Come eat with me…

Something more about myself…I am not really a morning person. I would skip breakfast when I am in college but I make up for my hungry tummy during brunch. At home is rather much the same situation unless I am sure what I wanted to cook or have for brekkie.

One of my favourite breakfast place is Mitsu Tea House which is quite famous in Sibu for dim sum. It is located behind Rejang Medical Centre near the roundabout to the town centre. So far, I have gone there twice, once with Uncle Jimmy, my father’s teacher friend from SMK Bintulu and second with my aunty and cousin from Kuching. The shop will be open everyday by 7.30am and it will be crowded by 10am. The customers just keep coming. The place is two-storey. The ground floor is open air while the top floor is air-conditioned. We usually prefer to sit upstairs

The main attraction here is of course…dim sum!!! The menu is in both Chinese and English so ordering food or drinks will not be much of a problem. For drinks, they mostly have different types of tea BUT no coffee. Strange eh? Aside from dim sum, they serve rice and noodle dishes as well. My family and I come mostly for the dim sum and pastries though…AGAIN…it is ALL about the dim sum

Moving on to the FOOD…
The dim sum and pastries available range from RM3+ to RM4+ per plate.
These are some of my favourite dim sums. I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Siew Mai

Seaweed skin with stuffed meat & crabstick dim sum

Hakau (Stuffed prawns dim sum)

Yam & meat popiah

Stuffed meat dumplings

Meat & veggie stuffed beancurd dumplings

Now, for the pastries…

durian-filling puff pastries

These are my father’s favourite BUT be warned for those who have diabetes. The high sugar-content in the filling might just shoot up your glucose level. Personally, I am not a fan of anything related to the King of Fruits.

These are my favourite though…

Portugese egg tart

There are suppsed to be three on the plate but my cousin and I took one each. I stole a plate from the pastry-trolley because the waitresses were busy serving the customers dim sum The puff pastry is flaky and crunchy whereas the egg is creamy and soft I was not a fan of egg tarts until I ate these…hehe. I feel happy after eating.
