Every time I get hungry late at night, it's either instant noodles or fast food, and I'm so over it! Recently, a friend recommended this Winglok in Bintaro, saying it's the Halal version under the Wing Heng group and it's open 24 hours. I was like, Anjay! I immediately called up my friends to go Nongkrong and see if it's really that Mantap. 😎
Dim Sum Arrives: A Delight or a Fright?
As soon as we sat down and ordered by scanning the QR code, the dishes came out super fast. I have to rave about their Signature Shrimp Dumplings (Hakau)[1]! The skin is so thin it's translucent, and inside isn't some half-hearted shrimp paste, but a real, whole large shrimp! It's so incredibly bouncy, and one bite is super satisfying. And then there's the Salted Egg Custard Bun (Bakpau Telur Asin)[2], girls, you have to order this! Break it open gently, and the golden lava-like filling just bursts out. The aroma of salted egg yolk mixed with a milky fragrance is creamy without being overly sweet. I could devour three in a row!
I thought the roasted meats at a Halal dim sum place would be just average, but the Roasted Duck[3] surprised me too. The duck skin was roasted to a glistening shine with a satisfying crunch, and the meat was still very juicy, not dry at all. As for the ambiance, it has two floors. We went straight to the air-conditioned non-smoking area on the second floor. They were playing old Chinese songs, and it really had a bit of a Hong Kong street vibe[4].
Let's Be Real, The Downsides
But to be fair, it wasn't without its pitfalls. Some of their fried dim sum were a bit too greasy[5]; you'd get tired of them after a few. Also, the skin of the rice noodle rolls was on the thick side, so the texture was a bit lacking. You can pass on this one. Even though the second floor has AC, the air circulation felt just okay. You'll still leave with a bit of a greasy food smell on you.
An Honest-to-Goodness Guide, A Must-Read Before You Go!
Finally, let me highlight the key points for the girls who want to check it out! ✍️
- Payment Methods: Cashless only! Remember to bring your card or have QRIS on your phone, otherwise you'll just have to watch others eat[6].
- Parking Nightmare: Very few parking spots! If you come during peak hours, be prepared not to find a spot. Friends who drive, think twice[7].
- Seating Guide: If you can't stand the heat or smoke, head straight to the non-smoking area on the second floor. But a heads-up for those with elderly folks or kids, you'll have to climb stairs[8].
- Hidden Menu: For my spice-loving girls, you must ask the staff for their special Winglok Chili Sauce[9]. It's got way more kick than regular chili oil
- Signature Hakau: Thin skin, packed with a whole, juicy shrimp. So satisfying—the real deal! [1]
- Bakpau Telur Asin: Break open for a golden lava flow! Creamy salted egg yolk & milk. The perfect sweet & savory fix. [2]
- Get authentic roast duck 24/7 at this Halal spot. Classic Hong Kong-style vibe with an old-school C-pop playlist. [3]
