Yauatcha Deserts Display |
Yauatcha lies within Soho, London, offering dim sum as well as a beautiful array of desserts. For lunch or dinner, dim sum and food menus are usually served downstairs in stunning settings. Within the walls and a few cm away from each other are indents with electric candles that look real from afar. There is also a huge wine bar with a mini aquarium inside, where you can see live fish swimming underneath the bar where waiters are preparing wine. You can also view chefs cooking, making dumplings and preparing the food if you sit towards the side. The tables are a bit small, but overall, I really adored the interiors.

Pork & Prawn Siu Mai |
The waiters and waitresses were all very professional, and were able to time everything perfectly. With the menu, I ordered 3 dim sums which set me back about £30, but despite appearances, they are all very filling and we were full after eating just 2. You can find traditional dim sum dishes as well as proper food menus as well, but as it was lunchtime, dim sum was more than enough. I would recommend the pork and prawn siu mai, although it did taste a little bit sour which could be appealing for people with specific tastes. I also enjoyed the Shanghai dumplings, which were a tiny bit sweet inside, but I wouldn't recommend the Beef & Enoki mushroom Cheung Fung as the inside was not to my taste.

What I enjoyed the most was definitely the dessert. Yauatcha are famous for their desserts, so you can give the dim sum a miss and go straight for seconds. With carefully designed choices, you will be stuck for minutes trying to decide which one to go for, but the friendly staff are always happy to give suggestions. I had the Raspberry Delice, which included raspberry, dark chocolate and a lychee middle. Ice cream is also served with the dessert. I thought the dessert was absolutely amazing and would be more than open to try others from their menu.
