The bestselling Sharksfin was still as amazing as I remember it. Wrapper was crunchy and sweet chili was the perfect sauce for this with garlic rice. I can still say it gives the best value for money on a budget. I also tried their Beijing Chicken Dumpling but I wasn't into the soft texture or taste. I'm better off ordering an extra Sharksfin ala carte, or any other other seafood option since I've already tried them back at Benilde, and they were all good!
