Authentic dim sum! Anyone who knows me will know I'm always scouring Portsmouth for authentic cuisines. Just popped by, expecting it to be the previous Chinese buffet ( which was also quite good ) but was please to discover it was now a sit down restaurant offering dim sum all day 7 days a week! I decided to choose one of my all time favourites, chee cheong fun. 1 beef and 1 char sui. Friendly waiter / waitress service, nice layout and an awesome menu.
