Dim Sum at Four Seas, San Francisco, CA

After being stymied by long lines at another dim sum joint, Giao did the unthinkable and picked a random place in Chinatown. After walking up the stairs in the entry, and being greeted with a bright large dining room (suspiciously empty), a musty scent slammed into his face. Unfortunately it was a portent of what to come.

We won't bother with the dish description because every piece of dim sum was uniformly gross. Giao could not finish one of these dishes. All the meat tasted old, both in how long it must have been sitting around under heat lamps and the age which the animal in question dropped dead. The spare ribs were coated in an unidentifiable gag inducing goo. The paltry $13 that Giao had to pay for this meal was about fifty dollars too much. He counts himself lucky to have escaped without any sort of food sickness. BANNED!

BTW, Giao had to use his iPhone to take these pictures, and while it has the best mobile web browsing, it's not so good with the food photography. Just count yourself lucky that you don't have high res versions of this meal.
