The Lowdown:
Not your typical Cantonese chow-down, but the variety they offer is quite surprising.
Give it a try— it's just conveniently downtown, and more wallet-friendly than those higher end traditional dim sum diners.

Order this: Fried yam/ carrot cake; it is one of the best I've had.

The breakdown
From top to bottom in the image, here are my ratings from "meh" to "fair".
• Chee cheong fun(猪肠粉)
Rice noodles rolls were meh. The sauce was oddly starchy, reminding me more of a Hokkien paste than the Cantonese soy sauce most of us are familiar with.
• Char siu bao(叉烧包)
BBQ pork buns were eh. The pork could have been better seasoned.
• Hor yip fun(荷叶饭)
Lotus-wrapped rice was fair— actually it was better than I was expecting
• Minced meat Cuttlefish porridge(墨鱼粥)was fair. Pink cuttlefish were quite chewy; some prefer that. There was barely any minced meat in it. I don't imagine they evenly distribute ingredients in their dishes.

Pity they didn't have Dan tat(蛋挞)Egg tart or Char siu sou(叉烧酥)BBQ pork pastry on the menu. These are usually what defines the classic dim sum experience for me.
