  • We went for dim sum, sunday afternoon. The place looks grand, the new chandelier makes it look very modern, except the birch wood paneling looks cheap, go figure. This place is huge, they had chinese banquet in mind when they opened this place, there are going to be many a weddings here, can't wait to go hahaha... The dim sum here is different, you get a list and check off what you want and they bring it. Don't forget to ask for the picture book so you can order the dish you want without really knowing what it's called, as the french/english translation is somewhat misleading and sometimes just contradictory. We found a veggie item on the menu which was translated into shrimp dumpling in english and listed as vegetarien in french... if you don't read mandarin it's a ring toss really, lol. But if you have the picture book it helps. I like the new way of ordering dim sum, you order what you want, and you're not tempted to over order because they don't have traveling carts and don't pander to you anymore... it's a more sedated dim sum experience, there is no longer that element of anticipation when a cart rolls by, but at least when you get your food it's just what you want to order. A lot of places do it this way now, it's more efficient and there is less food waste. They have a few items that I would definitely try next time as I don't see it at other dim sum joints in mtl. The food is tasty, it is well cooked and cooked right. from dumpling to soup to noodles it is all good. We ate it all without soy sauce or hot sauce, the mark of good sim sum is you eat it without condiments, and on that point, this place really shine!!! ding ding ding. The thing that ticked me off a bit was the service, it was not up to par for an upscale place. Service is inefficient (although I don't grade on service) add that to the pricey food (42$ for two taxes and tips included, avg price whould be 10-15$ pp), it makes me reconsider coming back here often. I would definitely come back because there are things that really make me curious, like what's their peking duck like? But the price and service means I'm gonna have to come when I have extra dough and not in a rush... which rarely happens :P
