crowded and we have to share the table with other people. The restaurant was comfortable and clean, the dim sum was delicious and not so oily, the price was also resonable, it was only HKD75 for our dim sum breakfast.

Dinner at Temple Street (油麻地 - 庙街）
You may also consider to have dinner at Yau Ma Tei Temple street for the famous claypot rice (煲仔饭）and fried oyster with duck egg (蠔饼）. (Highly recommended!!) It was not expensive but very delicious, we enjoyed the food and surely will come back for this for the next visit to HK.
