| - Dim sum here was A-OK - but no better than that. Definitely subpar vs. dim sum houses in the SF Bay Area!!!
Carts came around regularly, but didn't have much variety.
Har gow was tasty (and the shrimp seemed fresh), but very small.
Baked shar siu bao was very good, excellent bbq pork, sweet bun.
Steamed shar siu bao was good, but small.
We kept asking for the xiao lum bao Shanghai dumplings, and the cart ladies said "it's coming!" Finally we asked a waiter, and she said you had to order it--and it'd take 15 min. Meh! Had they admitted this the first time we asked, we could have ordered it and enjoyed it!
Crab claw balls were huge--the shrimp ball part was delicious, but the actual crab claw was tiny and crab meat wasn't good (tasted previously frozen)
Deep fried shrimp dumplings were excellent, tasty/fresh/crisp.
Gai lan was tender and delicious, but VERY small (both in terms of the size of the vegetable stalks and in quantity on the plate compared to any Bay Area dim sum house)
Mango pudding was regular.
