Located in one of the shop lot rows in Bandar Puteri, Old Friend Hong Kong Dimsum is a hidden gem for me. I've been here for the 2nd time and being served with healthy choices of dimsum. I wouldn't say that the dimsum variety is much, but whatever they served is definitely healthy and they use lots of veggie as their dimsum ingredients.
Their dimsum average price is RM5.3 to RM8.3. I ordered basic dimsum must order items such as siew mai, prawn chee chiong fan and chicken feet. The siew mai I would say is one of the best after Jing Xuan's, whereby the chicken feet is quite unique, taste slightly black pepperish and definitely ain't the "commercial" chicken feet that you used to have in other dimsum spot. The chee chiong fan is nothing to brag about, I still prefer the chee chiong fan (and its belacan sambal) in Jing Xuan 😅But the siew mai and the chicken feet are something that you want to give a try in here :)
The shop is basically a family business. As soon as you sat down, an auntie will come with tray of frozen dimsum baskets, letting you choose whatever you want and she will steam it right away for you. While eating, I saw her husband sat down in one of the table and hand made the dumpling himself!
Note: unfortunately they don't serve Liu Sha Bao (it's my favourite too) because the uncle said it's not good for your heart health 😖
Tip: cash only, children friendly, finding parking is very easy.
