This 流沙包!!!!! Is!!! The!!! Bomb!!!!

Apart from this, I would recommend getting the siew mai but that’s about it - the others were quite mediocre..... considering how the carrot cake was mainly flour instead of the radish.

Actually, would even recommend you to skip this place 🤷🏻‍♀️

Clean and tasty. I am not a fan of liu sha bao but this one got me.
It's at holiday villa hotel so you can grab a bus from jb custom to KSL and cross over to HV hotel..
