Food Review: Hwa Nam Restaurant

13:38:00


This old school Dimsum shop resembles those in Hong Kong, where you pick what you want from the counter and they will heat it up and serve you. Hwa Nam Restaurant is located along Upper Thomson Road. It's a coffeeshop, prices are very affordable and there's No GST and No Service Charge.





Upon seated, a plate of achar and chilli will be served to you. After that, you walk to the counter where you can order what you like. There is no menu for the dim sum.


Milk Tea (Teh) - $1

Normal Coffee shop milk tea. 

Iced Tea ( Iced Teh-O) - $1.20

Siew Mai - 

The siew mai has generous amount of meat but slightly salty.

Har Kau (Prawn Dumpling) - 

The har kau wasn't fantastic. The har kau skin was too thick but the prawn was very fresh and juicy.

Steamed Pork Ribs -

The steamed pork ribs was pretty normal. The pork ribs was soft, tender and flavorful. The sauce was savory and not over salty.
