Koi Garden – Dublin
Koi Palace (鲤鱼门) at Daly City has been famous for its Cantonese cuisine. Someone even named it the best Chinese restaurant in Bay Area. It opened an branch restaurant in Dublin, Koi Garden, which is much closer to us. We finally got chance to have a Dim Sum lunch today.
The city of Dublin has a lot of new establishments. The view is open, the street is wide and clean, even the Chinese stores are more trendy than many other places. We waited about 20 mintues to get a table. It’s a little crowd inside. You’ll get food faster to order the Dim Sum instead of waiting for the waiters to bring them to you. We tried a couple of new dishes, besides traditional “凤爪 (chicken feet)” and “排骨 (ribs)”. The Dim Sum are fresh, hot, certainly among the best we have tasted. I am not sure if it is much better than the other new Cantonese restaurant, 顺峰渔港 (Asian Pearl), that we recently checked at Froment; or if it is not as good as the original restaurant. Only the food critics can tell, I guess.
