When they re-opened the placeafter a lenghthy 2-year renovation, I was super excited because they are the only high end Chinese seafood restaurant that offers Dim Sum services in the Downtown business district. But I was slightly disappointed with that visit. The quality of the Dim Sum dishes just didn&#8217;t justify the pricy bill. However, as I always give anyone or anything a second chance, I took my co-worker Gordon there for his first Dim Sum experience. This time the food was way better. Not only it turned\u00a0Gordon into a Dim Sum lover, it also impressed me tremendously.<\/p>\n<p>As I picked\u00a0the most common dishes for Gordon&#8217;s Dim Sum 101, they were all extremely well prepared and up to my standards. We started with some <strong>Hot and Sour Soup<\/strong> to wake up our palate with some strong but balanced peppery and vinegary <a style=\"text-decoration:none; font-weight:normal; color:#000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.levitra-meds.net\/\"> where can i buy levitra <\/a> kicks. The <strong>BBQ Pork Pastry<\/strong> had a fluffy crust and the pork inside was moist and tasty. Wrapped in lotus leaf, the <strong>Mini-Lo Mai Gai<\/strong> (Sticky Rice with Chicken) definitely had a cool factor to please Gordon with the lovely refreshing lotus scent. The rice noodle sheet in the <strong>Beef Rice Noodle Roll<\/strong> was so smooth and firm, uber delicious with the special sweet soy sauce. And when it came down to the must-have King-of-Dim-Sum, <strong>Har Gow <\/strong>(Shrimp Dumpling), it definitely hit the home run with the perfectly thin and firm dumpling skin, and some snappy shrimp fillings that could not taste any fresher.<\/p>\n<p>I was definitely much happier to split the $40 bill this time&#8230; And I will come back soon!!!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6515\"
