Phillips Dim Sum

We have been stopping off at Preston Markets for years and regularly eat Mediterranean, Chinese BBQ and Vietnamese Rolls at the fantastic local ethnic outlets. Today we dropped in after a 3 month absence and were excited to come across a new establishment on the corner of High and Cramer. Phillips Dim Sum takes over the small corner shop only minutes from the world famous markets and inside Phillip is hand making some of the best dumplings this side of Shanghai. We love dumplings, so in we ventured to be greeted by Phillip who quickly turned on the powerful air conditioning to make us comfortable. We ordered pork and chive dumplings and prawn dumplings and after the first bite we new we had stumbled onto a new sensation out Preston way. They were fresh and delicious so purchased two frozen trays of prawn and prawn/​scollop dumplings to take home and try for dinner. We got the wok and steamer out, followed the instructions and enjoyed a superb dumplings at home. We also tried the Custard Egg Tart and they too were delicious. I suggest you sample the dumplings in store and then grab a few trays of you’re choice for an authentic dumplings meal at home. Prices are great with in store dumplings around $ 3.50 for 3 and take-​away trays of 10 for $ 10. Custard Egg Tarts are $ 1.50, and I’m just about to have one!
