HK Dim Sum

HK Dim Sum - Review - Chinatown - Houston - The Infatuation

Crammed into the first floor of the Don Huang Plaza of Chinatown, HK Dim Sum serves classic (but cartless) Cantonese-style dim sum. The food here might not be the best dim sum in town, but everything is consistent and made-to-order. Plus, the dining room stays pleasantly quiet with only the sound of order-sheet scribbling and light muzak heard between bites. Being small, HK makes a great solo lunch or casual dinner spot for dim sum like classic shrimp or pork shumai, har gow, and fluffy steamed buns. Our favorite, however, is the savory chicken congee with massive hunks of ginger that makes us feel warm and loved, especially during Houston’s short winters. Go here for a quick dumpling fix, or before indulging in one of the many amazing dessert spots scattered around the plaza. photo credit: Chelsea Thomas - Chelsea Thomas
