The entrance to the Restaurant was so inviting and I was seemingly tranced to the old upscale China |
Unlike in Shang Palace where they only have the order-all-you-can Dimsum, here at Lili's they offer a mini spread of Chinese Roastings, soup and congee while you wait for your ordered dimsum.
Suckling Pig was the superstar for my two hungry boys |
This Bamboo Pith and Mushroom soup was sooo superb.. |
One by one... the dimsum came in full swing..I almost lost count of what I've ordered. By the way, you order the dimsum on a by piece manner not on a per bamboo steam basket except for the Chicken feet. This is better for us though since we have the tendency to over order not thinking (mainly because of the happy monsters in our tummy) that usually there are three of four dimsum in one basket.
Hakaw .. succulent and firm ..yey! |
My personal favorite has to be this Scallop dumpling.. melts in your mouth scallops with all the happy flavor of a dimsum..aaahh happiness! |
This Xiao long Bao sadly is a no winner for hubby.. too thick wrapper.. |
Crab Claws with Almonds :) |
Chicken Spinach dumpling |
Vegetarian Spring Roll.. did not disappoint.. hehe |
Salmon and Beef Sate ... lahhh :( |
Custard Bun |
ahhh.. this is my son's favorite and the name totally escaped my mind.. my bad! Glutinous rice wrapper with mushroom and Shrimp..something like that :p |
Siomai ... |
Taro puff with seafoods is like a happy bomb for me ..bursting with flavor yumminess! |
Hot Prawn Salad... acceptable but not as yummy as heart throbbing as Shang's |
Battered Scallops |
Fish fillet with Crab Roe |
AND this one sealed the happiness for me... they have a dessert station for the Dimsum Buffet... Whoaaaa!!!!
Moist Brownies |
Chocolate Cigar Cake for Dads.. |
Eclairs and Strawberry Mousse Cake on top |
Mango Panna Cotta |
Bow tie Chocolate Cake |
Sesame Balls a.k.a. Buchi :) |
Coconut Red bean soup with Tapioca Pearls is always a winner for me as I have always love Palarusdos here in Bulacan |
Gelatin and Marshmallows |

Mango Sweet Soup |
the aftermath .. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! |
