We had a variety of dumplings and other dishes. As per usual when at an Asian restaurant the first thing ordered to hit the table was the green tea in a pot. Green tea is drunk during these meals as it aids digestion (try it next time you go to a restaurant that serves it).
My dad and I shared a plate of fried squid tentacles as well as a dish of steamed pork ribs (mum doesn't like either of these as she hates squid and doesn't like her chances of getting a rogue piece of bone). The squid tentacles are deep fried with a seasoning of salt and chilli.

We also had my favourite dish of pork and prawn dumplings. They are a mixture of pork mine and prawns held together by bean curd and then steamed with fish roe on top. These are also my mums favourite.

We also had prawn and scollop dumplings, steamed pork and prawn bean curd skin rolls, rice noodle rolls with bbq pork, rice noodle rolls with prawn and custard tarts. I enjoyed the pork and bean curd skin rolls, however I much prefer the very similar Lo Bak that is not steamed. The rice noodle rolls with the bbq pork is nice, however I tend to not eat these often because they are hard to pick up with chopsticks. I didn't try the rice noodle rolls with prawns as I find the texture of the rice noodle to be a little slimey and unpleasant. The custard tarts are always delicious, the pastry is not overly sweet and is wonderfully flakey, the egg custard in the middle is sweet with a lot of yolk and only just set.
From l-r: prawn and scollop dumplings, steamed pork ribs, steamed pork and prawn bean curd rolls and cup of green tea.

Dim sum menu
The Emporers Kitchen is open daily for Dim Sum from 10am - 3pm and then again from 5pm - 10pm, but is shut on Tuesdays. It can get full quite quickly so it is recommended to go there early, especially on weekends.
