Hmmm, I've been to the Cathay House 2 times in the last 3 months and one time, it was great, the other time, it was barely good. I hope that doesn't mean you have to go with a Chinese friend for it to be great! lol They kinda embarrassed me because I took a friend who I'd been telling how great the dim sum was. I'll still give it 3 stars but if I go next time and the dumplings are not great, I probably won't go back... even though I love their steamed Chinese Broccoli!
Might see ya there.
