Had high expectations, given that this used to be a well patronised seafood restaurant in the larger Desaru area. Not quite impressed.

Recently, I crossed the causeway for a hearty and affordable Dim Sum meal with my family!

Nestled in @RenaissanceHotelJohorBahru , Wan Li Chinese Restaurant serves up a great selection of Muslim-friendly Cantonese cuisine in a very hearty and warm ambience with friendly and attentive service.

We tried their All-You-Can-Eat Dim Sum Buffet, which is available from 1130am - 3pm daily. At RM 88 nett per pax, it includes the following selections:
Steamed Dim Sum
Fried & Baked Dim Sum
Porridge
Rice & Noodles
Vegetable
Tie Guan Yin

Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with the wide varieties of dim sum items because each and every one of the item on their dim sum list comes with a picture of it.

If you’re not a fan of buffet, ala carte options are available as well! Don’t miss out on this Cantonese restaurant the next time you’re in JB for a short holiday or doing your CNY shopping!

This place never disappoints simply for its quality.

Get the baked oysters with cheese shown in the picture, ee fu noodles, pekin duck and of course, always end the meal with orh nee (yam paste dessert).

Fish head curry served in a claypot loaded with fleshy fish meat, cabbage, lady finger, long bean, fried tofu skin and tau kee. Their portion comes in 3 sizes with a small portion serving only fish steak while medium and large comes with a choice of fish head or tail. Each serving is freshly prepared upon ordering where they will place the fresh fish steak/head/tail into the claypot, add in the vegs and curry to cook it over the fire before serving it bubbly-hot to our table.

If you are expecting curry with a very thick consistency then you may not appreciate this place. The curry gravy here is not heavily saturated with coconut milk which is less jelly and drinkable. The fish meat absorbs the savoury curry gravy well and goes perfectly with rice. A small portion is just nice for 2-3 pax 》RM40 / Small (Fish Steak)

It's time to consider having curry fish head for breakfast because the waiting time nearer to lunch hour is approximately 1 hour and they are not open for dinner.

So boozy! So herbal! So chickenlicious! Steamy tender chicken bathed in aromatic heavy Chinese cooking wine with various medicinal herbs wrapped within a large sheet of aluminium foil. The red dates and wolfberry in it added sweetness and ginger give off a slight spiciness. The overall broth was yummy.

Eat already will rich. Rich in your tummy lah, and also rich for the restaurant but will be poor for your wallet. No regrets tho, the fried rice was fragrant and tasty. Nice charred bits and wok hei. Like got some salted fish taste in it too. Savourlicious. Eggs and rice fluffy, overall not too greasy.

Deep-fried to perfection cause the shell can chew together and shallow down. Damn crunchy! The taste quite unique. Not spicy, quite savoury like dried shrimp taste and oceanic sweet too.

Just WoW! Juicy & plumpy oyster on top of a layer of hotplate omelette. Eggy and delicious. The oyster given were generous and yummy. Drenched in soy braised sauce for uplifting of taste.

Squid, fish, prawn and various vegetables cooked in mild spicy, thick and creamy homemade sauce. Standard tenderness as should be expected.

Lai! Lai! Lai! Gather your kaki and head across the crossway to Senibong Bay Seafood to enjoy yourselves in a scrumptious zi char meal.

Tried their special menu (about RM150 for 5 courses + dessert) and it was interesting. Everything is served in individual portions instead of sharing plates, and portion sizes quite generous as well - we were stuffed!

Most original courses would be:
- cold platter (the thing on the right is a prawn & cheese ball with crispy coating, totally unexpected but delicious)
- prawns wrapped in lotus leaves and baked in salt (not bad but I don’t understand the need for sauce)

I also really liked the dessert which was a mango puree with mango bits & sago; more like a drink and hence easier to finish!

love that you get to walk around and choose dimsum from a few “stations” around the area, while bringing the hard copy paper receipt - they will tick what you’ve ordered on the paper bill
