Outside of Chinatown, good restaurant that serves dim sum is hard to find. The best, so far, is Silver Pond Seafood. Dim Sum is served daily from 11.30 to 2. I recommend getting there early, especially on weekends. They do take reservations as well. I highly recommend it for large groups.
Off the cart, be sure to grab: Shrimp Shu Mai and Shrimp Har Gow. The Pork Shu Mai is not that bad, but I highly recommend the Shrimp version.
Other favorite items worth trying:
- Salt and Pepper Fried Shrimp
- Calamari
- Pan Fried Noodle with Superior Soy Sauce
- Gai Lan with Oyster Sauce
- Sticky Rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf
- Sesame balls (shown, right)
- Steamed sponge cake
