Thoughts after eating: Average

Value for money: 60/100
Will I come back in 6 months' time? No, there are better alternatives 

My opinion: 

The Chinese name of this coffee shop stall means "golden tastes". The owners sell traditional Singapore buns and dim sum. My mother and I have tried their pork bun and vegetable bun for breakfast. 

The pork bun was deceptively big. But when we cut in half and looked at the ingredients, we were stunned that there were a lot of empty space (not enough egg or meat ingredients). Pork meat was addictive and so juicy that meat juices kept oozing out of our mouths as we ate the food.

Vegetable bun was a real disappointment as it was the worst of its kind that we have eaten in recent years. It also suffered from the same lack of ingredient problem that the pork bun had. The miserly amount of veggie ingredients were so mild tasting that we almost did not notice their existence.

To sum up, the food was average tasting and severely lacking in ingredients. There are just too many dim sum alternatives in Ang Mo Kio for me to visit them ever again.

Ways for the owners to improve their food ratings:

Add more ingredients for the buns and dim sum.
