Restoran Zui Le Xuan Dim Sum — Restaurant in Perak

the har gao was pretty good, i like that the prawn taste fresh and has a slight crunch to it. the skin is just right, not too thick or too thin.

the siew mai was good, with succulent meat in every mouthful, contrasted with the texture of a small amount of water chestnuts that was not too overpowering. tried the mala siew mai as well but not a fan of it, does not seem to match the taste of siew mai.

the lor mai kai was one of the better ones that i have tried, rice is soft and flavourful but not mushy. the chicken is not too salty and just nice portion.

other good ones include the egg tarts, fried yam dumplings and osmanthus jelly. the tart and the filling are fragrant, the crust is not too crumbly until it falls apart like some places. fried yam dumpling does not taste overly fried and packed with lots of ingredients. the osmanthus jelly was not too sweet and comes with wolfberries which complements the osmanthus. however, the jelly could have been a little softer as it was on the harder side.

the other items that we ordered tasted quite normal, it's good to try but not something i would order again.

overall, the queue was quite fast as we reached around 10am and waited only around 10 minutes for our table. however, it was a shared table with other diners which was okay for us, although it would have been nice if they had informed us beforehand.

the service was good, staff was attentive and informative to provide introduction of their wide variety of dishes. they also cleared our dishes fairly quickly to make space for the next diner. although the place has no air con, it is not hot and the ambience reminds me of hk style dim sum, which makes it feel more traditional and authentic. they even speak in cantonese when they are pushing the carts around with dim sum, but also able to speak in chinese. the pricing of the food was quite reasonable as well, although the location is quite...

One of the popular dim sum joints frequented by locals. Restaurant is clean but not air conditioned. It's Ipoh, air is clean and there's that homely vibe. So how good is the dim sum, overall nearly all the items we tried is good. Very traditional tasting. Not overly salty and you don't taste the presence of MSG. Probably there's none. The "Siew Mai" is always the benchmark because literally all Dim Sum restaurants serve it. Their "Siew Mai" is tasty, meaty and natural tasting. The freshness of the meat scores the points here. The rest is equally good except for the Chives Dumpling (Kow Choy Kow), the skin was on the thick and chewy side). Their "Char Siew Bao" is more on the saltier tasting instead of sweet usually found in KL. The dough is spongy and didn't stick my teeth but good enough to quiet chatty companions. Egg tart is good, like Thong Kee's but better crust. Finish off with their signature dessert the Osmanthus Jelly (Kwai Fah Gou). It's fragrant from the flowers and sweet with wolf berries. Awesome! Overall a nice place from the usual touristy spots. The lady boss is very welcoming and always ensuring you are being served. Food here has the right balance of taste and flavour. Price is affordable too. Generally Ipoh style is skewed towards salty. Literally no or low sugar content. Try the chili sauce and you'll...

A very good alternative dim sum place for Ipoh folks. The customers were mostly locals. They had some dim sums not seen in other shops. Service was friendly and good. Despite narrow shop lot space, they still try to maintained a heated dim sum push cart; thus bringing back the nostalgia feelings of traditional dim sum place. While we were there, it was just 90 minutes before closing, yet the whole place (3 shop lots) was still crowded. Taste of dim sum was generally good, price reasonable. Will definitely come again. 20230809 2nd Visit Business was very good, place congested as always. Food was good,hot and tasty. Items were served immediately as soon as orders were placed. This was unlike some less popular dim sum restaurants where dim sum needed to be taken out from cold storage and then steamed for at least 30 minutes before these can be served. Had a good talk with the cashier, who was actually the wife of the owner cum Chief Chef. The Chef was actually a former dim sum chef who helped to build up the name for Fu Shan. When he left many years ago, he brought along he amazing culinary and management skills to set up...
