Comfortable and clean environment

Master Chef LDT started their business with two dishes that they were skilled in- the Superior Soup Xiao Loong Bao and their 'la mien' which they have called it their signature Master Chef Noodles. It is when they realized that their valued customers deserve much more that they have decided to expand their concept from a two-dish specialty restaurant to a cafe which caters to all sorts of tastebuds.

Master Chef Superior Soup Xiao Loong Bao RM12.90

Their xiao loong bao was up to expectation as the thin skin was skillfully made to bundle up sweet superior soup and a ball of pork meat. Every dumpling was a pouch of treat. I handled each with utmost care to not spill the precious soup.

Onion Sauce Wanton with Master Chef Noodle RM11.90

Springy and toothsome was their house-made noodles. Seasoned with spicy sauce, it is served with three wantons which contains well prepped ingredients, including prawns.

Thai Style Prawn Parcel RM7.90

The needs of those who like the sight of bamboo baskets on their table is taken care of by their dim sum menu. Each dish is exclusively made to bring out the flavour of the steamed ingredients the original Hong Kong way.

Dim sum, one of my favourites for breakfast

Steamed Custard Salted Yolk Bun RM6.90

Salted egg has been capturing the hearts of people through lau sar pau long before we thought the frenzy started. Feel the elation of having the savoury golden filling spill when the soft bun is torn apart although it is very well expected it will happen.

Deliciously flowy filling

Feel the burst of flavours of salty and sweet when eating the lau sar pau

Dried Oyster Vegetable Groundnut Porridge RM10.90 (1pax) RM18.90 (2 pax)

Try their smooth Dried Oyster Vegetable Groundnut Porridge which is invested with generous amounts of dried oysters to give that appetizing taste. This bowl contains homemade goodness that even my mother approves of.

Korean Rice Bowl with Chicken Chop RM11.90
