    Known for innovative presentations and authentic dim sum, Lhong Tou Dim Sum in Pulau Tikus serves favorites like the Golden Salted Egg Yolk Puffs. Originally a humble stall in a kopitiam, it has gained a loyal following.

    A stone's throw distance away from the Pulau Tikus morning market, the newly opened Dim Sum joint Lhong Tou Dim Sum 龍頭點心 is suitable for those who seek for quality Dim Sum dishes yet willing to pay a little more for the premium quality.

    Since we were staying nearby on this trip, Jen suggested we try the dim sum at Lhong Tou Dim Sum. And truth be told, we were glad we made the stop. We ordered the basic that we like.

    One of the best Dimsum in Penang. Must try their Siew May, Chicken Feet, Lor Ma Gai, Carrot Cake, Shrimp Roll. Taste yummy and all ingredients fresh. Friendly service, price higher than other Dimsum Restaurants
