Interesting about the soup dumplings. I have never had them or heard of them. The location you went to is also the closest to my house. We have been known to go to South Coast Plaza for shopping. I'm going to definitely put this place on my "list", but now I want Chinese food for dinner. We don't have any really good Chinese places in Long Beach.
Definitely give it a try. It's a little different from your regular Chinese food as this is more Taiwanese, but in my opinion, it's better than regular Chinese food.
Man, I so want to try that dim sum place. It's really hard to get good dim sum here. I'm not even sure I have had good dim sum. I think the place I ate at in San Francisco was pretty good. It was at least full of Asians. Maybe we will have to make a detour to hit it. I have never had soup dumplings, but everyone raves about them.
A restaurant full of Asians is definitely a good indication!! LOL. In SF, the dim sum is pretty good as well, but most dim sum restaurants in the US are Cantonese. This one just happens to be Taiwanese and serves Shanghai soup dumplings
Glad you got to get over to get some of your favorite dim sum! I'm not sure if I have ever had any but it seems interesting!
I was glad to be able to go here since we don't have this back where I live! So I got my fix!
Glad you made it for your RSR FP! Looks like such a fun ride. I wartched some vlogs of it. I'm sure in a few years my boys will be fine with it. I'm working on a way to get there in a couple or few years.
Such a good ride. Definitely worth a trip out west especially when your boys are older!
So convenient that the hotel was right there so you could easily change.
Ooooo....suspense.......
It was! So convenient! I wish WDW had resorts that you could walk to that quickly. I guess Contemporary is walk-able from MK but it's a LONG walk.
I rarely do any water rides for this reason - no splash and no KRR. I prefer not to be wet!
Those are super cute magic shots!
Thanks! I love the balloon one!
I've never heard of that place, but it looks fantastic! I've only ever had dim sum twice, both times in Seattle, but they weren't soup dumplings, they sound yummy!
And they are also beautiful!
Seattle has fantastic Asian food...or so I'm told, LOL, I've never been there! But I see pictures from friends who have been and the food looks good!
Wow, you are a very well traveled lady!
Thanks! I traveled more as a kid because my dad's job moved him around a bit. Japan, Singapore, and New York. I also traveled back and forth to Singapore every summer till college. Once college ended, and I started working, it's so hard to get time off! And now WDW is my "world" hehe.
Sounds great! We went to Dim Sum locally with some friends and it was great, so if we make it to CA again, I'll have to keep that place in mind - those soup dumplings sound wonderful!
It's definitely a destination for dumplings!
It really is! She is committed to having great meets and pictures!
She's already planning outfits for August. She wants to wear her Lilo dress and she wants me to be Stich (haha) and we're gonna have breakfast at 'Ohana!
Okay, your sister's dresses are the cutest things! I'm super jealous!
So I already knew we were going to eat at Cafe Orleans when we go back this summer but dang those parmesan fries <3 <3 <3
Haha she would definitely agree with that! She buys them from Torrid!
Those fries were delicious! You can't go wrong with garlic and Parmesan on anything!
Ok definitely a serious advantage of staying at the GC is being able to change after Grizzly Peak!! Can't tell you how many times we've come off soaked only to walk around the parks looking like drowned rats
That was the biggest perk! We were able to do short breaks during the day because it was so close! And I hate being wet so it was a relief.
Your sister finds the most adorable outfits!!! Any idea where she got the dress she was wearing when she met Ariel?
Yup! She gets most of her outfits from Torrid/Hot Topic. But she also gets stuff custom made on Etsy. Her minnie dress she wore to the Plaza Inn breakfast was custom made from a seller on Etsy.
Mmmm.....dumplings.....all the nom......so tasty!
It was indeed! I wish I could have some right now!
