HELLO FOODIE | BOTTOMLESS DIMSUM AT LEONG’S LEGEND

Hello Beautiful Souls!

Today, I want to tell you all about my experience at Leong’s Legend for their bottomless dim sum brunch. I went with my mum. It was the perfect start to our day before seeing a musical in the West End.

The dim sum servings were quite generous, so despite being bottomless, we didn’t eat as much as we thought we would. However, that just meant we could try more varieties of dumplings and buns without feeling guilty.

The sight of the iconic Gherkin right in front of us was simply breathtaking. It set the perfect tone for the marvellous culinary journey that awaited us.

We opted for the Sunday Roast 3-course menu, priced at £55, and it exceeded all expectations. The Angus Beef Tartare was a heavenly delight, bursting with flavour and perfectly complemented by the fresh ingredients. Of course, you can’t visit Duck & Waffle without trying their renowned roast, and it did not disappoint. Juicy, succulent, and cooked to perfection – it was a taste of comfort and indulgence in every bite.

Being a cheese lover, I was in absolute cheesy heaven with every forkful.

But the grand finale was the dessert course, where we relished the Biscoff Cheesecake and the Sticky Toffee Waffle. Both were delightful, but the Sticky Toffee Waffle was the clear winner, stealing the show alongside the unforgettable roast.
