Kowloon House: Chicken Rice, Siomai Wonton, Sharksfin and Pandan Gulaman.

We're always on the lookout for some good Dimsum, and luckily, Gab lives near one of our favorite Dimsum places. Kowloon House has been a staple for us when it comes to Dimsum. The Siomai and Siopao are great, but they also have other items on the menu.

 Up for review, Chicken Rice, Siomai Wanton, Sharksfin & Pork Siomai and Pandan Gulaman.

THE VERDICT

He Says: One of my favorite places to eat. All I can say. Hehe. Moving on, the Chicken Rice is something I'm loving right now. It has that sweet and savory flavor to it, making it one of my new favorites. The Siomai Wonton is something perfect for the rainy days. There's not much noodles it in, but the flavor of the soup at the Siomai that goes come with is perfect! The Sharksfin (not made from real Shark's Fin) is the by far, the best I've had. With or without Soy Sauce, it's real good. 

Rating: Chicken Rice = 10/10; Siomai Wonton = 9.5/10; Sharksfin Siomai = 10/10

She Says: I've always loved kowloon house and it's good to know there's one near Gab's condo! The chicken rice was a little sweet but it was still good. I think the sauce is what makes us order it time and time again. The only reason I like this more is because of the wonton they use. Their sharksfin has been my go-to dumpling when i'm craving. haha. Plus, the Pandan gulaman was quite refreshing. 


Rating: Chicken Rice = 9/10; Siomai Wonton = 9/10; Sharksfin Siomai = 10/10; Pandan    Gulaman = 8/10

Chowking: Wanton, Chicharap and Pork Siomai


In the Philippines, they don't have a lot of the quick Chinese Takeout joints like the ones you see in the US. Often they're just copies or wannabes when it comes to Chinese Takeout. One place that does a good job is Chowking. This place well known for their cheap and somehow authentic Chinese Food.


Their Wanton.


Pork Siomai.


One of their Classics, Chicharap.


Stick my Chicharap Tongue out.


Love does the same. Haha.


SMILE! :D

THE VERDICT

He Says: When I get noodle cravings, Chowking usually solves it. Their Wanton is really really good. Plus it's cheap. The Pork Siomai is good too. Their Chicharap is my peronsal favorite. I can probably go through 3-4 orders easy. It's simply the best. And it's really really really cheap.

Rating: Chicharap = 10/10; Wanton = 9/10; Pork Siomai = 8/10

She Says: I'm a big fan of their congee and pork siomai. The congee wasn't available so I opted for my next favorite, their wanton! :) Their wanton is really yummy but sometimes it look like they didn't put much effort in the dish cause all the noodles are still stuck together. but the taste's still the same anyway. Their chicharap, not a big fan but it's yummy and definitely worth a try. It's different from your average prawn crackers. The siomai? try it yourself. super yummy!!
