CURRENCY CONVERTER

If you've never done dim sum, this traditional dining room in the very heart of Chinatown is the place to give it a try. From 8am to 3pm daily, waitresses wheel little carts loaded with Chinese delicacies past white-linen-covered tables. When you see something you like, you grab it. The final bill is based upon how many little dishes are left on your table. Dishes include spring rolls, hargow (shrimp dumplings) and shumai (steamed shrimp, beef, or pork dumplings), prawns wrapped in fresh white noodles, small steamed buns, sticky rice cooked in banana leaves, curried squid, and lots more. Parties of four or more are best -- that way you get to try each other's food.

Main courses C$10-C$35 (US$7.50-US$26); dim sum dishes C$2.50-C$6 (US$1.90-US$4.50).Open: Dim Sum Tue-Sun 8am-3pm; dinner Tues-Sun 5-9pm.Reservations recommended.Credit Cards: AE, MC, V.Bus: 19 or 22.
