Makan Hunts: Dim Sum @ The Paramount & Dinosaur Live

Thursday, January 26, 2012



Recently I've just been nuts about Dim sum & custard buns. Blogged about the delicious custard bun at Victor's Kitchen (click to read post) and Leon told me "Aiyah this is not even the best custard bun, I'll bring you to another even nicer one. That's really THE best custard bun"

Lol big claims! Hopefully it's as good as he claims to be uh!



Drove there and realized.. years ago i came here with him and his parents to have dim sum what!!! Chey, not a new makan place. hahaha an awesome dim sum place nonetheless.

So we came to The Paramount, it was about 12 noon and they were serving the dim sum menu yums, luckily we came just in time to beat the lunch crowd, after they were done serving all our dim sum we ordered the lunch crowd came rushing in. Phew!

The custard bun here was like more salted-egg ish while the one at Victor's Kitchen is more custard-ish so it's sweeter!

I like the salted egg custard bun at Victor's Kitchen more but he prefers the one here.

Hahaha while leon was getting the tickets, i took a picture of the rear end and told him that the dino has a fine ass. And he didn't upload that picture. -.-

I think he scared the bone-y and bare dino feel shy exposing his fine ass on my blog.
