I drove to New WK Restaurant in Penampang. The last time I went there was on 16 February 2010, almost 16 months ago.
Mum, Aunty Alice and I were told to go up to the First Floor and we sat at the table nearest to the door. Unlike the hustle and bustle on the Ground Floor, the atmosphere at the First Floor was quieter and more condusive for a relaxing brunch.
Aunty Alice always like the ‘Siew Mai’ at WK and that was the first thing I ordered for her. The chef maintained the standard.
But I cannot say the same thing for the ‘Har Kau’. Though the shrimps were inside, they were tasteless.
The standard for the Steamed Pork Ribs had gone down as well.
As for the ‘Har Cheong Fun’, there was only one shrimp on each roll and once again, they were tasteless.
We waited until we had finished everything we had ordered before we ordered the ‘Siew Loong Pau’. Just by judging the looks of them, I would not give the chef a pass. When we tasted them, all I can say is I would not order them anymore. Each piece of these costs RM2 and therefore one bamboo container of 4 is RM8.

The Steamed Beef Balls did not look appetizing enough but the taste was ok. It is not easy to make this and therefore we usually order this when we eat dim sum.
To do justice to the majority of lousy dim sum we had, we ordered one more ‘Siew Mai’. Aunty had 4 pieces altogether since she likes it so much.
I spent the rest of the day relaxing by sleeping, reading and occasionally online. Have not had such a lazy public holiday for a long time.
