I can never eat it in restaurants because I&#39;ve vegetarian.

Though, with that said, my favourite place back home, Tai Pan, is super tiny and completely cartless ^_^<BR/><BR/>Darien!<BR/>Thanks! - have fun at dinner tonight! o_O<BR/><BR/>Hey Julie!<BR/>Thanks for your comment! I completely concur on the matter of Chinatown Brasserie - delicious but far too expensive to consider as "dim sum."<BR/><BR/>Hey Alan!<BR/>$120 for dim sum?! I hope it was super tasty! I get bothered anytime it costs more than $10/person, hahaha. I do the same with Hawai'i comparisions...must be automatic reflex ^_^<BR/><BR/>Hey David!<BR/>Thanks! Haha, no celebrity sightings over dim sum, but I'm sure Kare brings good luck! :) Perfect Team Corporation is the only dim sum I've had in Flushing, but I hope to add more to our list! :D<BR/><BR/>Hey Tamakikat!<BR/>Chocolate totally counts! Extra points if it's dark chocolate! o_O<BR/><BR/>Hey Kirk!<BR/>No problem! I wish I had taken more advantage of dim sum in SGV and Rowland Heights whil I was living there!Kathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15937466899315293969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-1771280670870614442008-10-30T06:28:00.000-07:002008-10-30T06:28:00.000-07:00Hey Kathy - I enjoyed the comparison of Dim Sum between cities....thanks for pointing them out!KirkKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05877072133631180313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-66667883514886253872008-10-30T05:44:00.000-07:002008-10-30T05:44:00.000-07:00Mmm. Looks so good. Getting the munchies just looking. Will have to dinner now(!) to survive...I wonder if chocolate counts as dinner? Not the same as dim sum but equally satisfying as ready-to-eat food.

It reminds me (in a good way) of my former home in New York. <BR/><BR/>Are you guys going to check out the dim sum places in Flushing?<BR/><BR/>Saw that Kåre was with you guys. Any more Bourdain or similar Chef sightings? I think he has magical celebrity chef magnetism powers.David Kohhttp://theimportanceofsalt.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-86983369580791291882008-10-28T21:47:00.000-07:002008-10-28T21:47:00.000-07:00Dim Sum! I was just in San Francisco for a Sake event and had Dim Sum at Yank Sing. A flurry of carts, $120, and an hour later the 2 of us ate about 16 "dishes".<BR/><BR/>You're right about Hawaii though, a completely different experience. No matter where or what I eat I usually compare it to something/somewhere in Hawaii. I can't believe that your grandparents drive from Sandy's every day to eat Dim Sum. Must be what keeps them going!<BR/><BR/>Aloha!<BR/>Alan from MakikiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-64652858257952339372008-10-28T18:39:00.000-07:002008-10-28T18:39:00.000-07:00Ah, I have not had yum cha since I moved to New York three years ago, except at China Brasserie, which is very expensive. So exciting to go to the 88! Calvin Trillin, I believe, wanted to keep that place a secret, but that is impossible since he gives these New Yorker mag tours. I wish I could hang with you all during your food adventures!!! I truly enjoy both yours and Robyn's blogs!Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15462547243441548639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-76083062734727589532008-10-28T17:55:00.000-07:002008-10-28T17:55:00.000-07:00ahhh dim sum!!! i love your comparisons. incredible :)Darienhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03785927550307068743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-38954935308762908622008-10-28T16:30:00.000-07:002008-10-28T16:30:00.000-07:00I've had dim sum in Japan, I don't think they do the carts :(K and Shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15375282198168168331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939887.post-32782952798546446542008-10-28T16:18:00.000-07:002008-10-28T16:18:00.000-07:00You didn't mention San Francisco which has a wonderful dim sum culture as well :-) I go every Sunday for brunch and love it.
