We visited for a traditional Cantonese meal and had the Ginger and Scallion Chicken (Jiang Cong…read moreJi). While the flavor was clean and aromatic, the kitchen used chicken breast rather than the traditional bone-on thigh meat, which made the texture a bit chewy. We also tried the Szechuan Squid. Be aware that this is more of an "American-style" Szechuan dish -- it was sweet and sour rather than spicy and lacked the traditional peppers or numbing heat. However, the texture of the squid was remarkably soft and tender, reminiscent of an Italian-style slow-cooked calamari, which was a pleasant surprise. To round out the meal, the Dry Fried String Beans with Minced Pork (Gan Bian Si Ji Dou) were a solid highlight. As someone who frequently eats at more 'cleaver-heavy' Chinatown spots like Jin Wei, I found Lee How Fook to be a friendly and consistent spot, but the preparations here are definitely tailored to a much milder palate. If you are looking for that specific 'hacked' bone-in dark meat or a fiery Szechuan kick, this might feel a bit safe.

Came here on a Friday morning while visiting Philadelphia to try their dim sum, and we were…read morepleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was! We ordered the chicken lo mein (without vegetables for my nephew), diced dry spicy chicken, xiao long bao (XLB), pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao, chicken feet, crystal shrimp dumplings, and egg tarts. The chicken lo mein was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of salt and flavor. The diced dry spicy chicken came with a side of rice, which balanced the bold seasoning nicely. The chicken was crispy on the outside while remaining juicy on the inside, and the spice level was around a 5/10, which is enough to give it a satisfying kick without being overwhelming. The XLB wasn't served with julienned ginger, as some restaurants do, but the broth inside the dumplings had a subtle ginger flavor that was a pleasant surprise. The dumplings were well-seasoned and flavorful enough that they didn't even need soy sauce. The pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao (five dumplings per order) was slightly less authentic than I expected. While the flavor was spot on, the filling lacked any soup, and both the top and bottom of the bao were crispy (typically just the bottom of the dumpling is pan-seared). They ended up tasting more like well-made pan-fried dumplings than traditional Sheng Jian Baos. The chicken feet came three to an order and were tender, with a savory sauce that had a hint of sweetness. The crystal shrimp dumplings were fresh and delicate, and the egg tarts made for a great way to finish the meal with their flaky crust and creamy custard filling. The service here was excellent. Our server spoke almost perfect English, which isn't always expected at restaurants specializing in authentic dim sum. The food arrived quickly, piping hot, and they accept both cash and credit cards. The restaurant is fairly spacious, though it doesn't have the large banquet-style atmosphere you might associate with some traditional Chinese restaurants. Overall, this was an excellent dim sum experience, and I will definitely come back the next time I'm in Philadelphia.

We finally made time to stop by Wow Cafe! Don't blink or you'll miss this place.

Very happy to have a Hong Kong style Cha Chan Tang restaurant right here in Edison, NJ. While there are a few places in NYC, its nice to see Jersey finally get one too. The stars if today were the appetizer dishes. The rice noodles with the special peanut sauce was 100% the best and exactly what you'd expect when you order that dish. The squid and popcorn chicken were both amazing and fried lightly but with a great crispy texture. The small pineapple bun with butter was delicious. We actually had it as a starter and again for dessert. While we loved the apps, the baked rice with pork chop and pepper steak rice bowls were just ok. They weren't amazingly flavorful, but they were still tasty with heavy portions so the value was there. We had HK style milk tea and topped off our meal with their special creamy french toast. Overall we left overly full and didn't have to pay too much. Wow Cafe is very affordable and the staff is very friendly and fast to cater to your needs. It may not look like much on the outside, but the food definitely brings me back and hits the spot!

Very creamy without being overly sweet, and the toast was perfectly crispy just the way I like it Milk Tea (4/5): A classic HK-style milk tea, rich, smooth, and spot on. You can't go wrong. Beef Stew Ho Fun (4.25/5): Very enjoyable. The beef stew was super tender and the ho fun noodles had a great texture, though the broth could have used a touch more depth and flavor Baked Pork Chop over Fried Rice in Tomato Sauce (3/5): The sauce had great flavor, but adding peppers and red onions felt a bit unusual. You don't typically see those in traditional baked pork chop dishes, and they didn't quite go well imo Overall, a solid spot for a HK cafe

Though a small restaurant sounds horrible, it was great because there was no need to flag down the dim sum carts or wait for service. The carts came by quickly and multiple times while the wait staff was readily available to clear our table. The dim sum is good but not as great as other places. That's not to say that the dim sum wasn't delicious. The basics are done well and each steamer came out hot. The only gripe I had was that the rice noodle rolls had thicker noodles compared to the filling but it's not that big of a deal. The shu mai, shrimp dumplings, chive dumplings, chicken feet, etc, were just as good as anywhere else. I would consider coming back just for the dim sum!

My party usually intake weekend Chinese Dim Sum. Mona Lisa Vito: "I bet the Chinese food here is terrible. How's your Chinese food?" Vinny Gambini: "You just keep askin' about Chinese food. Can't you tell they don't have Chinese restaurants around here? You gotta let everybody know you're a tourist. Come on." - "My Cousin Vinny" 1992 film The staff speaks Cantonese which is very good to hear Cantonese spoken as it is mellifluous... at long last to continue this vernacular Chinese language. Chinese Dim Sum is regionally specific to Cantonese originating from the Guangdong province, ergo Cantonese will continue to survive as vernacular language. When we arrived there was one party of five middle age and elderly men who were conversing boisterously loud in Cantonese, but they were not arguing as it appeared that is their characteristic volume for communicating among each other. It seemingly appears every person within this party of five men want their individual spotlight as the desideratum to be heard without interruption and without judgment, therefore battle with loud vocally expressing one's thoughts. "Silence doesn't always mean you have nothing to say. It means you know that no matter what you say, nothing will change." - Snoopy, Peanuts by American cartoonist Charles M. Schulz I received complaints that I have been told I am too loud, but certainly this party of five men are louder. Ergo, stop with your vile complaints about me! My party of three found the quality of food average as juxtaposition for New York City Dim Sum. There are no dine-in menu to order platter entrées if the Dim Sum dishes does not eat your fill. Customer service is average. The Dim Sum trolley women appear nonchalant and less enthusiasm as they can determined to ascertain that my party and I are non-Pennsylvanians, but out-of-towners. We chosen Pu'er tea, bou2 nei2 普洱茶 as the default Dim Sum tea to help with digestion. The tea pot was metal but it was not boiling hot water rather lukewarm temperature for tea which is unorthodox for Dim Sum tradition. Business cards are available for grabs. I did obtained my sales receipt. Nevertheless, a Dim Sum Sunday brunch was a equanimity state achieved to balance work life in the company of family in fleeting times. Let's Yum Cha! My foodie synopsis: Shrimp dumpling 蝦 餃 (haa1 gaau2)- filled with small pieces of shrimp and the dumpling skin was rather thick. The dumpling skin was sticking to the paper wrapping. The dumpling skin was sticking to the top of my mouth. Pork and mushroom dumpling 燒 賣 (siu1 maai6*2) Shumai were well prepared and the mushroom were, gratefully, small and not overpower the dumpling. I am not a mushroom enthusiast. Beef rice noodle roll rice roll 牛肉腸 (ngau4 juk6 coeng4*2) texture was too chewy from the thickness. The rice noodle was average, but appear smaller covering the meat. Spare ribs with basil sauce 欖 汁 排 骨 (laam5*2 zap1 paai4 gwat1) - it was not swimming in oil and there were minimal meat, but minimal non-meat fat. Beef ball in bean curd 山竹牛肉丸 (saan1 zuk1 ngau4 juk6 jyun2) - it was not served piping hot, but average Unfortunately, Jade Harbor do not offer my favorite traditional Dim Sum dessert dishes: Mango Pudding 芒 果 布甸 (mong4 gwo2 bou3 din1) Almond pudding 杏 仁 豆 腐 (hang6 jan4 dau6 fu6)

We wrote down what we want and the orders start rolling in. We got some delicious dumplings and pork buns. The scallion pancake was light and fluffy.
