The Saturday morning before last, I went to taiji practice after missing a few weeks due to volunteer work commitments. steemit kept me away from breakfast. After practice, decided to go and try a new dim sum stall at a coffee shop nearby in Toa Payoh. Come #eatwithme.
由于去了做义几星期,好几星期没去练太极拳。上星期六早上终于回去但是为了steemit没来得及吃早餐就去了。练完拳后,决定去附近在大巴窑刚开不久的摊位吃点心。走,更我去吃点心。
Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Summer.
让大家继续读的时候,欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首,名为“夏天”。

Here is the local coffee shop. Seems even they want to be called food court nowadays. Don’t know why.
就是在这咖啡店。现在,很多咖啡店要改叫食阁。不知为何。
There are a few stalls here and the dim sum stall is at the end on the right.
这里有几个摊位,点心摊位就在右边。
Looking at the signs at the stall front, we made the decision what to order and I join the queue.
看看摊位前面的标志,决定点几样点心就去排队。
When queueing, I see where some of the fried and steamed dim sum are.
排队时,我看到一些油炸和蒸点心。

They don't have a menu so I thought the signs were all there were until they show me other items not on the menu.
他们没有菜单,所以我以为只凭标志点。到我的时候却问要不要其它点心。
Not ready to revisit the decision process, I just ordered what was decided and take my food to a table.
不想再花时间从新考虑,就没改变主意。点了。把托盘端到桌子上。

Siew mai is one of the common type of dim sum.

The Xiaolong Bao is uncomparable to Din Tai Fung but at the cost, I wasn’t complaining.

I started with the glutinous rice.

Finished. Get up and saw the ice cream man parked at the opposite row of shops and it was quite a hot day. Hmm….

Nope, still decided to go to the nearby stall here to get a slice of honey dew.
