This Michelin-starred restaurant recently opened a branch here in the Philippines. It is located at Ground Floor Fashion Hall at SM Megamall.
I was wise enough to eat here at around 3 pm where the line still hasn’t morphed into a sleeping anaconda. I was able to get a table around 15 minutes of waiting.
Tim Ho Wan is famous for their pork bbq buns (P145 for 3 pieces). And of course, that is what I ordered.
The light buttery hot bread is stuffed with savory pork that is guranteed to feel like a party in your mouth. No wonder people patiently line up for this. The sweetness of the bread blends perfectly with the spices of the pork bbq.
I also ordered my ever favorite hakaw or Prawn Dumplings (P160). It was okay, a bit bland for my liking. I guess it’s just not one of their specialties.
The staff are numerous and attentive. I would want to try other items on their especially the dumplings. I would go back but I’ll make sure I don’t run into a long line. π
