As a self-proclaimed foodie, I'm ashamed to admit that I've only just tried Tim Ho Wan very recently. And I'm very disappointed with myself for having tried their Baked Bun with BBQ Pork just now! 😭 I mean, that milky and creamy bun with the savory filling is something divine. I finally get what all the hype has been about. And that hype is well-deserved.
Not my first time and definitely not my last. I like how fast the orders come. The attendants are quick and fast to respond.
I love their dimsums, congees and their dumplings. I specially love their hot barley drink.
A lot of pork buns in the metro tries to copy tim ho wan, but nothing comes close. Tim ho wans pork buns with the crumbly top, warm bread and extremely juicy and flavorful pork filling is still the bomb. I always order the buns whenever I pass by Tim Ho Wan and it never disappoints.
AMBIENCE
It was very crowded during lunch time, but surprisingly, we were in the queue for about three minutes only. As always, we just needed to write down how many orders of each dish we wanted.
FOOD & BEVERAGE
Baked Bun with BBQ Pork had a crunchy coating and the meaty filling was fairly hot. Glutinous Rice with Lotus Leaf was addicting and easy to break apart with chopsticks. We just ate off the leaf so it wouldn't stick all over the plate. Prawn Dumpling and Steamed Spinach Dumpling with Shrimp were very hot inside and the shrimps were big! Iced Tea was very cold and sweet.
SERVICE
Staffers were extremely quick to get us drinking water. I can say the same for our orders and they cleaned our table as soon as most of the containers were empty already. Orders were efficiently crossed off the sheet used to track pending orders.
We went here last saturday with my family to eat lunch. When we got here we are in the waiting list #3, but a few minutes later we got our seat already. We ordered the asado bun, some dimsums and hk wanton noodle soup. The food was great. We especially liked their asado buns. It's delicious, the bun was so soft. And I was satisfied with their service, it was fast.
The flavors are just 150% spot on!
Went here for a fast merienda but never thought that these three small plates will satisfy two people the way it did ☺☺☺
Will be coming back soon for those lovely pork buns!
Only downside was because we were place on a table near the entrance door, flies were somewhat around us. But other than that, food is really heart and excellent.
i still wonder how come this place serve only a handful of offerings compared to the myriad of chinese restos in the... world?!
well, i guess they bank on their quality best sellers and that might not be a bad thing. hey, it’s michellin rated so what’s your issue bunny?! lelz
i have a confession. i usually just eat the pork buns, like on its own, until my friens told me to douse it w/ the chili sauce. i was like, no thanks im good, but he insisted so to appease him, i did so. i should’ve listened during my intake of the 2 buns because on my 3rd bun, i experienced bliss - like, bible! no friggin’ joke, it was devilishly delicious. hence, i ordered another set and that was the time i truly enjoyed these buns. PLEASE TRY because it really brings about this a flavor of spectacular!
I always eat here when im craving for quick and cheap chinese food. They have a variety of quick and easy dishes that always satisfy my cravings. I never get bored of eating here.
I love their lotus leaf wrapped glutinous rice and pork buns.

Served fresh! Ahhh. I really love it here. We have ordered four dishes and a drink:
Our usuals: Baked Pork Buns - My mom and I shared buns, actual sharing 2 1/2 buns each 😂 hot and steamy you have to bite a little, blow the heat out. We treat this as dessert since the marinade of the pork is sweet.
Poached Fresh Seasonal Vegetable - They pour out the sauce which is my favorite because the sauce is so good for all of their food especially dimsum. But it is also sweet so, I just use the one from the vegetable.
New Dishes (some for the Restaurant, some for our palette)
Dumpling with Spicy Sauce - not too spicy so I still put Chili but the sauce is different from just plain soy, I figure it has black vinegar? So I advise to order Kutchay instead since you can just put the sauce in.
Congee With Lean Pork Century Egg and Salted Egg - I put the sauce from the vegetable here and some chili. This one order serving is good for two as it is rice already. Very glutinous and yummy but century egg overpowers salted egg.
New drink: Hong Kong Style Milk Tea, worth it for Php 60-70 but not Php 88 since there is no sinker but it is really good and refreshing for the summer. Will order this again though if I were to eat despite the price.
Lucky to be served at around 12 noon as there are so many people waiting in line. Food was okay; tried their Chow Mien Stir Fried Noodles. Food menu has lots of shrimp stuff (caution!), sometimes they’re not written in the menu as “with shrimp”. Staff was accommodating, which is a nice part.
