This is the! best! Chinese! restaurant! in! Freiburg! Not only because their dishes are fresh,…read morehomemade, and delicious, but also because they serve Cantonese cuisine, as opposed to the other places in Freiburg which serve Thai or Vietnamese variations.
It's better to make a reservation, as it gets very crowded, but the staff is kind and will try to accommodate you if you show up at rush hour unexpected. You might get a tiny table against the wall, but you will still be served efficiently.
The dim sum is out of this world. They come close after the best dim sum places we've been to in Chinatown in New York, Montréal, and Ottawa. No exaggeration.
The portions are generous, the food is clearly homemade (no frozen dim sum or microwaved rice here!), and the ingredients fresh. They have a better choice and better prices for drinks than the other Asian-fusion places mentioned earlier (€2.50 for a delicious mango, litchi, or goyava drink, as opposed to €3.80 for watered down versions elsewhere.)
Some reviewers have mentioned the decor negatively. We loved it. The restaurant is covered in carved wood panels from the 50s, which I like much better than cold, black & white emptyish designer spaces which seem to sprout everywhere recently. There are always Chinese students for dinner, which is a good sign! The manager speaks English and is very friendly.
