Gentrified Dim Sum
Thursday, October 12, 2006
This used to be a go-to place for my friends and family -- the "locals". It appears that the new management is trying to attract a different crowd -- novices, more affluent, and i hate to say it, less ethnic. The changes: prices went up; fried food and dumplings (this, btw, is NOT a traditional dim sum dish -- you've been duped) are more common now than traditional dim sum dishes like tripe and chicken feet. Unfortunately, what made this place good in the first place is being driven out and overhauled. It's not what it used to be. I do not recommend it.
