Dim Sum

1. China Garden…

so pass on that but beef with Chinese broccoli was also very good.  Went for dim sum Saturday and since we were one of the first to be there, we felt like royalty as all the carts waited in line...

2. Lucky Three…

The food here is great. I haven't tried the dim sum here. But in the evenings I go for dinner. The servings are a good size. The sauces are not too greasy. The servers are polite and quick. Prices...

3. Chinatown Express

Neighborhood: Chinatown

wrapped in a dense dough like the one used in chow mein noodles.  Oh well, but that's not their fault.  I do fault them for making the filling too bland and dry, and for undercooking the dumplings...

4. Wok and Roll

Neighborhood: Chinatown

I've had my fair share of Chinese food and if I had to compare, Wok and Roll is at best, mediocre.  The shrimp lo mein was good, but definitely not as good as it should have been.  The shrimp were...

5. Eat First Restaurant

Neighborhood: Chinatown

stands on every table.   A myriad of Chow Foon options, Hong Kong style soups, Congee and more.  Clams in black bean sauce are great, and for a real treat try the crispy shrimp with walnuts!  Large...
