Came here on a Saturday for lunch with the family. The place was much bigger than expected and located in a strip mall. I read and heard good things about this restaurant and decided to give it a try. Overall, it was a good experience, the soup dumplings were definitely the star. Besides the soup dumplings, we ordered scallion pancakes, cucumber with garlics, pan fried dumplings, and fried rice. Perfect amount for family of 5.
The truffle and pork soup dumplings, along with their equally exquisite counterpart, the crab and pork soup dumplings, left an indelible impression that will keep me craving more.
The truffle and pork soup dumplings were a true work of art. The thin, translucent wrapper was expertly pleated, encasing a tantalizing combination of finely minced pork and fragrant truffles. The aroma alone was enough to make my mouth water in anticipation. As I delicately picked up a dumpling with my chopsticks and took a small bite, the wrapper yielded to reveal a burst of flavors. The succulent pork, infused with the earthiness of truffles, danced on my palate, while the rich and savory broth inside added an unexpected depth. Each bite was a harmonious symphony of tastes and textures that left me yearning for more.
Equally memorable were the crab and pork soup dumplings. These dumplings were a testament to the delicate art of dim sum craftsmanship. The carefully crafted wrapper held a filling made from a combination of succulent crab meat and tender pork, creating a perfect balance of flavors. The sweetness of the crab mingled beautifully with the savory notes of the pork, resulting in a delectable filling that was both light and indulgent. The soup within was a delicate and flavorful elixir, showcasing the natural sweetness of the crab. With each bite, I couldn't help but be transported to the seaside, with the flavors of the ocean mingling on my palate.
Please be mindful that the broth in the dumplings can be very hot.
The staff members were attentive and quick to assist, ensuring that my dining experience started on the right note. However, what truly captured my attention was the adorable robot server gliding effortlessly between tables, delivering orders with precision and a touch of novelty.
The robot server was an ingenious addition to the dining environment. Its sleek design and seamless navigation added an element of modernity to the overall ambiance. It efficiently transported trays of food and beverages, ensuring that orders arrived promptly and accurately. Watching the robot gracefully maneuver through the restaurant was an experience in itself, eliciting smiles and curiosity from both adults and children alike.
We will be back!!!
