The carts will keep coming, so take a few at a time. Remember the first time you went to a Brazilian steakhouse and you filled up on the salad bar and chicken and sausage, only to have the ribeye guy come by? Same. Dim sum at Oriental Pearl is served on carts, and it is easy to get caught up in the excitement of all the carts stopping by and wanting to try everything. I will say that pacing yourself is important. Oddly enough, Peyton, 8, and Cricket, 5, loved the hot tea and we drank the whole pot. First thing, hot tea is offered because that is part of the tradition. I was so pleasantly surprised how adventurous my kids were to all the offerings. The menu has traditional and familiar items (General Tso, Sweet and Sour) as well as some exotic items for the adventurous (Shark fin, Jelly Fish Salad) … Parents can feel good about taking the entire family, feeding them well and not breaking the bank while having a nice ethnic experience and having a bite of something new!” Scott Lamphere, corporate chef at Gordon Food Service, gave it this endorsement: ‘The price point at the Oriental Pearl is perfect for a family budget and it’s a super clean restaurant. My family wanted to try it, so I reached out to chefs and foodies to collect their favorite restaurants and Oriental Pearl was at the top of the list. It’s traditionally a weekend brunch, but some restaurants serve dim sum during the week. The variety in flavors, textures and portion size makes is easy for children to find a favorite. For those who are unfamiliar, dim sum is reminiscent of Asian tapas, offering countless small plates of dumplings, rolls, buns and soups.
