Halal dim sum at Bonda Kitchen (Malaysian Food)

Bonda Kitchen in Paddington specializes in Malaysian food hence its Halal dim sum offerings.
What makes their dim sum good is that it does not contain lard which causes bloating and indigestion in my case.

The dim sum offerings were a little different and unique like the duck shao mai which we ordered.

Also ordered roast duck with rice and some blue coloured Smurf crab and prawn dumplings.

The crab and prawn dumplings were pretty much how I expected them to be, the duck shao mai was a bit different to how I expected it to be.

Shao Mai filling is usually minced meat mixed with some flour but the duck shao mai was literally chunk of pulled duck meat which made it quite meaty and a little dry.

Last but not least was the roast duck which turned out to be sliced pieces of aromatic duck served with rice and not roast duck.

Anyway, the duck was quite dry that I felt that it was either left over duck that was refried or duck fried twice as the meat was literally quite crispy and dark brown.

In a way it reminded me of Indonesian smashed duck.

To summarize, I felt that the dim sums fared better.
