Restaurant Hong Kong Dessert aka Tim Pan Gor Gor @ SS2
Tim Pan Kor Kor, a new addition to the already happening row of shop lot in SS2 besides KTZ (reviews here & here), Sanbanto & A Little Dim Sum Place. We were there with the sweet duo, Christine and Chris on a relatively quiet weekday night but the place was crowded. A good sign that the food must be good? Apparently not.
We tried their signature Mango Hor Fun on our previous visit to their Kepong outlet, so we settled for Mango Cheong Fun (RM 
instead. Enticing? The “fun” is actually some coconut flavored jelly that gave a nice and bouncy bite, a nice contrast to the juicy and meltingly soft flesh of those mango cubes.
a closer look
The Walnut & Peanut Sweet Soup 核桃露 + 花生糊 (RM3.50) was rich, creamy and aromatic but the Black Sesame Sweet Soup & Rice Balls 芝麻糊 + 汤丸 (RM 4) gave a weird bitter after taste.
My Sago with Watermelon 西瓜西米露 (RM5) was nowhere near KTZ’s version.
Our order of Mango Pancake (RM3.50 per piece) was a huge let down. The skin was too thick, and it was overladen with cream instead of mangoes.
Durian Pancake (RM4 per piece). Again, overwhelming amount of cream. I want my durian please.
While Tim Pan Gor Gor is good with their signature dessert such as Mango Hor Fun and Mango Cheong Fun, there remains considerable room for improvement for the other items. However, it was just my personal opinion and I do not defer anyone from visiting them ;p.

kinda disappointing affair huh?
makes me wonder, is this run by the same group of people running the Kepong outlet, or a franchise of sorts?
for the difference seems obvious.
