Best Dim Sum in Boston?

I visit Boston regularly and I wondered whether one can get decent Dim Sum in the city. Thank you.

    try dim sum at hei la moon. it's actually located just outside of the boundaries of chinatown, and closer to south station. i like it because its dim sum features unique items that i haven't seen at other places.

      thank you very much, I used to go to Chau Chow city, but the last few times it seemed kinda tired. I'm not there enough to really check out the neighborhood.

        i agree about hei la moon's great offerings. they even have some different desserts i've never had before, such as a black sesame gooey rice roll (looks like thick, slimy seaweed) and red bean jello parfaited between coconut jello. it's big, and they give you $5 back for using the parking lot next door. i even rode my bike there this weekend and parked it in a spot where a car couldn't fit in that lot. good luck -- you'll like it.

        Hi, rattango. Yes, you can get good dim sum. I like China Pearl a lot. Probably walking around Chinatown and seeing what looks good could work well.

          use the new fancy search function! Someone posts this same question about every week.
