IG worthy dim sum in town 😍

If you’re suddenly craving for dim sum, but sick of the same old traditional dim sum, you need to give Social Place a try! With many cute and unique twists to the dishes, this place is not only a feast for the belly but a feast for the eyes too! 🫣

What we ordered:

🥕 Radish Cake Sauteed $9.80

One of the best radish cakes we’ve ever had! It was so crispy and crunchy on the outside yet remaining moist and soft on the inside. Flavour profile was spot on as well, 10/10 recommend to get this!

🐣 Chili Stir.F Chicken $22.80

This dish is more than meets the eye! The two egg shells looked as though they had egg yolks inside but interestingly enough they were actually some sort of mango/orange pop! Also they were really generous with the chicken and you really can’t go wrong with 辣子鸡!

🦞 Lobs Glutinous Puff $8.80

Was kind of confused by the texture and flavour profile at first bite but this one really grew on us. It was crispy on the outside yet mochi-like on the inside. The pastry was slightly sweet while the lobster filling was savoury, we’d say this dish was well-balanced and worth a try!

🖤 Crispy Charcoal Tofu $9.80

Would say the tofu was what you’d expect normal tofu to taste like, but the garnishing elevated the dish!

🍄 Truffle Shiitake Bun $7.80

Cute buns that looked like real mushrooms! Tried it for the novelty but we felt that the filling was too little and the truffle flavour wasn’t as strong as we expected.

🌶️ Hot & Sour Dumpling $7.80

We thought that this dish was flavourful, perfect level of spice and acidity, definitely worth trying if you like 红油抄手.

🦀 Chilli Crab XiaoLongBao $8.80

The chilli crab filling was spot on and we’d definitely order this again!

☯️ Yin Yang Har Gow $8.80

Nothing special about this one but we’d say the prawns they use were fresh and of good quality!

🐷 Yam Filled-Pig Buns $2.80

The orhnee filling was not too sweet, just the way we like it. All their buns were soooo soft and fluffy, really a delight to eat!

🌹 Rose Floret Bun $2.80

Initially we thought the rose bun was just a fancy plain bun but there was actually red bean filling inside!

🐷 Pig Pudding $6.80

We really came here because of this pig-pudding! Just look at how cute it is, you can even jiggle it! The taste however wasn’t really anything to wow about and we’d recommend sharing it.
