![]() The Deep Fried Taro with Char Siew (S$4 for two pieces) was an item on the menu that interested me, as I had never seen a taro and char siew combination before. All in all, they were pretty solid salted egg lava buns. Fantastic Dim Sum’s Black Gold Lava Custard Bun (S$5.60 for three pieces) came with golden salted egg filling within a black bun.ĭo you have good food to recommend?

Of course, the hallmark of any good dim sum place would be the presence of salted egg lava custard buns. Each pork rib was tender and well-cooked, with a nice marinated flavour. The Black Bean Pork Ribs (S$3.80) were a little on the average side, in my opinion. The chives also provided an extra mild tangy taste. I liked how the pork fillings consisted of actual meat as opposed as fat, and the dumplings were flavourful without being too salty. The amount of pork meat within the dumpling was generous. Next, I tried the Chives Crystal Dumpling (S$4 for three pieces), which came filled with pork meat and chives. If regular siew mai doesn’t excite you, Fantastic Dim Sum’s unique flavours are certainly something worth trying, with each piece providing a different taste. My favourite of the Fantastic Siew Mai was definitely the Truffle Siew Mai, as it had a strong truffle aroma and had little specks of truffle inside the siew mai itself. As for the Preserved Vegetable Siew Mai, it was saltier than the others, with bits of salted vegetables within. However, I couldn’t taste much of the abalone elements in the fillings of the siew mai itself. The Abalone Siew Mai was topped with a small abalone, which was chewy and flavourful. The Otah Siew Mai, on the other hand, had a spicier kick to it from the otah, while the Yellow Curry Siew Mai was similarly slightly spicy with the addition of the fragrance of coconut milk. It wasn’t too salty and was filled with an adequate amount of meat. The original Chicken Siew Mai tasted like any classic siew mai. I first started off with Fantastic Dim Sum’s signature Fantastic Siew Mai (S$10.80), which came with six pieces of siew mai in different colours and flavours: Chicken, Otah, Preserved Vegetables, Abalone, Yellow Curry and Truffle. ![]() With fried and steamed dishes, as well as desserts to choose from, I was spoilt for choice. I visited Fantastic Dim Sum’s outlet at the ARC 380 food court in Jalan Besar, which had over 30 dishes available on its menu. Fantastic Dim Sum first piqued my interest when I found out about their multi-coloured siew mai in exciting flavours, including truffle and curry. ![]()
