| - (aka "Ga Yan Gung")
This is my go-to place for good, authentic dim sum for a great price. If you must go on a weekend, make sure you get there before 11A.M., otherwise you will be right smack in the midst of the "Dim Sum Rush"...on a weekend, every Chinese family, their YeeYees, GungGungs and PoPos will be crowded around the entrance, eagerly awaiting their number to be called.
Classic!
Of course, I always get the usual suspects (Pai Gwat, Siu Mai, Haa Gau, Cheung Fan, etc.). Sometimes I get the curried octopus (forget what that one is called in Cantonese!!).
The Tofu Fa is one of my favourites, although it seems to have a teeny bit more ginger than at other places.
All-in-all, if you want to take your family and/or friends to an authentic Cantonese Dim Sum restaurant, you definitely can't really go wrong with Ginger and Onion.
(As an aside, I have no idea what will happen to this restaurant once the razing of Market Village begins. I hope they open up somewhere close-by!!)
