Dim sum champion, so long

Pumpkin dumplings, scallop dumplings and xiao long bao |
Without a doubt, Park Chinois is my No. 1 choice for Chinese cuisine in London, it has a really strong dim sum offering, as well as some high-class stir fry and seafood items, it is the whole package as far as food-wise. When the news broke out that the dim sum head chef Ming was leaving the business, it was sad news for me as I enjoyed so many of his creations over the years. For my 28th visit, I went pretty much full-on dim sum mode and ordered almost the entire dim sum menu, which in a way was a good tribute to enjoy Chef Ming's creation one last time.

As expected, I had an outstanding dim sum feast as everything was refined and delicious. I am fully aware the price tag at Park Chinois is high, but you get what you pay for as in return, you are getting some finely crafted dim sum, using top-class ingredients. Now that Chef Ming has left the house, I wonder if Park Chinois can maintain its dim sum standard, something I will find out in the near future when I head back there. Till then, I wish Chef Ming all the best.
