The white table service is a refreshing change from the regular chinese out of the box decor. Bathrooms very clean, check, restaurant very clean, check, view very nice, check. Servers still have that untrained attidude you get at chinese restaurants (4 people checked out bill fold to see if we were done, brought us all forks/knives didn't ask and water for three although one was asked for). Parking is free in the hotel as long as you bring ticket to be verified. Then you go to concierge of hotel for them to scan.\n\nEach dish step by step:\n\nPork with Mushrooms in a Sweet Pastry: tasted like the british pasties that you get, I liked it. Husband didn't. Kinda a chinese meat pie. 3 for $3.50 each maybe not worth the price but overhead is high here.\n\nSeafood Springroll with a peanut schewan peanut dip: Although tasty it was on the greasy side not much seafood taste the deep fried overpowered the filling. Dip was very good. They were $3.50 per order and served individual to each diner.\n\nLobster in noodle with butter and cilantro in steamer, one comes in each steamer shaped as a lobster, although interesting not that great would pass on this one. $6.00 each\n\nSpareribs in garlic with noodle, was good but not that different from Rol San Piquat. $6.00\n\nSui Mai with scallops was on par with all dim sum that is a reasonable restaurant $6.00 for 4\n\nChinese greens with oyster sauce $8.00 for an order that was very small and seemed out of season. I don't get it this stuff, it is so cheap to buy in chinatown but always a king''s ransom at any chinese restaurant..take a pass\n\nsteamed tofu with shrimp and scallions, the shrimp was very good and fresh the tofu was too small the size of a quarter and they only gave you two in the steamer $6.00\n\nHar chung fun and sticky rice in lotus leaf...both exceptionally good but pricey $8.00 each (2 sticky rice, 3 shrimp roll)\n\nJasmine tea $2.00 each is very good, one beer tsing tao $7.50\n\nThree people $90.97 plus $15 tip. free parking.\n\nAlthough pricey the quality is above many dim sum places in the downtown core. It is fresh but not outstanding in creativity. Will try again and stick to the regular fair we usually order. Maybe a 3 times a year kinda of place."^^ . "0"^^ . "1"^^ .
