Epic Dim Sum Feast at Victory Seafood Restaurant

Restaurant Victory Seafood

Disclosure:  I was invited by Chinesebites.com to attend a complimentary media tasting at Victory Seafood Restaurant.  Opinions are my own.

Most of the time when I visit Crystall Mall, I head straight to the food court for some quick eats.  Victory Seafood Restaurant is one sit-down restaurant that I have passed by frequently (on my way to the food court) but have never tried.  Recently, I had the opportunity to taste a wide selection of dim sum dishes offered by Victory Seafood Restaurant at a media event.

Grandiose Dining Area

When I entered Victory Seafood Restaurant, I couldn’t help but be impressed by the grandioseness of their space.  Floata in Chinatown still has got much square footage on them, but for a restaurant inside a mall, it is sizeable.

Dim Sum Menu

Victory Seafood Restaurant’s pricing is more line with a more upscale dim sum restaurant.  Dim sum prices are as follows: small ($4.49), medium ($4.99), large ($5.79), special ($6.50), chef’s special ($7.49).

I tried several items but definitely not all as I had gotten very full.  In general, I thought that the dim sum I tried was good.  I quite enjoyed the Golden BBQ pork pastries which had a nice flaky pastry shell and juicy BBQ pork filling.  Victory’s shrimp dumplings were on point with plump and meaty shrimp fillings with a slightly crispy texture.  The wrapper was thin, translucent yet firm.  The steamed rice rolls that I tried (supreme fresh shrimps, mushroom & vegetable, and crispy deep fried fish paste) had a nice smooth, silky texture with a savoury filling.  The steamed BBQ pork buns were soft and fluffy on the outside with a moist and sweet filling.  I enjoyed having the pan fried lotus root cakes plain rather than dipping into a sauce; they were crispy in texture.  The pan fried Chinese pancakes with cured meat & leek were just okay and not too greasy.

Rolls

I thought that the steamed Shanghai style juicy pork dumplings could improve with a juicier filling.  The smoked salmon with fruit salad sauce tarts was my least enjoyed dish – the sweet flavours of the fruit salad with mayo did not go well with the smokiness of the salmon.

Overall Impression of Victory Seafood Restaurant

All in all, I thought that Victory Seafood’s dim sum dishes were good though perhaps priced on the higher end.  Of the dishes I tried, there were certainly more dishes that I enjoyed than disliked.  Rating: 3.5/5
