Good news for all dim sum lovers: Yum Cha has rolled out $2.40++ dim sum specials to celebrate their 24th anniversary! You’ll find six signature items at a wallet-friendly price of $2.40++ each, available from now till 30 November 2024. We loved the Fried Yam and Scallop, where a crispy puff is filled with creamy yam paste, then crowned with a scallop. Another highlight was the adorable Lucky Tangerine Fried Prawn Balls, shaped to resemble a mini tangerine and loaded with juicy fried shrimp.
