Grand Cha Chaan Teng is one of Resorts World Genting’s newest gastronomic delights and it’s one that complements the already impressive lineup of exclusive restaurants at SkyAvenue Mall like The Laughing Fish by Harry Ramsden and Wolfgang’s Steakhouse Lounge.
Located at Level 1, SkyAvenue, next to the entrance of SkyCasino, Grand Cha Chaan Teng serves Nanyang and Cantonese cuisines, all fully prepared by chefs trained in the preparation of these tea house staples.
Crowd favourites include dim sum served from 7am to 2pm featuring crystal prawn dumplings with asparagus (har kaw), chicken and shrimp dumplings with mushrooms (siu mai), glutinous rice with chicken and mushrooms, steamed pork ribs with Chinese yam, barbecued char siu pau, and mini custard egg tarts.
Available on the menu as well are the quintessential Hong Kong snacks, bo lo buns (known as ‘pineapple buns’ for the pattern of the butter and sugar crust on top of the buns), with an assortment of accompaniments including butter, truffle, and scrambled eggs. There are also a variety of baguettes and toast for those wanting a smaller meal.
Diners can choose from an array of expertly roasted items, duck, chicken, pork belly and char siu — served with rice for heartier meals, or opt for a delectable selection of rice-based meals including nasi lemak, nasi sambal udang, kampung-style fried rice, and the cha chaan teng must-have of baked marinated pork chop rice with tomato concasse and cheese.
Also available is a range of local noodle favourites ranging from Penang char kuey teow, wantan noodles, curry laksa, fish head meehoon, and beef tendon noodles. For additional warmth in the cool mountain air, there is also a selection of soup and congee.
The latter also features in the supper menu served from 10.30pm to 5.30am. Teochew pork rib pepper soup, yong tau foo kway teow soup, and Singapore fried meehoon are also available for supper.
Like all tea houses of note, Grand Cha Chaan Teng serves a long list of hot and cold beverages, and premium teas. Alongside the traditional sock tea are assorted milk teas and special beverages such as the alcohol-infused golden Jiang Xiang latte, red beans blended with cream, and the unique sour plum with Coca-Cola.
The outlet also has a premium menu for VIP members which offer luxury takes of popular favourites such as a BBQ Roast meats selection, oven-baked egg tarts which melts in the mouth, abalone and mushroom tarts, crispy yam puffs filled with black pepper goose liver, congee with sliced abalone, scallops and dried scallops, double-boiled sea treasures soup, abalone and seafood selections, as well as live seafood in an assortment of styles.
Grand Cha Chaan Teng operates daily on a 24-hour basis, with some menu items available exclusively for breakfast or supper. There are takeaway counters for those wanting to eat on the go, while table service is available throughout both the VIP and regular dining areas.
