Hua Nam Restaurant 华南菜馆 A Nostalgic Place To Dine....

Initially wanted to go for prata late dinner but the dim sum looks good and looks very inviting so we decided to try this stall instead.

From the outside it looks very old school.

Even the Dim Sum were those few simple old school type.

Something not very common in Singapore anymore, a "Ma Ti Gao" Waterchestnut Cake.

Assorted Puff Pastries and "Lo mai kai"

A retro selection of menu.

Really simple decor, i think it hadn't changed for ages...

One of the most awesome beef horfun i had. The horfun was cook till fragrant with ample amount of wokhei every bite. Sauce was not very salty with nice consistency and flavour. Beef was very tender. Whats best? The plate it was served in is also very retro!

"Hei Zhou" Every place i go i love to try this dish because i think my grandma and mum make the best in Singapore. This was definitely decent but the flavour of the spices a little too strong, masking the natural flavour of the meat inside.






The Dim Sum was all pretty simple. Mainly consist of pork, chicken and prawns. Different ratio, different seasoning. But still after a few u can find similarity in some of them.

Food Rating: 6/10. This place is not the middle to high end restaurant u are looking for. The food quality seriously is just average. However i'll still be back for supper.

Service: The boss and lady was warm and friendly. I ask the boss how come the "Siu mai" sold out so quickly, he went to make some and steam... It was 11pm already! They just go all out for the customers! Love them :)

Value: Each dimsum is priced at $2 while a simple horfun is price at $4. Very decent price i must say. Eating alone or in big group should spend aroun $10-20 to truly enjoy the food and ambiance here... (However i feel the indoor seating might be a little too warm for most people so grab the outdoor seating if you can manage to secure any...)
