Canton Paradise (Sayarsan) — Restaurant in Yangon

The best milk tea in town I really love it. The dim sums are really tasty. The staff are really attentive and polite.

Update: 19th August 2022 I'm not sure I'll eat here again after today's experience. We went there for a family dinner. We ordered hor fun for our dad and other dishes. After all the dishes were served, hor fun wasn't still there so we asked the waitress why it was taking so long. She went to the kitchen and came back and told us that it was out of stock. She didn't even say sorry and left. My husband was so angry because my dad was waiting for it and we were literally there because he wanted to eat it. That was the first thing. The second thing happened after we paid the bill. I had a doubt about hor fun because they noted it down but we didn't get it. I never check the receipt but I checked it and yep, my instinct was correct. They charged us for it so we told another waitress about it. She refunded the money but again, didn't say sorry. I didn't trust them anymore so I looked at the receipt thoroughly again. The waitress was nervous and stood beside me to see if everything was OK. We paid over 230,000 kyats for the dinner. Although the dishes were delicious, I don't think their service is getting worse. At least they should say sorry for their mistake and its not even once. It's TWICE! When something was broken at the time we were having dinner, the whole restaurant said "Sorry!" out loud. But for the mistakes like ours, they were silent. I hope they train their staff to say sorry for their single mistakes instead of running away from...

Good experience at Canton Paradise to enjoy an essence of Hong Kong. It was a bit of task to make the waiter understand our vegetarian requirement but a manager came to our rescue. They have a different menu before 3 pm and a different one for post 3 pm. The before 3 pm one has dim sums 😊😊 !! Though enjoyed our dinner experience, it will be good to go back and try the before 3 pm experience. The wild mushroom noodles and crispy fried tofu was excellent. The fried Kai lan with garlic was decent. The chilled cucumber became better after the flavours of the sauce soaked in. The disappointment was Shimeji fried mushrooms. It looked extra fried and was very oily. However, on explaining this, the manager took the dish back and removed it from our bill. Parking wise the compound has good parking space but once RedDot Brewhouse opens, it could get a bit...

The essence is missing.

For a place that claims to have the essence of Hong Kong for a sign, the food is surprisingly poor. A lot of MSG used and the dim sum portions run pretty small.

Shrimp cheung fun

Skin was too thin and rolls too small. Barely any shrimps inside.

Pork Siu mai

VERY salty. So salted you needed to take big gulps of jasmine tea to wash it down.

Har gow

Wrapper fell apart when you touched it with the chopsticks. It shouldn't be like that.

Sticky rice with chicken wrapped in Banana leaf

Portion too small and they used black pepper in the sauce. Too salty.

The service with trainees was pretty bad too. They don't understand English and bring you the wrong things when you ask. This place is fine if you've never had good dim sum before but a terrible mimicking of HK dim...
