Jumbo Chinese Restaurant ^^½

4208 Rainier Ave S, Seattle

Date of visit: 6/25/07

What we had:
Dim sum

We got to the restaurant later than expected and just caught the tail end of dim sum being served. An over brewed jasmine tea was automatically brought to the table. Two standards, sui mai and ha gao were freshly steamed and flavorful though that wasn't the case for other dishes. A low budget version of lo mai gai, made only with pork was passable, but other dishes are probably more worth your while. The taro dumpling and char sui bao were tasty, but served at room temperature.

Before leaving, we attempted to order char sui bao, dan tat, and jin deui to take home. Instead of getting the baked goodies, we received a rather long lecture about how we should have ordered it at the beginning of the meal. Apparently the kitchen ran out of food, though seeing as how we were only 1 of 2 tables occupied, I'm not sure the food would have been available 20 minutes prior.
