The 7 Best Dim Sum Restaurants In Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

There was a time when you could head to Shanghai Chinese Restaurant in Highland and order off big metal carts roaming the dining room, packed full of dim sum specialties every weekend. The cart days are gone, but the full menu is still available a la carte. And we’ve found that you can recreate part of the experience by ordering three to four more items than you need—all at once—and then play a game of plate Tetris to fit everything onto your table. It’s also one of the more reasonably priced spots on this list, meaning it won’t be long until this is in your weekly rotation. - nicolai mccrary
