Had to have Dim Sum while in DC 😀

It was like the old dim sum places in NYC! Turns out it's because most of the staff is from NYC, hehehe

Tripe
Never had it this way. It's good

Chicken Feet
The only complaint is that they were cut in half, so more bone fragments. But taste great.

Sticky Rice
It needed more meat but was good

Shrimp Roll
Ah, memories of my childhood in NY Chinatown

Eggplant stuffed with Shrimp
This is good

Crispy Pork
So crispy! Delicious

Roast Duck
This skin was crispy been forever since I've had crispy skin on the duck

Salt and Pepper Squid
Usually avoid ordering this because it's usually gummy. But this was delicious

Definitely come back next time we're in DC

Day 8 in DC, 4 museums, a park and other sightseeing walks, we are exhausted! So we stayed in the hotel for delivery 😀

YUM PED YANG
Roasted duck shredded and tossed with ginger, scallions, celery, cilantro, and chili paste in a spicy lime juice.

THAI STAR
Minced chicken and bell peppers sautéed with fresh chili sauce and accompanied by whole shrimp and Hoi Jor (shrimp, minced chicken, and herbs blended to perfection, wrapped in tofu, deep fried).

This must have tasted amazing freshly served in the restaurant because the driver seemed to have gotten lost because it look longer than GrubHubs estimate of delivery, so it came just lukewarm and it's still amazingly delicious!

Next time in DC we will have to go in the the restaurant.

Service was good but the food was meh.

Birria - this was the best! Very good. This I would go back for!

Pulled Pork - too smokey, it was like tasting burnt wood... It does not have much flavor, I had to pour all of the pickled onion and salsa on the taco. And added the Birria sauce to make it taste better.

Mushroom - the mushroom was smaller than the taco shell, not worth it! And has no flavor... unless you are vegetarian, I say skip it.

We've been here many times and never disappointed us.

Love the Bang Bang Shrimp.

Had the specials. Artic Char and Butterfish. Both dishes were delicious.

Service is always excellent.

Cute restaurant. Hostess was not very friendly... The server was nice but hard to get...

I love Thai food, so this was not very good... Drunken Noodle was super salty, and why is it so dark... The peanut sauce on the salad was not good, neither of us liked it...

Coconut Shrimp was ok, but I didn't like the sauce, but hubby loved it, so that's all that matters since it was his meal.

I should have known better when we didn't see a single Asian person, but we were hungry...
