I had tried so many shops around and found most of them were not having much prawns in the dim sum. Moreover, the filling for all the pau I had was not impressing too.<BR/><BR/>Mr BBQ is a rather unique place for Taiping at the moment. I hardly can find much entertainment outlets in Taiping. I hope they have more in time to come.<BR/><BR/>CRIZ LAIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14236091977189115069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7051183697622916451.post-87323709060473190782008-12-19T16:52:00.000+08:002008-12-19T16:52:00.000+08:00The dim sum is so....cheap,though not so many choi...The dim sum is so....cheap,though not so many choices.Thumbs up to Mr BBQ oso.SuwEihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06671209085613441482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7051183697622916451.post-73589860668409306272008-12-19T15:50:00.000+08:002008-12-19T15:50:00.000+08:00Oh my.. it sounds so romantic for a date... ;)Oh my.. it sounds so romantic for a date... ;)Selbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07928176267795475683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7051183697622916451.post-18028810469364476632008-12-19T15:48:00.000+08:002008-12-19T15:48:00.000+08:00the nam yu pau is called kaw yuk pau in my hometow...the nam yu pau is called kaw yuk pau in my hometown :). alas, taiping is one place i would love to visit, but have yet to go.schttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054158641858408952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7051183697622916451.post-67527018455901969372008-12-19T15:32:00.000+08:002008-12-19T15:32:00.000+08:00Joe : but lately time flies by. hahaha ...good. ge...Joe : but lately time flies by. hahaha ...good. <BR/><BR/>genuiness : haha, a bit compromise loh. the skin so thick and stuck to each other, the whole lump of pork meat fell when i was trying to pick at them.<BR/><BR/>Allie : the squids cooked in those intense curry powder-gravy were good. but some may lament the excessive curry powder aroma.<BR/><BR/>Darren Lee : oh, cheap as well? that's what J2Kfmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796494199340657874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7051183697622916451.post-18614544168451350812008-12-19T14:23:00.000+08:002008-12-19T14:23:00.000+08:00Cheh.
