"This is no-nonsense dim sum. The menu at Hong Kong Lounge in the Richmond covers everything you could possibly want when you wake up with an intense craving for things from a steamer. Plus, you can get in and out for less than $20 per person if you’re with a group. The pink-walled Cantonese spot is always packed with groups spinning lazy susans full of siu mai, sweet baked pork buns, and fried sticky rice. If there’s a crowd huddled in the entryway (there probably will be on weekends), things will move efficiently and that hankering for bao will be satisfied promptly." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
