Early morning hunger pangs called and so I brought my mom here before she started making breakfast. I've passed by here countless times before but finally giving in and it was made all the better when I found out they do accept non-cash form payment, always a plus.

Amongst the crowd of mostly early morning seniors, the room itself wasn't over the top. It was certainly better than a lot of places but still mundane and spartan.

We ordered quite a few dishes off the order sheet for the two of us - all the dim sum standbys. Portions are plentiful and the price can't be argued. The quality is there too given the prices but I found the taste to be milder on nearly each dish (even the soy sauce poured over the rice rolls were mild), but likely to coincide with the throngs of asian seniors eating here and their milder palettes. Not a problem.

Service is another usual suspect whereby minimal service is provided, but they are quick to respond to callovers.

Seven tasty dishes for $24, can't go wrong here.

I have eaten here a few times and enjoyed it. However the restaurant can get very busy and then service becomes mediocre...try to get someone's attention!The dim sum menu is on the table, no push carts here, although a small menu, the classic Cantonese dim sum is served well. My friend is obsessed with eating chicken wings at a dim sum joint and I usually suffer the indignity of eating sub standard food(since he's my chauffeur, I humor him); however I must admit that the wings are pretty good here. The dumplings do not try to outsize other dim sum places(some places make gigantic dumplings to impress you). Parking is tough, a small lot in the back and Hastings Street to contend with. The overall quality is good enough that I keep coming back. It's better than the Pelican and close to the Happy Valley, plus the prices are decent. This restaurant is a keeper, just be forgiving about the slow service(sometimes).
