  • First time trying out Sunday dim sum here. Husband and I were crazy enough to decide spur of the moment to get dim sum in this crazy Chinese plaza on a Sunday at 12:40pm, just at the peak of lunch rush and all the church goers are getting out and wanting their dim sum too. I pulled into the parking lot expecting to fight a war for a spot. Given it's a Chinese plaza filled with bad drivers, first impression is "avoid coming here at all cost on the weekends". Luckily we got a spot right in front of the doors to Paradise. Good thing too, since we had our 5-month old baby to bring in too. We figure being a Chinese restaurant, there would be no room for a stroller, so we only took the car seat in. We were greeted with a friendly hostess who assured us the wait will be very short because a lot of tables just left. And it was true. Why else would I get such a kickass parking spot? The cleaning up of these sudden free tables was slow though, and we still had to wait about 20 minutes for our number to be called. We got one of the coveted "cah ways" (booth seats) by the window. It was wide enough to slide in the car seat. The dim sum was ordered via order sheet. The selection was good. We ordered the usual suspects. Har gow, siu mys, shrimp rice roll, ham soy gok, sticky rice in lotus leaf, and 2 sweet dishes for dessert. In general, the food was very good. Arrived nice and hot. We both found the food to be a little on the bland side though. The filling of the ham soy gok for example could have used a bit more seasoning and flavour. On the plus side, there was no evidence of MSG or over salting, both of which are abundant in Chinese restaurants. The decor was nice and contemporary. The service was tentative considering the weekend lunch rush. However we did have to wave down a waiter to refill our tea pot, which had been sitting with the lid up for more than 10 minutes. Overall Paradise was found in this chaotic plaza filled with bad drivers who all insist on reverse parking and blocking traffic while doing so. Would I return to Paradise? Yes, but only on the weekends when I don't have to fight a war to find a spot.
