I had reviewed that restaurant last month but if you are interested to read it again CLICK HERE. For the benefit of those who are not familiar with this restaurant, all the dishes are cooked with tea leaves or tea itself. Besides the 2 dishes that i had already tried on my last visit (the Vegetable 4 in 1 with pickle and Herbal Steamed Egg) , we had 2 more additional new dishes and 4 different types of herbal soups. One pot of soup cost RM5.00 but i must warn you that one pot of soup is just something like a mini teapot which could only fill about 6-7 tea mini cups full of soups. For the 8 of us we ordered 4 different types of soup so we could at least taste the variety. There were the Burdock Tea Soup, Ginseng Tea Soup, Tea & Wine Soup and Lotus Root Tea Soup. Each of us had 1 tea cup of each type. Despite the small portions, it was just enough to warm our growling tummies. I especially liked the Tea & Wine Soup. The ginseng one was quite good but i don’t really like ginseng so… uhm… no thank you! The HM Beancurd *err..i forgot what HM stands for…sorry, was super tasty. The beancurd was very smooth and i loved the ‘tau si’ (i don’t know what’s it call in English so if anyone of you know please tell me) on top of it. We also had the Bean Paste Fish but i am ashamed to say that i did not manage to take any photo of that dish. Why? Coz i was busy gobbling up the fish! It’s a clear and mild dish with thinly sliced pieces of fish, tomato, capsicum, carrot and cauliflower… if i remember well. Again, as i had said many times on my first review, i love this restaurant to pieces. Great food, excellent service and worth a visit!

HM = Home Made kwa ??? Just a guess…
LOL i don’t think so
You already know the answer to ‘tau si’. You also ate Bean Paste Fish right? I assume this is ‘Tau Si Yue’.
Hmmmm…that is new i didnt know they open a restaurant. But overall, would you recommend anyone to go there? My parents are kinda fussy when it comes to chinese food. The last time i brought them to The Hakka Restaurant at Curve, my dad was complaining about the price and how normal the taste was….
simon>> but what is tau si called in english ler… my england veli powderful haha
vampy>> it’s a nice place with nice ambience. If your parents love tea then they’ll like this place lor. but i must warn you, the dishes taste light but aromatic. if u are looking for a more heavy tasting stuffs with all the spices then this is the wrong place
but it’s worth a try coz i like it.
