Botani Dim Sum Restaurant (好味轩点心) — Restaurant in Perak

My family patronises this restaurant almost every week. Taste of food has improved overtime, especially charsiew bao, yam puffs, egg tarts, fried carrot cake n various prawn dumplings. Delicious.

Chilli sauces are served in plastic containers ware and worst of all, a disposable plastic spoon is stored inside it.

The egg yolk bun is too sweet to my liking. The best part of all is that the staff is all friendly and attentive. 🇲🇾👍😋 we will for sure drop by again whenever we go to...
