i am by no means a dim sum connoisseur, but i have been to few different spots around chinatown and i have to say this was my least favorite. the overall quality of food was lacking along with variety. the carts that were being pushed around seemed to have the same mix of food on them. my chinese friend ended up having to just order/ request the couple of dishes that we were looking for but couldnt find. we also got an order of beef chow mein, while a generous portion it was lacking in overall flavor and tasted a bit burnt.
