Like all Dim Sum restaurants, Yong Pin serves up a good variety of handmade Dim Sum, both steamed and fried like Siu Mai, Har Gow, and more. Simply make your way to the Dim Sum counters and pick from the array of Dim Sum trays available.

Next, head on over to the Bao counters and make your pick. Our personal recommendation is the Chinese Layer Cake which is made using Kaya, Salted Egg and comes with a citrusy hint. Not to mention, the perfectly stacked layers are good for your feed too!
