New Snacks at Dim Sum Garden
I love Dim Sum Garden, I really do. I love that their dishes are cheap and tasty. I love that they have a big menu and that they are always adding things. So it was about time I checked out some of their new menu items.
The taro with dried fruits was not well received by the crowd due to its heaviness, but I was into it. There didn’t seem to be much dried fruit in there. The big thick mush ball of lightly sweet taro might be better for a breakfast though.
The turnip cake was how I like it, flakey outside with shreds of savory turnip inside.
A sucker for marinated gluten, we also picked up an order of their version. Though not as good as Sakura’s, Dim Sum Garden’s still satisfied that weird meatlike savoryness that I love about the dish.
When at Dim Sum Garden, noodles are a must. Though not a new dish, I tried the pork with pickled vegetables for the first time and definitely appreciated the veggies themselves and the hint of pickled-ness that permeated the whole dish.

I walk by that place all the time. I always wonder if it was good or not. I’m going to go there tomorrow during lunch to pick up the taro and turnip bun.
