OK visited Yan Yan this afternoon....And I have posted my review here:
http://www.malsingmaps.com/forums/viewtopi...?p=82185#p82185And to summarise..go for it!! Price is infact cheaper than those in Seri Petaling & Puchoing!! sumore..air-con!

...Abit quiet propbably ppl tot it is a luxury seafood restaurant rather than Dim Sum...

The fried carrot cake & porridge is nice...Siew mai & others almost similar to those in Seri Petaling & the best in Puchong (Yuen Garden/ Taiji)...The serving portion is suprisingly big/huge! however the pau skin & the HK chee Cheoing fun is not as soft as those I tasted b4...(Abit thick & not so soft)
hehhe glad u enjoyed. read more below for my recomendations.

sharkteef bro, how to go to Yan Yan the nearest and easiest way from Seri Kembangan/Cyberjaya?
seri kembangan ka ..... hmmm...... sg besi highway , exit mid valley or kuchai lama, cut out to OKR. its after pearl point so both those exits are closer to the restaurant.
And to those that enjoy not only dim sum.... here are more tips for you
Since they open 24/7, and the cooks alternate between each other.
Lunchtime - Order the patin "Ching ching" (steamed with soy sauce). It's not only the soy sauce, but spices and herbs have been added to it. "tangkwei & kei chi" are part of the transformation for the soy sauce base apart from ginger slices. Only applicable to the patin fish. NOT applicable to the other fishes.
Dinnertime - Order the "cheong kuat" (pork rib) its 1 single pork rib, roughly 7 inches in length with plenty of meat and fats. (sorta like the char siew 3 layers "sam chang yuk")
Its marinated and then they "mun" for bout 10 minutes until the meat becomes really soft and stuffed with some mushroom tasting sauce. There's something authentic bout the taste i cant quite figure it out. RM 25 for that dish. When ordering, please be patient as it will take a longgggg time to cook it.
I also recommend the "Kailan". It is different from the 100000's of restaurants i;ve tried. This kailan contains NO OIL, NO GARLIC, NO Oyster Sauce. It's soaked in salt water temporarily for some flavor, then the leaves are fried, leaving the stem in its natural condition after boiled. So u get both a crunchy feeling, and a soft juicy stem. superb and healthy.
There are too many dishes to name, but i overall give this place my 2 thumbs up. price wise, alot cheaper than KL and most of PJ.
Suppertime - 10pm - 6am
Dim sum is available, and just like stimix has already tried. Bak kut teh is also available, and its comparable with the one in old town PJ. (only price wise cannot compare, old town cheaper)
"Lou Chee Yuk" RM 15 per person. Definitely MUST TRY ! ask for the less fatty ones. eat with their fried bread or with rice. "Sang Kuat" also must try. For this, u need to call the owner at least 2 hours before. It takes roughly 1 hour + to prepare this dish. RM 25 per person. There is no damn way u get "sang kuat" like that. Absolutely fantastic. I've went for the past 2 weeks eating "sang kuat"
Any other questions feel free to ask me. I've tried alot but not everything. Like i said, price wise, they are competitive. There are definitely cheaper places around with same or better quality, but this is within the travelling vincinity.
Dont compare with prices from sungkai or sg buloh or batu 9 bidor.
have a good time there. and when u want u can sing karaoke upstairs at Nite City. lolz. and DO NOT BUY cigarettes from Yan Yan. its RM10 per pack and only the niteclub carries it. Bring your own smokes.
The nme of the boss is Mr Fong. Always ask for "Fong Siang". His wife has a restaurant in paramount garden. also good food but alot pricier due to rental charges.
