    Your approach of visualy focusing on the food and well informed commentary is greatly appreciated. During my working years in San fran and Oakland the pan fried noodles were my usual goto for lunch with the other guys. A glorious dish

    I don't always eat there when I stay at the Rio, but even with Chinatown just a few blocks away, KJ has long been a pretty solid, relatively affordable option for dim sum.

    You're GREAT at tempting us with those dim sum delicacies.:) KJ Dim Sum in Vegas with the push-carts is great. There's also a location inside Harrah's in San Diego and their food is just as good but with a very limited dim sum section that you order off the menu. Looking forward to more of your food videos!

    The Chinese restaurant at Rio is the real thing. Besides dim sum, they serve authentic Cantonese Chinese cuisine. Certain dishes are very reasonable. I don't mind the high price of some dishes when they are well made.

      KJ's pretty good. But Rainbow Kitchen, New Asian Bbq, Taste, and a couple of others may be equivalent or better. Also KJ is not the highest priced. Here's a link to one of my videos to give you an idea of what's available in Vegas ua-cam.com/video/PwLsWdSVH14/v-deo.html

      I would if I knew. I only know a few items. Usually the carts come around and I point to whatever looks good. Also most of the people that push carts speak limited English. If you really want to know the Dim Sum items, here's a good place to start... www.thefoodranger.com/what-is-dim-sum-the-ultimate-guide/ .... but I never knew all the names, because it didn't really matter when ordering.

    price of dimsum has gone up these past couple of years . the prices listed are actually not too bad compared to up here in the Seattle area. most stuff starts at $5 and up these days for the small. that scallop dish though was way overpriced
