      Thanks Joan! It's on Susan's list of favs too! It's also nice they are experimenting with different types of dishes than the usual dimsum fare! Keeps everything interesting when we visit! -Bill

      Ha! You don't like chicken feet? Try duck feet! You got to eat the webbing between the toes! Good when they nice and tender. Bad when they tough and chewy! -Bill

    The Korean crispy seaweed roll is filled with glass noodles and other stuffings....didn't know Chinese dim sum had those seaweed rolls....

      I think the cook was rolling some other kind of weed when he came up with that. Not one of my favorites. But not bad either. -Bill

    Dang!...this made me hungry!.....Too bad there are no dim sum restaurants past Chinatown, going west.....nothing in Pearl City, Waipio, Mililani, Wahiawa or the Northshore....to eat good dim sum, got to trek to Honolulu.....!!!

    Tai Pan Dim Sum is one on the best places for dim sum!

    • @whatiate2000
      @whatiate2000  3 місяці тому +1

      Thanks Nelson! It certainly is one of the best! Susan introduced it to me just before we got married, and I've been hooked! Ironically, I used to walk past the place when I was stationed in HI in the 80s with the Army! She is just amazed that I missed out on all the great food places while I was there as a young troop! -Bill

    One thing I noticed is all dim sum restaurants offer the orders 3 per order....when dining with two people....then one gets 2 pieces the other only 1....done intentionally so you have to order 2 orders.....clever!....lol

      It actually balances out at the end of the brunch. Usually we have 4 dishes, each with one left over. I let Susan pick her favorite and I'll consume the rest. -Bill

    Bill do you have a son? You look just like Wayne who’s another content food reviewer…I thought that he was your son 😂

      Nope. We don't have any kids yet. What's Wayn's channel? I've run into a few of my dopplegangers over the years. Aside from identical twins hey say statistically in a state the size of California, you might have at least 6 people who match you on a DNA test. That was O.J.'s defense on how his blood matched DNA at the crime scene btw. -Bill
