When I’m craving for some Chinese dim sums, I know where exactly to go. Tim Ho Wan is one that offers the best in the industry. I first tried this dim sum restaurant chain based from Hong Kong in one of its branches in Glorietta and since then, I frequent the place. I took my family at Robinson’s Place Manila branch couple of months ago as I’m pretty sure they’d love the food here.
Food is good as always! My family and I enjoyed lunch in this branch. Ordered dimsum, noodles, rice and their pork buns. Tofu with pork floss remains one of the best 👌🏼 hehe
The first time I tried Tim Ho Wan is in HongKong. I'm glad they brought it here in the PH and did not compromise taste. Everything tasted exactly the same as the original. One of the new dishes I've tried and loved is the tofu with pork floss. It's fried on the outside, but really soft and pillowy on the inside. Other favorites would include the baked bbq bun.
Food: Never miss their pork buns, hakaw and milk tea!
Place: Always on top of the list for Chinese food. Resto was less crowded when we got here even at lunch time. Staffs were efficient, too.
Price: Worth your bucks!
Favorite HK style restaurant! I love their spinach dumpling with shrimp, vermicelli roll with sweet and sesame sauce, wasabi salad prawn dumpling, and of course, their baked pork BBQ buns. Two main dishes that is always on our table would be the spinach dumpling with shrimp and the wasabi salad prawn dumpling! Super good!

If you want to go for tasty Chinese food, this place is just always on the list. They got a wide array of choices.
It's definitely not cheap but worth the price too.
Here's what we got :
Spinach dumpling with Shrimp
Baked Bun with BBQ Pork
Vermicelli Roll with Shrimp
Chow Mien Stir Fried Noodle
The Baked Bun is to die for.. and it hasn't changed since this restau was launched here in the PH.
Tim Ho Wan still serves the best Pork Buns in town! How they make them soft, crumbly, and sweet with savory barbecue pork inside is a real mystery.
The Chicken and Sausage Rice is as good, especially with its signature soy sauce. I suggest pairing this with stir-fried, crisp vegetables for a balanced meal.
Just typing these dishes has made me crave for a visit very soon. I also look forward to have their savory Radish Cake and their number of dumpling options. More branches, please!

Very fast service. I always like how Chinese food here is so basic but so easy to eat. I have cough so I wanted the plain congee to avoid oily food that are not good for my throat. Vermicelli tastes artificial to my mom maybe because it’s the new vegetarian food on the menu? Need to confirm that one but I really liked it since it has this unique Chinese leaf spice that is very distinct. Was not able to take a photo of the Pork Buns and steamed spinach and shrimp but they were good too.
My Order:
Steamed Spinach Dumpling with Shrimp
Spare Ribs Rice
Food Quality
I have nothing but good things to say about the quality of their food. The dumplings were freshly steamed and generously stuffed. The spare ribs were flavorful without being too overpowering. All in all the tastes were balanced and light.
Food Portions
For its price, Tim Ho Wan’s servings are adequate, though not generous, specially for the spare ribs rice.
Service
The waiters were alert and prompt though they weren’t as polite as in their other branches.
