| - There are many things to like about this restaurant, which I was lucky enough to visit for Sunday morning dim sum. The decor really works. Red pillars and gold Chinese patterns line the interior. The place is very clean, including the staff. The staff are very professional and friendly. The price is pretty reasonable (paid about $12/person). And it even has a few TVs in the place, which came in handy watching the Sunday morning football game.
However, what puts this place over the top is the food. It tasted fresh, was delicious and even, dare I say it, was well presented and had the right textures. The dumpling whites were snow white and fluffy, the dumpling yellows were golden, the spring rolls had that perfect juicy-crispy texture to it. My sense is someone is paying attention to the quality of the food here. It's one of the few places I've been to where the food looks as good as it tastes. A remarkable feat, hats off!
There is no cart service here, which takes away from the all important visual dim sum experience. However, this may be a place where I don't need see the product before purchase. A first for me ever in a dim sum place.
I know this place has undergone renovations and new ownership, perhaps they are looking to impress. Will be back to see if the quality still persists over time. If they continue this, I'm going to have to up them to five stars!
