Dim Sum at Mayflower Seafood Restaurant in San Francisco, CA
Giao's family was in town and we always like to go to dim sum when they are. Dim sum is a great option for a big family with lots of different palates, since there are so many options. I think the meal came to about $15 per person.
Stuffed Eggplant
Not our favorite, but others seemed to like it.
Tripe
Giao loves it, I don't.
Beef Brisket
The tender, long-simmered beef and boiled turnips in this dish make is a simple comfort food for us. We always get this, even if we have to order it off the menu because it is not coming around in a cart.
Fried Shrimp
A bit too breaded.
Fried Noodles
Rather bland, but good when dipped in chili sauce.
Tripe
Not my favorite, but Giao likes it.
Chicken Feet
Giao thinks these are a particularly good version.
Shrimp Noodles
A bit bland, but not bad.
Fried Tofu
Simple and tasty.
Sticky Rice
Studded with savory meat bits, this dish is was very comforting.
Siu Mai
These little pork dumplings are always our favorite. This version has large chunks of both pork and shrimp.
Har Gow
These tender shrimp dumplings are also quite good.
Garlic Chicken Wings
Standard chicken wings with a garlic kick.
