Comments: My current favorite dim sum house, Mei Sum is a solid place in terms of overall basic quality and scrumptiousness. Best are the scallop dumplings, and their shumai and har gow are reliably excellent; don’t be afraid to roll up on the front counter to close your check or have a look at what they have in the front steam table. Good loh ba go! Less wild selection that some of the other shops.

Mostly long tables with community seating. A wide variety of sweet baked pastries, if you go for that kinna thing. This was interesting: a kind of rice ball in a skin:
