So we order the ha gow, rice rolls, some congee. Frankly all the dim sum were the same pre made supplier for buffet, thick skin. Frankly there was nothing special, I rather go to Mississauga for premade dim sum, at least there's selection? Careful in the parking lot with the broken beer bottles.

I did a lot of googling and was slightly skeptical of Sam's kitchen because of the reviews however I decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. When you first enter the establishment, it looks quaint and typical for a Chinese restaurant. There were maybe 12 tables and at noon on a Sunday, we did not have to wait. We were promptly seated and asked about what kind of tea we liked. They speak both Cantonese and mandarin - the ladies were the sweetest! Very attentive ( at least one of them was) and we got our food very quickly. Our order: Har gow - the skin was perfectly thin. When you pick it up, make sure you let it cool slightly or else you break the skin before you pick it up. The shrimp were amazing! They were juicy and had a very good bounce to it - a sign that it's perfectly fresh and cooked Siu mai - pork bases finished with fish row on top. Juicy. Soft. Meaty. Absolutely satisfying when you're craving for it. Shrimp spring rolls - it was served with a plum sauce? Didn't taste the sauce, but the shrimp was on point. My only complaint is that the spring roll wrapper was a bit too thick. Fried tentacles - fried, not pan fried like your typical dim sum places in toronto. It was tender and flavorful. Not too greasy. But rather the batter was light and squid was fried to a very nice golden brown. BBQ pork steamed buns - bread bun was sweet, fluffy and perfect. Not a lot of filling but it was good. Sweet bbq pork filling, not a lot of gravy. Slightly different from toronto dimsum places where the ratio of meat and bun is a little over half. But the bun was perfectly steamed. Chiu chow fun go - peanuts and meat wrapped up in a crystal shell. Typically served with chili oil, they gave me chili sauce when I asked for it. The skin was very thick... surprising because their skin on the har gow was perfect. Dough fritter rice roll - ok. I LOVED this. Dough fritters were freshly fried. It had an amazing crunch wrapped with the soft rice roll and covered in the sweet soy. They didn't give us the usual peanut sauce and hoisin, but I don't typically dip it anyway so not something I missed. Eat this when it comes to your table. If you leave it, the dough fritter, like all friend foods covered in sauce, will get soggy. Well done! Fried taro dumpling - I wasn't sure about this one when I ordered it. Everywhere I've gone it's never fresh / fried enough until the center is hot. However they do it pretty good. The center was hot. That's a plus. It was crisp and not greasy... another plus. But a lot more taro than meat filling and gravy inside. It is a little on the heavier side but I love taro. If you don't like taro, this would be like... a slightly more flavorful potato croquette with a pork filling. Lotus wrapped sticky rice * didn't eat.. we were too full Egg tart - umm. When it came, it looked good. The egg mixture was a nice deep yellow glossy color, a little different from regular egg tarts. The pastry is a flake pastry. I wouldn't necessarily order this again. The egg mixture is more gelatinous and deviates from the eggy light goodness that egg tarts are typically. But the pastry was good. We ate almost 10 dishes... had tea... and it came to about $50 with leftovers. Ok, we did order quite a bit but it's really so that we can figure out if we would be coming back or not. They do their shrimp right. Most of the food that came in were good. It's not Markham standards but pretty on par with Cameron's at a fraction of the price. Service was great! I would definitely go again as my go to dim sum place in kw to try everything else. They accept credit and cash - I had assumed it was cash only which is a plus. Parking is slightly limited.

Lots of students frequent is region and lots of competition around the area. Jia Jia Lok doesn't seem to be as popular as the other places nearby. This place is suitable for a quick lunch. Would be too casual for dinner, unless you happens to live nearby and is looking for a fast meal to get back to studying. The menu is fairly large, featuring your staple Chinese food with noodles and rice combos. I ordered the fried fish with cream sauce on rice and it was alright. Nothing too special, good enough to fill you up for lunch, but definitely not enough flavor. The price on average was $10 per dish, acceptable for the student population around the region.

The food was made very quickly as soon as we ordered. The food was not baked, as would normally be expected from an HK-style western food eatery. The portion sizes are generous with lots of meat, though it is pricey for a single meal. I wasn't a big fan of the tomato sauce on the pork chop.
