Chef Loong – Siu Loong Pau (Xiao Long Bao) & Dim Sum – SS2
June 5, 2008 – 6:27 pm - 5,787 viewsChef Loong is another of those snack/dim sum/siu loong pau joints and it’s pretty well known around SS2. Apparently Chef Loong himself actually left to start Shanghai 10 in Bangsar! I wonder where he’s gone now as Shanghai 10 sadly seems to have closed down 
You should probably know by now Xiao Long Bao is one of my favourite things to eat, and this is another place to eat them! One of the better ones too. It’s quite a popular place and it’s reasonably priced and fairly convenient being placed in SS2.
There menu is decent with a good range of crunchy stuff, fried stuff and a few refreshing dishes and of course some desserts to finish off your gluttony. It’s pretty easy to find, opposite the open air mamak area (some call it umbrellas, we refer to it as Misai – our favourite gerai there).
The interior is pretty standard, aluminum tables and chairs etc..that’s not the reason I go though, of course I go for the Xiao Long Bao (RM6 for 4).
They have a new variety now too with wine, alcoholic Xiao Long Bao! Honestly speaking though it doesn’t taste much different from the original one – it’s 50 cents more at RM6.50 for 4.
Another fav is the Crispy Netting Prawn (RM4.20) – this is delicious!
The Avacado Katafi is similar, but I can’t say I’m so fond of it. But then it is more of a desert.
The cucumber dish is delightfully refreshing amongst the fried stuff.
The Char Siew Pau are not bad.
The Crispy Chee Cheong Fun is definitely worth a try!
The desserts are all worth trying, depending on what tickles your taste buds. It is a dessert house after all. Even though the food is labeled as snacks…don’t be deceived, the portions are good and it’s quite filling. It’s perfectly ok to go there for dinner. We give it a solid We Ate This 7/10!

Shanghai 10 is still around, at KLCC Avenue K.

Correct me if I am wrong. I used to be regular when ‘Chef Loong’ was still working at this place. But since he left, i found the food quality dropped and my all-time favourite steamed layered custard card is no longer in the menu
So i have not been back since.

used to love going to this joint but food quality is nowhere compared to a couple years ago and the last 2 times i was there, the service was regrettable.

hf : by all means you should, its still above your average makan in ss2 food taste.

Funny. When Dragon-i first started it advertised Chef Loong also as the main chef.
