Dim Sum

Vancouver is packed with restaurants serving dim sum. Over the years, I have tried over a dozen dim sum places, but no place matches the freshness and elegance of Kirin Restaurant's dim sum.

  
Kirin has four locations in the city (Downtown, Vancouver West Side, Richmond and New Westminster). I am not sure if all locations serve dim sum (the website is not very clear on that), but the one I have dim sum at is the Vancouver West side restaurant (in City Square Mall).



The dim sum menu features monthly selections. Some are the regular items you find in many dim sum places, others are quiet unique and one may have to be adventurous to try. But no matter what you order, expect taste, nice presentation, little grease and efficient service. As a major carb lover, nothing beats the Chinese doughnuts wrapped with rice noodles.
