I Love Yum Cha: A new dim sum place at Kepong Manjalara!

I was misunderstood when I first saw the signboard of I love Yum Cha, initially thought it was some great place hangout for bubble milk or coffee but it was definitely a beautifully mistake. I love Yum Cha, a restaurant which served you to truly handmade Hong Kong style 一盅三件 dim sum with pot of Chinese tea. Or, I suppose to say I love 叹茶 (if you able to read Chinese) after try on their food. I'm going to spam you with tons of authentic Hong Kong dim sum, portion consider huge in the little steam basket. All of them were freshly made, I can tell from every bite. :)

As I mentioned earlier, I love Yum Cha is a great place to taste Chinese tea. If you have plenty of time, please slow down steps to enjoy the art of Chinese tea. Gordon demo the proper way of making Old Pu Er, no kidding, it's definitely a deep knowledge from ancient.

Pu Er was served in up-side-down. Upper thin cup capture hot scent (热香)of tea, where cold scent (冷香)remained in the tea (茶汤). It was amazing to know same pot of tea smell different within few minute in different temperature. Wanna know more? Visit I love Yum Cha, Gordon willing to share with all of you. This humble man know lots of tea knowledge than I do.


Interior of I love Yum Cha, pretty cozy place. Great for group craving or family dining (They have too much options for chosen, great for sharing)
