I like coming here so that I don't have to deal with getting up at 9:30 AM to secure a table at one of the banquet halls in 8th ave/Chinatown, but can still practice my Hoisan Wah which is the lingua franca here. The ladies are still temperamental as ever, but I like that challenge -- jook sing beware, if you try English, they'll gossip behind your back, but try your tongue at Chinese and you'll be rewarded with smiles and warmth at maintaining cultural ties to the motherland. This was probably my 6th visit, and the first in a few years, but the dimsum was still as consistent as ever. The baos are still high quality and the line is still as busy as ever, which I take as a good sign. If you're in the area and don't want the fuss of chasing down dimsum carts, try out Good Family Bakery.

This place is a hidden gem in Brooklyn for takeout dim sum and asian baked goods. In Brooklyn,…read morethere a few Chinatowns: 8th Ave (Sunset Park), 86th Street (Bensonhurst) and Ave U (Homecrest). This Asian bakery is located at Ave U which is one of the smallest of the three but their food is so authentic and delicious. If I were to recommend a few things at this restaurant, in no particular order: - Fried Shrimp Balls - Shrimp Rice Noodle Rolls - Century Egg and Pork Congee - Lo Mai Gai (Glutinous Rice Chicken) - Sponge Cake There are a lot of options to choose from and unfortunately the menu isn't very helpful as all the choices aren't translated but you can always try and ask or point to the foods that you want to try. If this is your first time and you want to err on the safe side, you definitely can't go wrong with the above choices. Unfortunately they don't have indoor dining so you will have to find another place to eat it but it will be well worth it! Pretty sure this place is cash only so make sure to bring cash! Hoping you like this place as much as I do.

The lady that helped me went to the kitchen so I asked another. The lady that helped me came back and both of them said I didn't get any stream rice noodle dish. I'm like I got one and I want soy sauce with it. She said I don't need soy sauce and if I want it is 25 cent. I just left. I spent $15 there. I got the rice noodle dish, ha gow, shu mai and fun gao. I also got 2 bread and a milk tea. All I'm asking for is soy sauce and she's going to charge me 25 cent...? This is bad business. I want soy sauce with my dimsum dish... who are they to say that I don't need it...? I will not be going back. BTW I've gotten similar dish from other bakeries and was given soy sauce.

My husband also enjoyed the pork floss with scallion bun. We also tried some noodles and dimsum items. Noodles are totally skippable. We tried two types and both are tasteless and boring. Dimsum wise, siu mai is not bad, sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf is decent, radish cake (law bak go) is very heavy in white pepper taste I think but also decent.

Updated review from 10 years ago…read more.. THE GOOD ---------------- + Still the same ol' restaurant it has been for more than a decade. Not much has changed, which is a VERY good thing. + Dim sum is as good as it gets here. You can't go wrong with any of their rice rolls, pork and shrimp dumplings, shrimp dumplings, chive dumplings, sticky rice in lotus leaf, chicken feet, spring rolls, etc. It's ALL good!!!! + The BBQ meats are also as good as they ever have been as well - roast pork, roast pig and roast duck are all super fresh if you get here early enough to buy them. Just ask for the fattier meats and you're golden. + STILL the best pan fried noodles you will get ANYWHERE. Always super fresh, piping hot, crunchiest noodles ever, plenty of supporting ingredients. Go for the shredded chicken pan fried noodle, you won't regret it. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Prices have definitely gone up a bit over the years, but it's common everywhere. They are pretty much on par with other Chinese restaurants in the area. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Unfortunately, they no longer have dim sum carts going around on weekends during dim sum hours. Like many restaurants, they have converted to having customers order on paper by ticking off what they want to order :( Sadly, the days of the dim sum cart are slowly dying and it got Wing Hing too.

I came here to have a dinner with my family. We reserved a table for ten and we ordered seven…read moredifferent dishes along with two dim sum dishes. The restaurants was very lively and spacious which I appreciate. We got a large corner table with the turntable in the middle. We started the meal with two chicken feet dim sum and Mah Lai Goh. The dim sum while looked nice did not have much flavor. One of the things you have to watch out for are the dim sum cart ladies would try to put dim sum dishes you didn't even ask for on your table so you have to make sure to protect your stamp card. You will be charged for items you didn't even ask for. The seven dishes we ordered were: Shrimp with Broccoli and Walnut, Seafood Pan Fried Noodles, Roast Pork, Young Chow Fried Rice, Buddha Delight, Ginger Scallion Chicken, Steamed Fish. The waiter was nice enough but he was really trying to upsell and have us order more than what we ask for. He screwed up two of the seven dishes. I ended up getting the Roast Pork Ping Poon which is the dish with Roast Pork and other meats and jelly fish after I specifically made it very clear that I did not want that particular dish. When it arrived, he tried to make an excuse claiming since we have ten people, it was best to have this dish since the roast pork by itself would be too plain. I wrote this one off since he agreed to charge me as if I got a Roast Pork instead of the platter. The other dish they screwed up was the Chicken Dish. They gave me some Chicken with brown sauce. I just wanted a very basic chopped whole chicken. They then claimed they don't have a basic chicken with scallions and ginger so I had to suck it up and take this dish. I would have been disappointed but the Chicken Dish was actually not bad so all was not loss. The dishes to never order: Buddha Delight- This dish reeks of strong MSG and salt. It's not much green veggies in the dish except mushrooms, more mushrooms and mushrooms. I would skip this dish if I were you. You're basically paying for canned mushrooms on a plate. Young Chow Fried Rice- Seems basic enough but no flavor. It does look good though. After not much shrimp. In the entire dish, you get maybe two pieces of shrimp. Not worth the price or the space in your stomach. Roast Pork Platter- The roast pork didn't have much meat on it. It was very fatty and the adjoining meats were no good. They have the pork slices, the jelly fish, the seaweed and the beef. All were sour and not tasty. Never get this dish. You are wasting your money. The best dishes: Shrimp with Broccoli and Walnuts- Even though the walnut was burnt, the shrimp with mayonnaise sauce was awesome! Steamed Red Grouper- They only had three types of fish to choose from so I had to go with this one since my mother did not like the other fishes. It was surprisingly a good choice. It was very fresh. This one is good. The fish was steamed just right and the meat was very succulent Okay Dishes: Seafood Pan Fried Noodle- It was basic enough but they drench the sauce over the noodles so the noodles got soggy fast. Definitely not something you wanna take home if you don't finish it in the restaurant. Chicken with Brown Sauce- The chicken was very large and meaty. The sauce was not bad. It was actually better than the plain chicken they chop up for you. After the banquet, they give you some sliced oranges. I give this place three stars for the service and the food. I would come back here again but not for the dim sum and the bad dishes. If you want the ordinary dishes like the roast duck, roast pork or anything of the likes, this would not be the place for it.

The food is good but wished the service matched too. I try to avoid the weekends. I generally come for a weekday dim sum or dinner, it is usually a reasonable waiting time if busy. They are more equipped to handle smaller crowds as quality drops even if it is just a little busy. The servers are not proactive, have to ask for utensils, napkins, tea refills even on a weekday night with a few tables seated. Their dim sum includes all your tasty classics. The shumai, spareribs, rice rolls and more. For dinner, I love the fresh seafood, thick cut short ribs, typhoon crab and anything that is fresh and in season.

Small cherng fun store located on 18th Ave Brooklyn Bensonhurst with limited tables and seating…read more This place is CASH ONLY. Reviewing based off of the cherng fun only. They don't have anything premade so expect a little wait since the cherng fun is made to order. I recommend calling ahead if you want to place a large order. I think the prices are a little more expensive than what I'm use to. When you place your order, you get to choose if you want to add toppings, if you don't add toppings your cherng fun will come plain as a default aside from the meat/flavor you choose. There's the free option of scallion, cilantro, or bean sprouts. You could add either one or all without additional charge which I thought was nice. They also had premium toppings too for an additional charge. I added scallions to all of the following: - Chicken/Beef: Both meats are good options, solid choice if you're looking for a good cherng fun. The meat is lightly seasoned and they give a good amount in the cherng fun too. - Beef with pickled veggies: My favorite out of the mix so far, the beef paired so well with the pickled veggies. The pickled veggies had a nice crunch to it despite being steamed. I also liked the amount of filling that came with it. - Curry fishballs w/ steamed cherng fun: The curry smells so good, you can taste the curry flavor in the fishballs and they actually had a small kick of spice to it. The order came with 8 fishballs. They drizzle a bit of curry sauce on top but I kind of wished they put more curry sauce because it wasn't enough to coat all the noodles. - Dried shrimp: Classic dried shrimp cherng fun, tad bit on the salty side but still good - Shrimp with salted duck yolk egg: Interesting combo, the grittiness from the salted duck yolk was a bit much and it made the texture of the cherng fun seem a little rough. Probably wouldn't get this unless craving. - Mixed mushrooms: A little bitter? didn't mix that well with the cherng fun. Didn't have a strong umami flavor either. Not horrible but would not recommend. Overall I thought the cherng fun was good. The cherng fun is not the dim sum style, it's the hand rolled/scrapped style. They have a lot of options but of the flavors didn't hit for me. Texture wise, it was very thin and smooth with the right amount of bounce to it. You can tell how thin the rolls are when you really look at it. I thought the soy sauce they provided coated all the layers nicely. It wasn't oily and all the rolls had a nice fragrant rice smell to it. Comparable to Joe's or West King rice roll, close to that quality. I just didn't think they were as stretchy as the other places. Worth trying since the quality is there and there's so many options

When we arrived the waiter seated us immediately and was very pleasant. Asked us right away what tea would like and gave us menus to look at. Of course we ordered their lobster with noodles and for an extra lobster, the dish came out to $33. Not bad. We also ordered a few dim sum dishes and I have to say, all of their dim sum dishes were spot on. I love the chicken feet. It was tender, packed with flavor and I don't think they used color dye to make it red. That was definitely a plus. We also enjoy their tripe. It was tender, not chewy and also full of umami flavor. Their pork ribs was juicy, plump and not fatty either. Additionally, we ordered their fried stuffed tofu/pepper/eggplant dish and that too was so good. Love the taste of the fermented black bean sauce. Overall, I definitely recommend this restaurant. It's so good that I plan on visiting again soon so I can taste their other yummy dishes. My aunt and mom went and they too gave this place a thumbs up.

Food: The dim sum is just okay here. My go-to for dim sum is usually Fortune Palace on 20th Ave,…read morebut since the wait was too long, we ended up here. There are no carts here; you mark off which dim sum dishes you want on a paper menu and they bring it to you at your table. The dim sum was not steaming hot, which was disappointing. The quality and flavor was not as good as Fortune Palace either. It makes sense why this place didn't have a wait while Fortune Palace was packed and such a long wait for a table. We tried a variety of dim sum and nothing really stood out. The crispy rice noodle dish was probably the best thing in this meal. Perhaps their dinner food is better, but I won't be returning here for dim sum. Service: Service was very average. The staff didn't come to check in on us throughout the meal to see if we needed anything. We needed water and some sauce during the meal, but no one was around to ask. Ambiance: The restaurant is a good size and they have two levels with private rooms on the second floor. The place is good for both smaller and large groups. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant for dim sum.
