I was bringing along my nephew and was seated pretty quickly during lunch time. Now I've been to allot of dim sum places in the Vally, and usually the dim sum carts usually come strolling to your table even before the drink order is placed. Not here. My drink order was taken and arrive but still no dim sum. Even a waiter came by to ask if i wanted a menu like i just arrived. I informed him that we wanted dim sum and said the cart would arrive shortly. Now take in mind, there's about six tables eating during the lunch hour and only one dim sum cart going around. So i decide to take a look at the dim sum and lunch menu in case it look a little longer. The dim sum menu is pretty large and the cool thing about weekdays and most of the day, all of the dim sum items in the A,B or C columns are all 2.38. The rest of the menu will cost 4.95.
Finally after two cups of tea the dim sum carts arrives and the lady at the cart is showing me items that pretty much i don't want to try. I only settle on three items, the shrimp dumpling, the pork and veggie dumpling, and baked rolls with BBQ pork inside. I asked for the steamed pork buns but she said she will have it later. Since she didn't have the steamed buns, i settled for the pork and rice wrapped in lotus leaf. All were good but very unexpected because you can get that at any dim sum place.
While eating i was looking at the menu, i noticed these soy sauce chow mein that look like something good. It was 7.95 and didn't want a whole order so asked the waiter if i could get an order but a smaller portion. The waiter said that he can make a dim sum portion for 4.95 and would be happy to get that order in! That i was happy about and it took only a couple of minutes, which was quicker then the dim sum cart to come around! Even thought i had to put in the order, the noodles were amazing, soft and crunchy with bean sprouts! Great way to end my meal and my nephew loved the noodles as well. Next time i come, it may just be for the soy sauce chow mein!
The service is pretty quick but can't say that for the dim sum carts. But I'm gonna just look and see if there are more then one of the carts around before i have dim sum.
