Fu Er Dai 富二代

Popular dimsum resto in Georgetown Penang, one of the best Dimsum spot known for its wide variety of cantonese dimsum. Portions are generous but a bit pricey. The ingredients are generally fresh. The ordering is interactive with self service. The cons are you have to queue and the place can get very crowded.

Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Fu Er Dai is a dimsum restaurant which opens early in the morning at 6.30 and closes at 14.00, Monday to Sunday. It provides a good breakfast option for early risers. The crowd during weekdays in the morning was good. We were the first person there and only a few tables were occupied while we were there. Get your table, order your drink/tea, and get your own dimsum at the counter. It has good varieties to choose from. There are also bapau, fried options, and you can order cooked food like kuetiaw etc from the menu. Recommendation: salted egg pau. Warning: it drips when you bite. There are plenty of parking outside and it can get crowded during busy hours. The dimsums were delicious, good tea (we chose Chrysanthemum tea) with free refill (add tea/hot water), the staffs were friendly, sitting area was comfortable and cool although it only has natural ventilation (it was early but there were many big fans). The dimsum cost around 6.90-9.40, depends on the type. Tea is counted per person at 2.90. Total bill has 6% tax added.

On my first day in Penang, I came straight to Fu Er Dai for a meal. The restaurant was full of customers, and every dish I tried was delicious. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. Before flying home, I even came back a second time to buy some food to take away — that’s how much I liked it! I especially loved their salted egg yolk custard — super tasty and addictive!

Tried this popular dim sum place after hearing many good reviews, but it didn’t quite live up to expectations. The dim sum variety was decent, but most dishes were average in taste — only the char siew pau was worth mentioning. It gets very busy on weekend mornings, so do come early, preferably before 9am, to get a table. There are separate counters for steamed and fried dim sum, and you can also order fried noodles or beehoon from the staff. Overall, an okay experience, but the food quality could definitely be improved.

Excellent experience at Fu Er Dai! Instructions were clear and staff were really friendly 😄 The food was so good! Recommend the chee chong fan, congee and har gow. Prawns very big, sweet and fresh and meat was fragrant and succulent. 👍👍👍

Everything we tried here was delicious! This is a great option for an early weekday breakfast. The wait on Sunday morning for two people wasn't bad either (15 min). The unlimited tea is also great.

Tasty dim sum casual open-air restaurant (with fans). There’s a 60 minute limit per table as this place gets busy. Food is good and service is friendly. Reasonable prices too.

If you are a westerner, you might need some adjustment at the beginning haha. I ordered the fried yin Yong on a misunderstanding with the waiter. It was good but I couldn’t get over the slimy texture. Then I figured out how to order some porc and vegetables dim sum and it was 💯💯🎉🥳🥂 !
