![]() ![]() We paid $50 for 2 very hungry people, which is very cheap for the quality of food. You have to flag down waiters for ordering dishes and additional sauces. Canadian lobsters, King crabs, coral shrimps, turbot and other live seafood are shipped from all over the world to Chicago every Thursday by air and stored them in our 5 gallon water tank to ensure freshness - our signature dish, the DOLO style seafood combo includes 5 pounds of fresh crab legs,crawfishes, clams, shrimps, sausages, corns and potatoes served in a homemade. There are no bowls or spoons, only plates and chopsticks (unacceptable). Service was really, really awful, even by Chinese restaurant standards. Keep in mind this restaurant specializes in Cantonese cuisine, not Shanghainese, Szechuan or other regions in China (yes, the cuisines are very different). Given the quality of this noodle dish, I highly doubt their dinner dishes are worthwhile. The beef ho fun was the worst it had too much noodle with few beef slices and barely any vegetables, and the ho fun was all stuck together. We will try the baked BBQ pork buns (a la Tim Ho Wan in HK) next time. The fried dishes were mediocre the BBQ pork turnover had too much dough. We were especially impressed by the xiaolongbao, which held together and had a spoonful of tasty broth inside. All the steam dishes were excellent - high filling-to-dough ratio, thin but durable dough, and fresh ingredients for the filling. We ordered some classics - shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, xiaolongbao, rice roll with shrimp, beef ho fun, egg custard buns, BBQ pork turnover, and fried taro. We had to wait 30 min for a table and enjoyed exploring China Town and the Asian supermarket next door (yummy and cheap Asian snacks) while we waited. There was a long queue, which dissipated quickly. We came here for a Sunday brunch (typical dim sum time) in May. I have probably sampled the world's best dim sum in both Vancouver and Hong Kong so I know a thing or two about high quality dim sum. Left this place thinking this is CHINATOWN? Sad, so very sad.Being of Asian descent and from Vancouver, Canada, I'm very picky about Asian food, and dim sum in particular. Even tho it looked unkempt from the outside we thought the upstairs dining area would be different but it wasn't. YUK! We picked this place because of Yelp reviews. Lao Peng You’s fresh dumplings arrive in a hot and sour broth. Food was good but couldn't stop thinking whether kitchen area passed health inspection. If you're a germaphobic.do not come here. The women's restroom had two stalls (one was disgusting). The windows looked like they've NEVER been cleaned. The venue is so very dirty outside as it is inside. We were probably there for 1 1/2 hrs and not once did the server come over to see if we needed anything. Pork 2 Photos 20 Reviews 5. Not a hello, how are you, nothing welcoming!!!
