| - Again, I did my homework, and for Dim Sun brunch before leaving Toronto, I decided to hit up the Bright Pearl. The place is huge, and I recommend getting there before 11 to beat the large Sunday crowd.
Also, as much as it pains me to say it, I feel the experience would have been far more enjoyable with a group. By yourself, you're looking at 3-5 plates before you are full. In a group, with everyone sharing, you can experience far more.
But what I did try was excellent: they had my favorite - Chinese Footballs - as well as roast pork buns, shrimp balls, and shrimp and chive dumplings. They had more than a dozen other items, but at that point I was stuffed and about to crash.
Also reason for 4 stars: table location is VERY important. You can easily get forgotten in certain areas. Also, as I finished as the crowd started to come in, and as I was by myself, it took a decent amount of time for me to get my to go box and the check.
I still recommend trying it, but will attempt to do so with friends next time. As well, Rol San is across the street, so I may look into that as well.
