Diner notes
4 out of 5
Came here for breakfast around 8 plus on a week day. At that time there were tables available with no queue. Old school Dim Sum place. They have lots of different kinds of dim sum to try. Wish my stomach was bigger. Food quality is pretty good. Don’t really like the mayonnaise with the fried items but the steamed items are what I really liked here. They have an efficient recording system so when you take the items it recorded efficiently. Dining area cleanliness is decent. Toilets are not very dirty but have a bit of smell. Not expensive and very decent quality. Worth a stop if you are in the area.

Gim Cheng Dim Sum is a very old place, therefore most people from JB will know this place as one of their dimsum options. Dimsum was decent. My best recommendation is the Salad Prawn with Apple, the combination of the prawn and the apple with the salad sauce was perfectly balanced. Others I find well on the standards of traditional dimsum. However, the biscuits options were not to my liking, particularly because it turned out soft without crunch, otherwise it would be different. The environment is rather hot, but understandable given the setting. Overall would recommend for a decent dimsum place in JB.

Sharing our old-school dim sum spot that locals truly love since 2006. Gim Cheng serves some of the freshest dim sum in JB, so the current 3.9 rating really doesn’t reflect how good the food is. The lo mai gai is a must try – fragrant, tender and nicely perfumed with Chinese wine, while the salted egg lava custard buns are rich, flowy and absolutely not to be missed. Everything comes out hot and tasty, and it is a great place for a satisfying breakfast with family or friends. Best to arrive slightly before 9am on weekends to beat the crowd and still enjoy the full range of dim sum.
