Message: | Hi Thi -- Thanks for the heads-up on the Din Tai Fung Dumpling House. Sounds like it's definitely worth a try. Last time we wandered around the Monterey Park area without any luck. It kind of surprised me, since here in NYC we have a number of Chinese joints that serve various incarnations of traditional Buddhist temple cuisine, including dim sum. I was hoping to find something similar out in SoCal, but found a whole lot of lard-based dim sum instead (don't get me wrong, I loved it, particularly Harbor Village, but felt bad for the strict vegetarian I was with). Thanks for the response! |
