Last weekend , after a though night out , my boyfriend decided to take me for dim sum as he knows that they are my absolute craving ! I could eat them every day , but alright: nothing better than a dim sum feast on a Sunday morning after a long night out !
Well, by morning I mean 3 pm for us ! haha
He wanted to try Ovologue in Wanchai but by the time we took a taxi and arrived there , the restaurant was closed ! I think this was my lucky day and we ended up walking towards Fook Lam moon that I've been dying to try for so long ! So we arrived there and it was already closing! I think they read the sadness in my eyes and told us to hurry up to oder and have a sit !
finally time has come to enjoy Fook Lam moon Dim sum!
The group’s flagship eatery; this Fook Lam Moon restaurant is situated in the Wan Chai district of Hong Kong island, right next to the commercial districts of Admiralty and Central.

I think this dish has to be my favorite of the day together with the wantons but here I got to apologize as I got overwhelmed and just ate them up before I realized I totally forgot to take pictures haha .
To go back to the bean curd skin rolls, one word : Heaven ! just go there , try them and then you can die and go to heaven !
Deep Fried prawn spring rolls 60 HKD
I usually don't love spring rolls: too oily , not crunchy enough , the filling is way too often tasteless... well Fook lam moon proved me wrong and I am glad about that ! Now I now I love spring rolls and I will come back here to get some more of those yummy little ones !

The flavors in this soy sauce and fresh chilies in by far the best I have ever tasted !
