Victor's Kitchen

Located at Sunshine Plaza, this humble little shop attracts many people each day. Even before the shop opens it door at 1030 daily, there are people queuing outside for their authentic Hong Kong dim sum.



No queue sign but there's people queuing...haha



The tables are arranged pretty closely to each other, which reminds me of the Cha Chan Tang (café) in Hong Kong.  
 

流沙包 (custard bun)




This 流沙包 (custard bun) is no joke, the bun skin is very soft and the custard is superb.

The bun is soft and the custard filling has this rich salted egg flavor.

Be careful when you bite, as the custard filling will ooze out, sinful! It's a bit on the oily side as you can see a layer of oil on top of the custard filling.

Definitely must try!!!

Sausage yam cake 



This reminds me of the yam cake my grandma use to make when I was young.  A very homestyle feel

Victor’s sausage yam cake is fragrant and savory. And there’s lap cheong inside, something not quite common nowadays. It would be better if the texture is slightly softer.

Crystal bun



To my surprise, the crystal bun has this QQ texture. For some of those I have eaten, the skin is either too thick or hard. This is just right

Shrimp dumpling (Har kow)


Polo bun



The polo bun is crispy on the top, soft on the bottom and it goes very well with the char siew filling.

Siew Mai




It's unique as it comes in a bowl rather than in slices, which we often see. It's soft and goes very well with the sauce. Best to eat it when it's piping hot.

Steam pork ribs


Phoenix claw in abalone sauce



Pretty flavourful and tender.  I enjoyed it.

Baby Belling

Been baking for 10 years and decided to invest on a reputable oven. Read many review on this oven call Baby Belling, well known for its quality, durable and maintain even heat temperature during baking. But this oven is not commonly found in Singapore, I have looking around, called the distributor and it's coming to Singapore. Quickly go around looking for it and saw it in a electronic store. This oven has those old fashion look and is really solid, the door is pretty thick and closed really tight. You can find more details of the oven here. http://www.belling.co.uk/baby-belling Wasting no more time, I quickly place an order for it and have to wait 2 days for it to arrive. Finally today, I got my new oven!!!! My Baby.. came wrapped up nicely... After unwrapping it. It has also 2 hobs on top of the oven, cool.... Peeling off the protective sticker on the stainless steel door   The inner p...

Bhutan Day 2 - Thimphu

This picture was taken from the window of my hotel room. Saw the big soccer field? That's the place where the current 5th king held his marriage in 2011. The celebration lasted 3 days and 3 nights!  The locals came to catch a glimpse of the wedding ceremony and also to give their blessings to the King and Queen. University of Buddhist Studies After an early breakfast, we set off to the University of Buddhist Studies which is located at about 2800m above sea level. We had to take a hike up, which lasted about 45 mins This university is equivalent to any other universities where the students (monks) have to attend lectures and examinations. These monks are highly respected in the country and people  come to them to seek their blessings. It was a good morning exercise for us. I like the cool, clean fresh air, the gentle sunlight make it a good weather for hiking. I was glad that I had prepared myself physically for this trip. However, the high altit...

May birthday celebration

I decided to bake a Manhattan cheesecake for the birthday babes and hunks in my office. Baking a Manhattan cheesecake requires tons of patience. This is liken to baking the kueh lapis except that the cheesecake has only 3 layers, it is still a painstaking process nonetheless! To bake a good Manhattan cheesecake, each layer has to be baked separately. Firstly, you have to lay the 'foundation' - the graham biscuit. Once the 'foundation' is laid, you can proceed to lay the cheese cream and finally top up with cream. There is nothing more rewarding than to know that my colleagues  love the cheesecake - it was pure divine, to die for ... isn't too cheesy. My labour of love has not been in vain!                                                     One last piece for grab, hurry!
