Dim Sum Feast at Emperor's Court, Manggis Hua Ho Mall

Two weeks ago, on a sunny Sunday, we had decided to raid Orchid Garden's Vanda Restaurant for its dim sum buffet. However, upon arrival, we were told that the restaurant was booked for private function. It was kinda sad but nonetheless, there's still another place in town where we could get dim sum buffet.
It's Emperor's Court!
Emperor's Court is located in Manggis Hua Ho Mall and they have this dim sum buffet brunch on every Sunday at the price of $19.50 per adult.
Actually, this wasn't my first visit. I have actually visited it like two years ago and was still using my humble little Sony Camera.
I was so overjoyed that I kept snapping away with lotsa pictures in the restaurant.
But, things didn't go that smooth. When I went home, I tried to transfer the pictures to my laptop, the memory card failed on me and *poof* my pictures were all gone.
I was so sad that I almost "long-piak".
And thank God it didn't happen this time! HAHAHAHA
Ok, Ok, enough ramblings.
By comparison, OGH charges $12.80 per head for its dim sum buffet which is way cheaper than Emperor's Court.
OGH would provide wider varieties of choices on dim sum and meanwhile, Emperor's choices of dim sum aren't that much.
I think the reason why Emperor's is charging at that price is because of its Baked Mussels which was one of the items on the menu and also chicken rice and lotsa varieties on fritters (eg. fried wan tan, salad prawn, sesame balls and etc).
In which, OGH does not serve mussels on their menu and also chicken rice but they do serve Kolo Mee.
Food wise, I would prefer OGH as I feel their food tastes nicer.
So it's really up to you to conclude whether which one is more worth lar.
