Consider one of the oldest dim sum restaurant in Penang, Yong Pin recently revamped to a much brighter space to continue cater to the locals with their dim sum selections.

The central counter is where you head over to grab all your dim sum, self service and you just need to let them know what you want.

Separated into 3 section, each section you can get their steam, fried and bao.

I would say most of their items are tasty, considering a great place to go for some dim sum in the morning here at George Town.

Yum Cha lo! Helmed as one of the oldest dim sum restaurants in Penang, Yong Pin Dim Sum Restaurant has been in operations since 1981. Travel back in time as there’s no order chit or menu. Instead, the staff goes around each bearing a bamboo steamer with a variety of items. No doubt this place has evolved to a popular tourist stop, the patient staff makes recommendations specific to the point of what’s not to be missed and what’s only available on weekends.

Generally impressed with the freshness of their ingredients used in all their hand-made dim sum, especially those with prawns like the prawn wrapped in beancurd skin and har gao. One of the items that you should really try is the Thai-style beancurd. Piping hot silky tofu with a crispy exterior, dipped in the sweet chili sauce and shredded carrot. The addiction just somehow got a little out of hand.

The larger-than-usual char siew bao was handmade the traditional Cantonese way, shaped like a blooming flower. Encased in the center was diced roasted pork meat mixed in a sweet, thick, syrupy sauce evident of Hoisin. A pity the bun itself was a little dry and tough.

There were items that we didn’t get to try probably because we were near to their closing time, and that’s gonna be left till the next time! Till then, an authentic morning dim sum experience not to be missed.

🕗 6am-12pm daily, 7pm-12am (except Sundays). Cantonese dishes served during dinner.

Old fashion dim sum cannot get better than this. In a 2 unit shophouse, house this ancient tim sum tea house which serves great tim sum and cze char. Recommended the special 三更卖, 鸳鸯河粉 and 炒米粉. Also try the famous Kaya Bao, Yam Bao and 马来糕. Landmark: Opposite Hotel Kimberley Georgetown.
