And most recently... DIM SUM & ALL DAY
As soon as I heard it was an all day dim sum place my spidey sense went berserk. I tried mentioning other options like Noodle Palace, KFC, or even cyanide...but I didn't want to be rude to the birthday girl so off we went.
1st Impression: It's 2pm on a Friday...this is SO not the time to go for dim sum.
2nd Impression: Overflowing trashcan as soon as you walk in. ***getting nauseous***
3rd Impression: The smell of rancid oil. ***Mental note not to eat anything fried and getting more nauseous***
4th Impression: I bit down into a COLD piece of siu mai. ***Thinking happy thoughts to hold back chunks***
5th Impression: 'Why aren't we leaving?', I think to myself as we proceed to order MORE food.
6th Impression: 1/2 the food that we order is cold and we are forced to ask the cart lady to get us hotter trays from the bottom of the cart ***Thinking about where I can locate and Epipen and wondering why we're still there***
In summary: This is one of the nastiest dim sum places I have EVER encountered. As I predicted, all day dim sum means a lot of their stuff is frozen and machine made (e.g. har gao, char siu bao, etc.). If you have no idea what good dim sum tastes like, don't like yourself very much, or are in a state where euthanasia is illegal then come on in. Otherwise, avoid like the plague.
