This place is a lot nicer looking inside than outside, so don’t let the run down exterior scare you off. Also a lot of families when I went early on Sunday and some intermittent kid wailing but again, don’t let it keep you from trying out some excellent Chinese food. The joy of dim sum is the same as sushi–small plates so you can try a lot of different dishes in as many different combinations as you want. Dim Sum is another place like Omi and Nine Dragon Noodle House where you can find some interesting things that you don’t normally run across. I had one of the shrimp dumplings and one of the pork dumplings, but the curried calimari really stole the show this trip. And the hot chrysanthemum tea was wonderful.
I also thought that I had ordered sweet rice wrapped in a banana leaf, but apparently I missed the mark and ended up with the fried ice cream that was right above it on the menu. Lucky mistake. Loved the fried ice cream and now I have a dish to start with next time I head over to Dim Sum.
