Golden Fortune Seafood - Riyadh

The last time I was here was more than ten years ago, but what a pleasant surprise to come back for their breakfast dimsum and to find that things haven't changed! Still the same delicious siomai (sharksfin and pork , beef balls (one of my faves! , raddish cake, kuchai dumplings, noodles and bola bola lugaw! Wow! My only lament was that they discontinued their chungfan (asado or shrimp rice noodles in soy sauce which can rival Tim Ho Wan's. My favorite was the one in peanut sauce. And guess what! They've got a breakfast promo where almost all items are half-priced from 7 am to 11am! I hold a great deal of sentimentality for this resto because it was a family favorite for years. Loved it then, still love it now. ^ ^

Sobrang sulit ng dimsum dito lalo pag promo (there are certains times of the day like merienda wherein the dimsums are 30% off i think). You can never go wrong with hakaw, beancurd roll, and siomai! Its as authentic as it gets. But I would love to try the hot pot next time! If I weren't on a food trip in Binondo which requires me trying diff restos, I'll eat here and I'd be full! The dimsum quality and taste just as good as any authentic chinese resto in Binondo but what sets Golden Fortune apart is its cleanliness, ambience, convenience, good airconditioning and spacious dining area, variety of food and the price point. What they need to improve on is the service time lang (arrival of food and bill, getting attention of servers for water, sawsawan or calamansi), thats it!

For a quick dinner with my family, we visited our old-time favorite restaurant this time not for shabu shabu but for dim sum and Chinese comfort food. Golden Fortune 's congee, Japanese siomai, sharks fin dumpling, radish cake, and noodles are really one of the best we 've ever tried. The noisy ambiance can be a downside but it 's a usual environment that needs getting used to if you 're not yet familiar. But the incredible food tastes help ensure that everyone leaves happy. Their dim sum is authentic and delicious, drawing throngs to the huge dining room. There are no clever twists but plain classic goodness. Prices are also great for a real-deal dim sum. Despite a nondescript interior design and no-frills service, Golden Fortune is still one of our top restaurants in mind whenever we want Chinese food in Chinatown whether it 's to celebrate a special occasion or just a family bonding over good food. Go early or really late to avoid a long wait.

A former friend invited us for diner. He told us we 're dining at Golden Fortune. And it got us very excited knowing the delicious food we 're about to eat. I was able to dine here with my family before. But I was already half full that time I joined them. So now 's my chance to savour the moment. I was thinking of the patatim, buttered chicken, steamed live lapu2x and lobster. But when we arrived, I was surprised that we got other company. I thought it 's just the 4 of us. But we 're 10 now, including others. I thought how can this hot air invited a table of 10, knowing his reputation of being also a national cheapskate. (Nabigla lang sya, kasi umangat nang konti ang buhay nila, kaya naging sobrang mayabang. That 's also the reason ubos lahat kaibigan nya. But we were wrong that time. Because he ordered hot pot shabu-shabu. And it really is a lot cheaper compared to ala carte dinner. He only ordered 2 sets. But added 2-3 other stuffs in the boiling soup base afterwards. It tasted very good, the thinly sliced beef, several variety of dimsum alike. The pot was empty clean later. We were all very full after our dinner. We stayed at the 2nd floor, and the place was full that time. All the tables were fully occupied. Some other tables were like fiesta. Their voice will be heard downstairs and vice versa. Golden Fortune is highly recommended. Delicious healthy dinner. We will return some other time, minus the hot air.

Good food with free almond dessert. Also have dimsum promo every lean hour, price is reasonable good service and ambiance is typical..........
