Dim Sum at Tim Ho Wan – Be Prepared For Foodporn
I finally managed to get a dim sum fix at the 1 Michelin-starred Tim Ho Wan at their latest branch located at Aperia, Kallang. The queue really isn’t too bad as it moves quite quickly but of course, if you’re in a smaller group, you’ll get seated a lot faster. This review is based on...
