"When a dim sum urge hits, head to Excellent Cuisine. This Jade District spot is buzzy and ’90s-era banquet-style with chandeliers, lots of round tables (no one will make you sit with strangers here), and servers pushing tiered carts so you and your group—we recommend bringing a crew—can peek at the selections before making a move. The menu is full of nothing but hits, especially the translucent har gow filled with pleasantly springy shrimp, or the visually appealing red shrimp rice rolls stuffed with prawn mousse. Excellent Cuisine also serves adorable and just-sweet-enough desserts, like wobbly coconut pudding shaped like ducks and pigs." - krista garcia
