AMAZING
1st HAR CHEONG FUN - SHRIMP RICE NOODLE ROLLS
Wan Chai Corner, London
This is one of the better versions of this dim sum staple I've ever had. Lots of large shrimp, supple noodle. Delicious!
2nd SHUI MAI (PORK AND SHRIMP DUMPLINGS)
Oriental Garden, New York
These dumplings were really juicy...one of the best of the meal. And no gristle from the pork, so a great texture!
3rd STEAMED SEAFOOD DUMPLINGS
Dim Sum Go Go, New York
These might have been my favorite...I think they were filled with shrimp, scallops and crabmeat. Another order, please!!!
4th BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP
Oriental Garden, New York
Deep fried shrimp wrapped in crispy, greaseless bacon. Two of my favorite things together!
5th FRIED SHRIMP ROLLS
Oriental Garden, New York
Little finger size nuggets of crispy fried rolls, stuffed with shrimp. I could eat a dozen of these.
6th BAKED ROAST PORK WEDGES
Oriental Garden, New York
Light and flaky. The dough is made with lard which gives them a great light texture. Yum
7th FRIED SHRIMP AND FRIED CRAB CLAWS
Oriental Garden, New York
What's not to like about fried shrimp balls and fried crab claws?
8th SEAFOOD DUMPLINGS
Oriental Garden, New York
Mixed shrimp and scallop wrapped in a thin wrapper. Yum
9th SHARK FIN DUMPLINGS
Oriental Garden, New York
My friend asked if they were actually filled with shark fin. I told him, probably not because it's too expensive of an ingredient. Nowadays most places use vermicelli or gelatin to mimic the shark fin. Either way, these were great, dipped in the red chili paste they offer.
10th HONG KONG STYLE PORK DUMPLINGS
Oriental Garden, New York
Minced pork inside a slightly sweet rice flour "shell" that is deep fried. I like how the server cuts the little football-shaped dumplings with scissors.
11th BOK CHOY
Oriental Garden, New York
These were delicious, but they did take up a lot of room in my belly. Room that I should have saved for more dumplings!!!!!
REALLY GOOD
12th HAR GOW SHRIMP DUMPLINGS
Wan Chai Corner, London
My fave. Nothing new here but this was a good version.
13th STEAMED CRAB DUMPLINGS
Dim Sum Go Go, New York
Three dumplings...so hard to share between two people. Had to fight for the last one! ;) delicate taste to this dumpling
14th DEEP FRIED SHRIMP BALLS
Dim Sum Go Go, New York
Yummy, crispy shrimp balls. I want more, right now!!!
15th SNOW PEA LEAF DUMPLINGS
Dim Sum Go Go, New York
Love these, even if they are vegetarian! ;)
16th PAN FRIED CHIVE DUMPLINGS
Oriental Garden, New York
Filled with chives and shrimp. The dumpling skin was a little too chewy.
