Dimsum at Koi Palace

I heard so much about Koi Palace in Daly city and here we were... we got there around noon on Saturday and it was so busy at the restaurant. Most of the people who come here are chinese from all over the bay area... this is my first time here so i was expecting exceptional dimsum. we got a number and were standing around waiting to be called... about one and half hrs later (around 1:30pm.) we got a table. i was famish!

all the dimsum were very good... we had the steamed stuffed tofu skin, dry scallop dumplings, shrimps in steamed rice crepe, char siu (bbq pork) in steamed rice crepe, shrimp dumplings (ha cao), chinese crunchy donut in steamed rice crepe, shark fin dumpling soup, char siu steamed buns, soft tofu with ginger sugar syrup.... i think that's everything... oh, and 1 order of the chicken feet, i did not try. i didn't have my camera with me so no photos this time but everything was pretty and tasty. i have dimsum a few times in San Francisco but many dishes here were 1st time for me. and it was inexpensive too... i thought it was going to be at least $40 per person but it was $16 including 20% tip. i enjoyed the food but the wait was a bit gruesome for me...
