Max Gourmet Restaurant is a famous spot for dim sum in the Bayan Lepas area. The restaurant at Bayan Bay is an expansion to their existing outlet at Bangunan Lip Sin which is enjoying equally as brisk a business. They have also just opened at new outlet at Gurney Plaza recently.

This was my favourite and a specialty at this restaurant. The garoupa was fresh and the thick soup base was full of ginger.

The porridge was laden with ingredients. A recommended dish at this restaurant.
