This (literally) underground Chinese joint is my top pick for Dim Sum in the city. Great service, lots of seating, and good for groups. The plates are served scorchingly fresh and fast, and they pride themselves on having a lot of options. If you…More »

My second favourite Dim Sum restaurant in T.O. If you show up on the weekend make sure you get here before 11:45. At noon, the rest of Toronto shows up in search of steamed and fried excellence.

Category: Dim Sum

I definitely felt like an out-of-place street urchin within the splendour and opulence that is Crown Princess Fine Dining. There are walls lined with onyx, a velveteen damask carpet, fine tablecloths (I'm used to plastic at dim sum), behemoth marble…More »

After Rol San kicked our Saturday night plans in the balls (our fault), we scurried to Bright Pearl -- fingers crossed that they were serving dim sum. They were! And hosting their staff anniversary party, but they invited us in anyway. In a slick…More »

Came here to celebrate Year of the Rabbit with a dozen peeps roughly split between Asian and gwai lo. Our hosts were regulars so the service was pretty solid and attentive. The food on the other hand was a hit and miss. Just for fun, let me enumerate…More »

Are you DTF[1]? I wouldn't have made the gargantuan trek up the DVP to visit for a UYE if I wasn't. Ding Tai Fung is located at Woodbine and Hwy 7 and is tucked into a strip mall packed with Asian eats. When we walked in on Sunday morning it was…More »
