Who loves dim sum? WE LOVE DIM SUM! Yum cha (cantonese for “drinking tea”,aka dim sum) is one of my favorite meals to enjoy on the weekend. I have so many good memories eating dim sum with family and friends so this entry will be entirely devoted to this awesome tradition
We’ve been trying out dim sum establishments for a while now,and more recently we’ve been trying dim sum takeout places. So here’s our quick run-down. Golden Bridge is huge but has lackluster shrimp and seafood dishes. Dim Sum Go Go is too expensive. The ham sui gok (fried oval dumpling with pork and veggies) at Nice One Bakery are excellent. Golden Unicorn is pretty small and the carts actually had pictures and english translations on the sides –half the fun of dim sum is not knowing what’s in the carts
! Robo and D’s favorite are the chiu-chau fun guo (fried rice-flour-skin dumpling with pork and mushrooms) at the super-crowded dim sum takeout place Chatham Restaurant. For a sit-down style dim sum,our current favorite is Jing Fong on Elizabeth St and Canal St –overall good prices and great seafood dishes…but horribly long wait on Sundays.
So please enjoy the pictures –I’ll try to tag them with as much description as possible!
