You do not want to piss off a Chinese mother by offending her with disgusting dumplings!<br /><br />I'd like to add Serenedipity 3 to the "suck" list..that dessert place near Bloomingdale's. Their frozen hot chocolate is the only good thing on the menu. Place is quirky. But the food is just disgusting and overpriced..not to mention the patrons are comprised of little girls and their families who looked like they just came from the American Girl Place Store and are ignorant to good food. <br /><br />As for Asian places: Shanghai Garden. I don't know which part of Shanghai inspired this place but it sure as hell isn't any place I've been to. This place just plain sucks. Have you seen the "xiaolongbao"? They should rename it "greasy bottomed meat&vegetable puree stuffed mantaou". Yes the "skin" is not xiaolongbao skin at all..it literally is a bready, white bao.

Over time, I realized a lot of dishes just can't be judged that way. I'd much rather eat 10 din tai fung dumplings that are clean and balanced than one really big greasy soup dumpling. Its preference. As for using the word "asian" i definitely agree. I used it a couple times when I am referring to chinese, vietnamese, japanese, korean food altogether. its kind of convenient on a blog but for the record i agree with you.<br /><br />dim sum go go, not bad, not great. i think its on the "balanced" flavor profile side but even in my opinion, there isn't that oomph, that "soul" that you want in the food. Which is again why I like din tai fung and da dong so much. They achieve that balanced flavor but its complex and has depth.<br /><br />"anonymous" who came to CNY. sorry you didn't like it. if its too bland, let me know. if you tell me at the dinner, i'll do everything in my power to make it fit your expectations! no need to leave unhappy. if your attitude going to restaurants is that you want to "catch" someone on an off day, you're going to be unhappy. But, if you've ever worked in a kitchen, you know, that there's a lot we can do to make you happy. We had 15 people from the dinners who came last week just re-reserve for a private seating of the dinner in march so clearly people liked it. I've never said our restaurant is perfect. Just like we underfried a piece of tofu for the vv critic, we maybe underseasoned your soup. Let me know and I'll make it right.MagicDongHuanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05688404830328637085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414543282934010780.post-78593655583330355842010-02-17T11:37:58.822-05:002010-02-17T11:37:58.822-05:00Since we're in rant mode, what are your though...Since we're in rant mode, what are your thoughts on Dim Sum Go Go?Le Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594493003103231002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414543282934010780.post-77097151431877657032010-02-17T10:31:14.878-05:002010-02-17T10:31:14.878-05:00Have to disagree about Joe's.

And I don't know if "course" is the right word for it - I see why you don't like it - but they're flavorful and very soupy and a lot of people can't get it right (read: most dimsum places), so for most people, you're stuck with Joe's.<br /><br />After moving to LA, I went to Din Tai Fung a whopping once. In three years. Yes they're tiny and delicate but massively overpriced and not "wow."
