***DIMSUM REVIEW*** NOT HOTPOT***
This place might have the lowest number of stars i've seen on Yelp (1.5* at the time of writing), but thankfully I didn't have the hot pot here and probably never well.
I asked my friend to pick a good dimsum place and he said his favourite was dragon boat down the street, but we had to wake up and get there before 10:30am so I said eff that. This was his second choice, with good food, and more reasonable prices...and never any line up. Given the ratings I'm no longer surprised. But he was right! This place was pretty good...for its dimsum! He's never tried the hot pot there either.
Between the 7 of us, we had a ton of food. For the most part, I got to eat some of my usuals, and some not so usuals:
- shrimp dumpling (hargow): good
- spare ribs and taro: very good
- chicken feet: very good
- chicken rice wrapped in lotus leaves: REALLY GOOD
- shrimp rice roll: good
- beef short ribs: okay
- fried octopus tenacles: okay
- braised beef tendons: okay
I did not break out in hives after having their shrimp, so it must be pretty fresh.
There was a bunch of other stuff as well and they were all decent. The bill was about $10 per person after tax and tip. Super cheap. Service is a little lacking, but not a huge problem.
