Cafe Atlantico Dim Sum brunch

[jes]

We are going for brunch there for my birthday Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. Any menu recommendations? We like everything. Should we do the tasting menu or just order a la carte? Looking at the menu online a lot of the vegetarian selections seem more interesting but I'm open to anything.

Going a la carte is good if you don't want to spend an enormous amount of time, or can't get there in the alloted time, plus you'd like to save a few bucks.

If you are not time-sensitive, then the cost will be a little more, and you will get the full-blown experience.

I've done both the tasting menu and the a la carte, and I honestly don't think you can go wrong either way. The dishes are all so good! I did enjoy the tasting menu experience. Things were brought out at a good pace, and our waiter explained what everything was, so I'd lean towards going with that.

I went with a group of friends months ago - I was the only vegetarian. It was wonderful. My ONLY issue was how egg-heavy it was with the runny eggs. I like fully cooked eggs, but that's just me! Everything was great. I loved it and would love to go back.

They also have wonderful cocktails, but try that non-alcoholic dominican drink (I think) - SO good.

Tasting menu is definitely worth it - I think it's a great value for what you get.
