What an amazing dim sum venue! Loved all the dishes we had.. and we had a lot!

The congee was earthy and comfortable and familiar, the wagyu beef puff just melted in the mouth, the cheong fun was loaded with char siu and the crispy soft shell crab with the fried flaked almonds was incredibly moreish.

The restaurant was clean and modern. The waitstaff were amazingly attentive. And between the four of us, we were surprised at how inexpensive it was (we had expected to pay a lot more, given its more upmarket appearance).

I had been before to their parent restaurant Hakkasan and had a poor experience (not due to the food, but due to the service; we felt incredibly rush and felt we were constantly being watched and hovered over to try and turn our table around as quick as possible. Not what you would expect from a Michelin Starred restaurant at all..) but I was very impressed at how different Yauatcha was.

Would definitely recommend Yauatcha over Hakkasan for an overall experience.
