It was not the best Dimsum I have had but it is a cut above the rest especially if you are used to Dimsum in NYC,
We had Dimsum a few things I remember were Rice Noodle rolls with peanut sauce and The Peking Duck is a must try. Though there were more…More »

We went to San Fransisco several years ago. The China town in San Fransisco though small is much cleaner than ours. The restaurants are cleaner as well. Maybe I enjoyed it more because it wasn't in NYC in our filthy China town. The service was…More »

It is a busy restaurant and dining is communal. The noodles were very fresh as were the other menu items. It was good but I wouldn't go out of my way to go here. The prices were cheaper than we pay in NYC and the quality a little better. The menu is…More »

I was slightly disappointed because it has such a great reputation! It was good but not great! A few of the other Toronto area Chinese  restaurants were better. Zagat rated it high. I expected better. I had also read it was the best Dimsum in North…More »

I am not sure but I do not think this is the same restaurant as Asian Legend. Asian Legend is a chain. This is not a chain restaurant. The Dimsum was better than in NYC as it is today since our China towns and Dimsum have gone down hill but not…More »

I have  tried most of the dumpling places in NYC and no I won't rate them. In fact the dumplings in NYC I call poop dumplings because they smell like poop. These don't smell like poop! And they taste good! Why can't we have good dumplings in any of…More »
