Chef's Wok — Restaurant in Alameda

Went on a Tuesday at 1:30p and was greeted and sat immediately. The staff were welcoming, and service was very good. Lots of elderlies celebrating Lunar New Year and laughing up a good time. Ordered 6 dim sum items, and although it took some time to arrive, every dish arrived piping hot. The bean curd rolls were delicious, sesame balls were crunchy, and the dumplings were juicy, flavorable and sizable. Unfortunately, the pan fried turnip cake was a little soggy and the steamed dumplings (har gow and shrimp & spinach) stuck to the paper liner, causing the wrapper to tear and ingredients to fall out...not sure if they steamed them too long.

Generally, for a group of 3 people you have to wait around ten to 15 minutes during rush hour. However, despite these, I recommend going to this place! The food is really good and I can't...

The combination of pig intestine along with the frog may not sound appetizing, but from here it was to die for. It simply can not get better than it was here. It was so good, I would be willing to sacrifice my first born child, just for a fraction of something not even half as good. The experience is hard to describe , but I can try. It gave me the same experience in terms of dopamine, as when I first downloaded Truth Social, and followed our lord and savior Donald Trump (amen). I would get on my knees for more than just Jesus, just to hear someone eat it through a walkie talkie. It was truly...
