"Tasty Food"
7.7 Cuisine 8 | Service 8 | Atmosphere 7

The food was very good and tasty. A different eating experience. The service was satisfactory although we felt that the staff could be better trained. Overall a good dining out experience.

We are were enthusiastically greeted and seated, and welcomed by the Manager. Staff were polite and helpful (slight language barriers - ordered food before we got a drinks menu).
So Yum is based inside a shopping centre, which I suppose limits the amount that they could do to the Overall ambience, however it is pretty good as far as Shopping Centres go.
The food: We had the Money Bags and Halloumi Spring rolls - Delicious! For mains we both the had the sizzling beef - here I was expecting the usual fare of sliced beef in a standard sauce. Nope! Instead we received the most tender cubes of beef, in the most flavourful sauce! Definitely not your average Sizzling Beef!
The also stock a great range of teas! Will definitely be back to try their Summer Specials of dimsum!

About So Yum

Cuisine: Asian, Chinese

“Yum Cha”, an age old Chinese cuisine style, celebrates the unique culinary art of Dim Sum. It is this inimitable gastronomic offering which So Yum presents as a haven for friends, family and colleagues to gather in appreciation of healthy, fresh, wholesome and ultimately – premium quality food and drink.

The soul of our restaurant rests in Dim Sum, which aptly translates to 'touch the heart'. Our heavenly, bite sized morsels are filled with a variety of high quality meat, seafood and vegetable fillings. Each parcel is individually prepared with great skill and care, before being steamed, baked or pan-fried – according to your personal preference.

Our extensive Dim Sum menu is complemented by exquisite flowering and fragrant teas, which will not only aid digestion, but also stimulate your already burgeoning appetite. The pleasure of the Dim Sum dining experience has evolved over many years. Today, many enjoy and accept this art as a staple dining culture; where many or merely a few dishes can be ordered and savoured at any sitting.

Our assiduously selected menu also offers sensational Asian style salads, aromatic curries, wok stir-fries, as well as a delectable assortment of noodle dishes. All original recipes are lovingly executed to maintain the authenticity of the four main Asian flavours, namely: sweet, sour, spicy and salty.

Adding to this, our beverage selection is the toast of the town with, amongst others, freshly squeezed vegetable and fruit juices to live for. Languish in our beautiful flowering and aromatic teas, which are allowed to draw naturally in exclusively designed tea pots. For something a little more risqué, sip on our sublimely mixed cocktail menu featuring classics such as Cosmopolitans, Mojitos and Margaritas, or alternatively, turn to our excellent array of locally produced South African wines.

Whether it's a quick, healthy meal that you crave, an intimate dinner with your partner, a business luncheon, or celebratory gathering with family and friends – So Yum is the ideal culinary experience for the vibrant individual.
