My best dim sum experience in Cape Town. Yes, the ambiance is quiet and whacky, yes, the place is overly lit and bright, yes its basically a hole in the wall takeaway joint and yes, communication can be a slight challenge. But forget all that. None of it detracts from the warmth of the service and the superb quality of all the food (okay, maybe not the edamame, but everything else). We ordered most menu options available and it was all delicious. The lamb skewers are a particular highlight, as is the mushroom salad. Cannot wait to go there again. Book the big table, go with 5 of your closest mates and go in with the correct mindset (no, this is not fine dining), take some booze (they have no liquor license, and no corkage fee), order everything on the menu and still pay next to nothing for a great dinner. Highly recommended.
