You Dim Sum You Lose Some

A few of us met for a Dim Sum Brunch this morning at Super Star.  I have no idea how other meals are in this restaurant, but Sunday Brunch?  Five Stars.  You know it's good when 99% of the customers are Chinese.  Just sayin'.


The wait staff push various carts around to the tables, serving a variety of steamed dumplings, fried wontons, sticky rice, pot stickers, stuffed mushroom dishes, and desserts.



All of the food we tried was good.  In fact, I was in Hong Kong over the summer and ate a variety of dim sum; this meal tasted every bit as flavorful and authentic. 

We recommend trying the Dim Sum Brunch as part of a group in order to get the most bang for your buck.  We were a group of four, and tried multiple dishes, paying only about $16/per person.  It was a great deal, and the place was packed.  To guarantee a seat without a wait, arrive before 11:00 a.m.

Steamed Pork Buns
A BIG HIT!
From the dessert cart, we chose sesame balls (get these for sure!), custard tarts (these too!), and baked taro pastries.
Custard Tarts

Sesame Balls - yes, yes, and yes

Taro Pastries

A final note about the dining experience:  you're going for the tasty food, not the ambiance, not the service.  This is your typical recover-from-Saturday-night's-hangover, get-in-and-eat-all-you-want-then-get-out dining experience.  The food is fresh, tasty, and a bargain.

Enjoy!
