Fung Shing dumplings @ 鳳城小食

Ordered the Fung shing dumplings with macaroni but they gave me Instant noodles by accident.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Instant noodles:
Luckily the broth and noodles were separated in different bowls but you have to pay extra for the bowl.
The noodles were hard to start off with and after the broth was put in, it went soft really quickly and it was tasteless.

Fung Shing dumplings:
The dumplings were massive, they were about the size of half a boiled egg.
It had the usual bamboo shoots, black fungas and prawns inside.
The dumpling skin had a slight akaline taste to it.
There were three dumplings in total.

Dumplings in chili oil @ Stand Up Eating

I have not been here for ages so decided to give it a revisit.

Some of the dumplings are no longer served so I tried the dumplings in chili oil and the other dumplings in soup.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Dumplings in chili oil: The chili oil was not that spicy which was good and the dumplings were topped with grated garlic.
The dumplings were delicious and there were lots of watercress in it.
The dumplings tasted really nice with the garlic and chili oil.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Noodles with dried prawn roe and mentaiko: The noodles were slightly hard but after putting some soup in, it was softer.
The saltiness of the dried prawn roe gave it flavour and depth and the mentaiko gave it some bursts of saltiness.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Dumplings in soup: The pork dumplings were delicious and the dumpling skin was not too thick, however the broth was too salty.

Honey Filled dumplings @ Fifty Fifty

I rarely go for Chinese sweet dumplings unless there is something interesting inside the dumplings.
Here they are filled with honey!~

I thought the Honey filled dumplings came in ginger soup according to the reviews, but they only had the honey soup.
While I was waiting, the decor was nice and colourful so I took pictures of that.
On the front of the menu they had a few lines about fifty fifty, but sadly the world is not in equilibrium anymore.

The world is a matter of
half and half, fifty-fifty
half day, half night
half men, half women
half good, half bad
half yours, half mine
half sweet, half bitter
More sweets, less bitterness
and therefore a more beautiful life

Raw honey dumplings:
The dumplings were interesting, the size of the dumplings were smaller than the usual ones.
In other places they are bigger so you get around 5-6 per portion but here they are smaller so you get more.
I thought the honey filling would be liquid but it was crystallised honey.
The sweetness was not too sweet.
After finishing the dumplings the soup does not taste so sweet which is good.
