Dimdimsum (點點心) Taipei, Taiwan

Franchised by Taiwanese Boy Band (棒棒堂), Lollipop, Awayne Liu (阿緯) invested the Hong Kong Dim Sum Brand - Dimdimsum (點點心). Opened in November 2015, the restaurant was very popular and long queues were expected. 

The brand name has won many accolades since it was set up in 2010:

I took notice of this dim sum place when I watched a Taiwanese popular variety show - 康熙來了. I have been wanting to try this restaurant since then. I finally had the opportunity to have afternoon tea recently. 

The siew mai (燒賣) tasted very ordinary. (Food rating: 2.5/5)

The salted york custard steamed bun (劉薩包) was cute. It was demonstrated that the custard would excrete from the nostrils after poking the nostrils with chopsticks. However, it did not work just like on television. The salted yolk custard was runny and the steamed bun was sweet. But it did not have my rave reviews. (Food rating: 2.5/5)
