Hidden Gem Dim Sum Spot Near Columbia 🥢｜Dim Sum Bloom

On a trip upstate, I stumbled upon Dim Sum Bloom near Columbia University — and every dish was a flavorful delight! Here’s what stood out: 🦆 Duck Crystal Dumplings — delicate, translucent wrappers filled with savory duck. The flavor is richer than pork, yet not heavy, especially with their house dipping sauce. 🍚 Sticky Rice Siu Mai — hearty, traditional, and perfectly chewy. Packed with diced meat, it’s fragrant, filling, and satisfying. 🥟 Pan-Fried Soup Dumplings — crispy-bottomed, juicy, and packed with flavorful pork broth. A must-try — just be careful, they’re hot! 🔥 🍖 Plum Sauce Short Ribs — tender, sweet, and tangy with a hint of plum. Unexpectedly delicious and super appetizing. 🐟 Pickled Mustard Fish — the star of the meal! Fresh, silky fish in a tangy, savory broth — perfect for sharing. 🍲 Crab Roe Tofu — smooth tofu in a delicate crab roe sauce. Subtle yet memorable, with a gentle umami depth. 🥭 Mango Pomelo Sago — a refreshing, sweet-tart finish with mango, pomelo, and chewy sago. The perfect ending. ❤️ Dim Sum Bloom balances tradition and creativity beautifully. I only wish I’d found it when I was still at Columbia! 😄 📍 Address: 2596 Broadway, New York, NY 10025 Loved this off-the-radar dim sum find?
