| - went for Dim Sum, I asked for water, the waitress kept insisting that I get tea also. I finally said fine. She brought 2 tea cups, which by the way, one was for me the other person with me is my 3 year old son. Does he drink hot tea, I think not. There must be something to it.
I keep wanting to get the satay hot sauce, and asked several ladies pushing the carts, they keep telling me " ask the waitress." I haven't seen a waitress pass for any request. when I finally raised my voice to get the attention of a waitress, she said we only have 1 type of hot sauce.
NOT REAL AUTHENTIC dim sum, if they do not have the satay hot sauce.
The fried shrimp balls was OK, a bit dry. The steam rice noodle with beef on the inside, was weird. Noodles too chewy, and the beef seems like it was from some kind of beef paste, (its and Asian thing)
I did like the siu-mai though, it was good. seems like it was steam with little fish eggs on top.
I got my check, they actually charge $.50 for tea for each person. That was why the waitress keep wanting me to say yes for tea. Forget the $ amount, it's the principles of the matter.
So I will keep to my usual favorite place Cathay House, in china town for Dim Sum. Good food, good service.
